Mailman doesn’t have a command to re-inject all pending mails for the command line. Because in Debian Lenny the web-part is broken (wants to be recompiled because of wrong Apache group) I needed to re-inject a lot of mails which were pending. Mehr…
Bash has a cool feature, it allows you to redirect the output of an application to a virtual file. With this its for example possible to fast-diff two directories. Mehr…
While compiling OpenWrt for an ARM compatible processor I got the following error:
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:39: Error: selected processor does not support `bx r6'
I found the solution in the The definitive guide to GCC book from William Von Hagen (I don’t own it, I found it via Google Books). You have to disable the the USE_BX flag in the uClibc config file and everything will be fine. Mehr…
Fdupes is a very useful tool – it searches your harddisk for duplicated files and helps you to keep it structured. Currently, it only supports deleting duplicated files, which is not suitable for my music collection, because I want to store the same music in different places (eg. to make a collection for different reasons like music for a wedding and so on). One possibility would be to add tags to the music. But this would take very long to search through all and you can’t just copy the preselected files with just a filemanager. The solution is: fdupes should hardlink instead of deleting. Mehr…
Most of you know it already… if you set your (Brother) printer under CUPS to DIN A4 it will only print with the Letter-margins. But now there is a solution available. Thanks to the German Ubuntu-Wiki. Mehr…
Because I always wanted to learn some GTK, I decided to try it first with a trayicon. And wow, it was that easy – ok, the functional factor is zero, but you’ll have a trayicon with a tooltip. And if you want more you can read the GTK documentation and extend it to the max. Mehr…
Hi, today I read Og Maciels blog entry on Planet GNOME about how he find out to not checkin a whole changed file with git but include/exclude special parts. This is something I needed in the last time much often, but never thought it exists – so with git its very easy. Mehr…
Problem: In diesem Falle war es eine Datei die ein Define enthielt was es erlaubte gewisse Teile einer Firmware anders zu kompilieren und so diverse Tests durchzuführen. Dummerweise ist mir genau dieses eine Define beim letzten Checkin nicht aufgefallen und wurde ausversehen eingecheckt – was zwar danach dann auffiel, aber unschön ist. Mehr…
After my yesterdays blog entry Edit Windows Registry from Linux I could see the error windows showed me in a bluescreen: 0x0000007B INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE.
This was after I changed the motherboard and the CPU. My first thought was ‘Oh no, I’ll have to reinstall it’ – but it went all good. Mehr…
Its a pity when Windows just does one thing: reboot. You have the chance to see the bluescreen for just some milliseconds but not more – but how disabling the autoreboot when Windows doesn’t let you edit the settings? There is help with Linux and the tool chntpw… Mehr…
