drupal custom block to display random image

Fri, 25/03/2005 - 12:57am — Alaa

whirlpool asked me to make him a custom block that displays a random image from the galleries.

I like my code because it uses taxonomy module functions instead of doing db queries. 


< ?php
$albums = taxonomy_get_children(0, variable_get("image_nav_vocabulary", ""));

New HDD

Thu, 24/03/2005 - 11:06am — phaeronix

I got tired of running on my tight 40 GB space. I could either develop phaeronix or collect multimedia and ISOs and stuff. Naturally I chose phaeronix, which wasn't always fun. Suddenly I decided to exchange my 40 GB HDD for a capacious 80 GB WD, as an extra bonus the new HDD has one year warranty and is 7200RPM. It comes cheaper than what I bought the old one for (back when it was new). I might sell the old one as well as an extra 128 MB USB flash memory stick, so that my budget doesn't get a dent in it.

ndiswrapper and swsup2

Sat, 19/03/2005 - 8:07am — phaeronix

This fixes a compilation problem I had with compiling ndiswrapper on 2.6.11-love2. Probably only with SWSUP2 enabled as a module. The error is like this: 


CC [M] /home/phaeron/ndiswrapper-1.1/driver/ntoskernel.o
/home/phaeron/ndiswrapper-1.1/driver/ntoskernel.c:1112:61: macro "kthread_run" requires 5 arguments, but only 3 given

Murphy's law.. or not?

Thu, 17/03/2005 - 4:34pm — phaeronix

I attended all three days of the conference. I gave the "Linux Desktop" session on the second day. And I showed off phaeronix at the mini-expo on the third day.

The whole confrence was a quite good, and everyone was a star. We even got some TV ( el-mehwar channel I think ) and paper reporters. Isn't there anyone following the media coverage?

Despite all the hiccups that ascertain Murphy's law and that computers are unreliable, breaking down just when you need them, it turned out just fine.

Vaporware it is not.

Vaporware it is not.

I just can't wait for installing the gnome 2.10 release. I'll then freeze the desktop and do some light testing.

Hardware detection seems to have returned to my LFS calibre.

I got the system down to 690+ Mb. so there is no need for 900Mb CDs anymore. I did this by removing the portage trees and the installed package database.

I will provide them as separate download, after all, only whoever installs the system to the hard disk ( lucky me if he likes it so much ) will need them.
