lets use our blogs to promote eglug events

this might be a nasty idea, a kind of spam, or it could be totally meaningless (is anyone but eglug members reading our blogs anyway?).

this way we add more links, more places where people can stumble upon the news and we ride the aggregators.

patch for knoppix's hwsetup to obey /etc/hotplug/blacklist

#include "stdio.h" #include "string.h" main() { int n = 0; int size = 0; char *comment; char module[1024]; char blacklist[200][1024]; FILE *stream; if((stream = fopen ("/etc/hotplug/blacklist", "r")) != (FILE *)0) { while((fgets(module, 1023, stream)) != (char *)0 ) { comment = strchr(module, '#'); if (comment != 0) *comment = '\0'; comment = strchr(module, '\n'); if (comment != 0) *comment = '\0'; size = strlen(module); if (size < 2) continue; strcat (module , " \0"); strcpy(blacklist[n] , module); n++; fprintf(stderr, module); } } else { fprintf(stderr, "file does not exist"); } return 0; }

Stabilizing to prepare for alpha release

Well after a loooong time, I am starting to stabilize the system. Here are some of the highlights:

  • I replaced fam with gamin.
  • I updated to latest love sources. Check out the cool genetic scheduler.

  • I removed mono,beagle and tomboy. Yes they are very cool and I like them. but they are not ready yet.
  • I fixed the install script to use zenity.

patch to add reiser4 support to hal

I got tired of waiting for HAL to add support for the reiser4 filesystem. I found out that the change was in CVS. No problem I thought I'll update to the new vesion.

How complicated can it be? What I didn't know is that it depended on a newer ( CVS ) version of dus. Both CVS version of HAL and dbus were API incompatible with previous verions. That broke a long list of programs that depended on them. BAD MOVE.

I just noticed..

I just noticed that in the process of developing phaeronix and my own website, I have stopped actively participating in eglug.org

Sure I made a few comments here and there, but all the creative stuff went to my website.

It could be natural, but still I don't want to detach from this community. I am all for the team spirit, especially when the team is as brilliant as this one.

Therefore, I hereby vow to create more content on eglug.org even if it's to refer to stuff on my website, or even duplicate it.

Wireless by the nile

at last I'm on wireless, today we went out to test public access points in Cairo.

Al Sakia has what must be one of the best wireless spots in town, right now I'm sitting directly by nile writing this entry, while cairo is covered in a filthy smog cloud I'm enjoying a nice (relativly fresh) breeze and still get the benefit of all the spam, goatse, pr0n and eglug one gets at home.

EGLUG the peace and tolerance.

There is nothing called fight caused by the Election ,discussions show how healthy this community is, the community as whole is meant to be healthy with all it's targets ,not only for the administration-ship election .

I think it is courtesy not to be candidate .as administrators should resume the vision.
