Once I get my new mobile phone (Nokia 6600) I’ll start looking into blogging by phone/mail:

Comment spam

Thursday, September 30th, 2004

I got some comment spam over the last weeks and I was getting tired of removing/disapproving it manually,
so I installed this:
Threestrikes Spam blocker

If you try to comment and end up on the fbi site, let me know.

sick

Thursday, September 30th, 2004

Yes,
you guessed it.
Still sick.
Still not sure what it is.

Had a CT last monday.
Result ?
Nothing.
Well, as healthy as can be.

Visited my doc today.
Took a blood sample.
Will do some more x-rays tomorrow.

I don’t have an entry (or even an idea for an entry) yet:
PortaGame.com - Photo Contest: Win A GBA Movie Player

But I just triggered the whole german scene ;)

Wireless keyboard

This looks way cool:
Geekzone, mobile forums

But I wonder how this interferes with WiFi…

The official info:

I want one … too bad I bought a used PS2 about 6 weeks ago …

feh 1.2.6 - screen lock II

Tuesday, September 21st, 2004

Just fiddled with the screen lock patch.
Now it uses the system password,
but needs to be setuid root if shadow passwords are enabled.

Would be glad if someone could do a little sanity check:

Sick

Monday, September 20th, 2004

Visited the doctor today.
Got the results from the lab … nothing.

So I’m off the antibiotics,
but I still don’t know what is wrong :(

G5 Mac - Gentoo

Friday, September 17th, 2004

Just booted the 2004.2 (minimal ppc64) LiveCD.
modprobe sungem; dhcpcd eth0
gave me ethernet.

About to partition the disk.
(I want/need triple boot.)
parted /dev/sda
mkpart primary 0.031 0.810
mkpart primary 0.810 2000
mkpart primary 2000 52000
mkpart primary 52000 102000
mkpart primary 102000 152627.835

This has to be wrong, but you have to start somewhere ;)

mkswap /dev/sda2
mk2efs -j /dev/sda5
mount /dev/sda5 /mnt/gentoo
cd /mnt/gentoo
wget http://dev.gentoo.org/~tgall/stage2-ppc64-20040802.tar.bz2
tar -xvjpf stage2-ppc64-20040802.tar.bz2

add -j2 to MAKEOPTS (/mnt/gentoo/etc/make.conf)
cp /etc/resolve.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc
mount -t proc none /mnt/gentoo/proc

chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
env-update
source /etc/profile

So far so good.

emerge sync
(That might take a while ;) )

New G5 Mac

Friday, September 17th, 2004

I just got a brandnew G5 Mac.

PowerMac 7,3
Dual PPC970 (with altivec)
2.5 GB RAM
160GB SATA HardDisk
GeForce FX 52000

Just about to install gentoo…

sick

Thursday, September 16th, 2004

Yes, still not better.

Well, it is better.

No more fever.
A little headache and some tummy problems,
but nothing major.

It’s my head (read: thinking about what might be the problem) that is making things bad right now.

Still sick

Wednesday, September 15th, 2004

I’m feeling slightly better,
but still far from good.

Stayed at home again.

Have to work tomorrow, even if I feel real bad….

Argh

Tuesday, September 14th, 2004

I feel bad.
The doc said depressions are normal with this kind of infection,
but this is not a depression. It’s a DEEEEEEPRESSION.

Stayed at home today.
My digestive system is reacting to the antibiotika in a bad way…

Drugs

Monday, September 13th, 2004

Visited two doctors today.

Ended up with:
- doxy 200
- tavanic 500
- no clue about what is wrong

Well, some clues, but nothing specific.

feh

Wednesday, September 1st, 2004

Tom started playing around with feh again.
[LinuxBrit] - Blog - feh work

I hope he will apply the screen lock patch (that I ‘ve sent to him yesterday) before he releases a new version.

I really like adding functionallity to tools I use every day,
but I hate to keep track of my patches ;)
