that they are expanded and then I can't attach a small toolbar beside

      <![CDATA[ Ubuntu 9.04 ]]> Ubuntu Jaunty

      Hello World! I just upgrade my Ubuntu System, now it runs the 9.04 with the 2.6.28 kernel (Read the goodness of this kernel). The upgrade process was quite simple, It took more or less 5 hours downloading the new packages (1060MB) and 30 minutes intalling.

       

      After installing the system restart and the boot process was pretty smooth. But one problem gets to the surface.. my terminal emulator doesn't open! after a small google search I found that  I had to add a line to my fstab, in the bug report they recommend to restart, you just have to mount /dev/pts after adding that line to your /etc/fstab.

       

      Then, everything was quite fine. Until I get home where I found that the Franklin CDU-680 was not working, and trying to add the usbserial module result in a "there is no module usbserial" message. Looking through the kernel configuration (/boot/config-2.6.28-11-generic), using the BAM requires to pass the vendor and product params to the moudule, if the module is built into the kernel I can't, actually I can, passing those arguments in the boot loader. But I don't want that way. At the end I compile my custom kernel based on the same configuration of the Ubuntu's kernel just change the usbserial as module.

       

      Another thing that is annoying is that I had to reconfigure Compiz. All my keyboard shortcuts were deleted.

       

      Everything else is just fine.

      09:00.0 Ethernet controller: Attansic Technology Corp. L1 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (rev b0)
      The last sunday, when I arrive to Salamanca, Gto. I installed Ubuntu Hardy just to test it and because I didn't have a copy of the install CD, and the BAM was not the right way to make a dist upgrade. I found that Hardy is not 100% compatible with this machine, first. it doesn't have the Ethernet module, that as you can see in the lspci output is an Attansic Gigabit ethernet which works with the atl1e module. Then, the Wireless card is an Atheros AR928X that works with the ath9k module.
      Sound is great! and you can turn on and off the subwoffer, sound is clear, no distortion and the volume up and down are touch buttons, the same the prev, next, play/pause and stop button. Another buttons that are touch too are the ethernet, bluetooth and a couple of buttons that are used with the Acer software. The webcam works just fine using the uvcvideo module and the graphics card works fine but as any other privative software it has his limitations.
      I haven't yet explored it completely, I don't know if the multi card reader really works but as far I have used it, it fills my needs.
      The best is that Ubuntu, that boots in more or less 37 seconds on cucusa, here it does in just 24 seconds using startpar booting process. ]]>

    • As I have already said, I have been working a lot in the office, and get back to the house tired, I didn't want to use the computer in the house, so christine development was stoped in this time, but will start again, in the hope to have more time. The work I already have of christine in the svn drops the gnome-python* dependencies by dropping gconf out of christine. It has the first implementation of the model I had worked on a few weeks ago wich will improve christine startup. I'm planning to rewrite the player module to make it the cleaner way.
    • I have been usign twitter for a while, is nice to see what your buddys are doing accros the day, but I'm not that kind of twitter user that post everything: 'Im posting that Im posting on twitter', my twitter name is markuzmx.
    • Cristina And I are happy here in salamanca, most of the free time we use to get out of the house, watching movies, going to the museums or just walking and talking. Yesterday cristina tatooed her arm, a small butterfly next to his hand.
    • I knew the new. Monster Java flavour
    • Went to see Narnia, and Indiana Jones.
    • Upgraded to Ubuntu 8.04 an found some glitches with Compiz wich I don't like, and One of them is the fact I can't use Button3 to show the main menu, The compiz Config Manager doesn't have that option, just the keyboard one, wich is.... annoying.

Wasn't so easy. It takes more than 1 hour downloading the files, I know, this isn't Ubuntu's servers fault, but, I was supposed to download 1585 files, fortunately I had copied the files from another machine here in ICT Consulting that was upgraded yesterday, from where I grab ~1200 files. So, 300 files in 1 hour, 1200 should be 4 hours (aprox).
    The upgrade, indeed is easy, just run the upgrade manager and you have your system upgraded. But, that doesn't mean that you don't have to do anything else, my nvidia driver wasn't working, and I thought it was because I use envy to install the nvidia driver in Gutsy. So, I remove envy and then install the nvidia-glx-new package, didn't work. So, looking for in the system I realize that the restricted drivers manager wasn't working properly, diving there I found that it miss one package, the restricted driver manager for my kernel. I have to install it and then my nVidia work again.
    Is nice when you can upgrade your favorite distribution, even when you have to repair your installation after the upgrade. ]]>

    You can configure the key shortcuts to show the main menu, or to show the run dialog, you can even configure the shortcut to show your home, but, what about this?.
    If you know how to do it (on GNOME), please, let me know.

    <![CDATA[ Primera semana con Ubuntu Gusty Gibbon ]]> Slackware un rato para usar Ubuntu, debido a que vaya, ahora entiendo a quienes antes me habian dicho por montones: Yo quiero trabajar, no lidiar con dependencias.
    Dado que siempre tengo que hacer en ICTC, cuando llego a casa pocas veces me intereza estar peleando con la compu, tal como lo hacia en casa, donde siempre tenia chance de hacerlo. Entonces me he instalado Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon para evitarme estas tranzas y usar el poder de apt.
    Obviamente, me tuve que desprender de toda esa libertad que me da Slackware al no amarrarme del arbol de dependencias, pero es todo en favor de poder chambear o lograr lo queq uiero con el menor esfuerzo posible. Y pense que si lo conseguia todo seria bonito.
    Bien, pues estaba bien perdido. He tenido unos ligeros problemas con Ubuntu. Antier tuve pedos con el controlador que te ofrecen para poder usar las tarjetas Broadcom. el bcm43xx funciona bien, pero no tan bien como deberia. Segun esta cosa si se conectaba con el router al que deberia de conectarse, pero aunque deshabilitaba cualquier otra interfaz de red y agregaba las rutas, el ping al mismo router jamas funcionaba!. Ha. y NetworkManager no me fue de mucha ayuda. Use wlassistant y ndiswrapper para lograr mi objetivo.
    Ok, no fue todo. Resulta que a como tenia mi configuracion funciono bien en su momento, pero al dia siguiente al iniciar, Bolas don cuco Gnome no inicia... o mejor dicho, si lo hace, pero tarda Muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucho y las aplicaciones tambien tardan Muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucho a pesar de que el uso del CPU estaba al 0% o cuando mucho al 5% y el load average tambien estaba normal.
    En fin, me hice una cuenta de usuario alterna para probar y nada, no pelaba. Gnome en modo seguro, tampoco, me asegure. Entonces entro en consola a prueba de fallos (simon, si falla la consola quito Ubuntu a la chingada y meto Slackware otra vez.. es mejor pelear un solo dia que pelar todos los dias!)..
    En fin, aproveche e instale xfce y justo cuando va arrancando me dice que no encuentra la ip de cucusa (cucusa es el nombre de mi maquina), voy a echarle un ojo al /etc/hosts y veo que me faltaba el nombre corto para la maquina. se lo pongo y arranga perfecto. salgo de Xfce y entro en Gnome y Jala perfecto.
    Aqui viene el descontento, recuerdo que en Gnome 1.x te avisaba que no podia resolver el nombre del equipo que esto posiblemente te acarrearia problemas. Entonces hacias las correcciones necesarias (tal como me paso con xfce). Por que jodidos lo quitaron?. Si GNOME es GNU Network Object Model Environment, porque jodidos no te avisa cuando hay un error en algun aspecto de red??
    Ok, va una, la segunda sucede cuando llego a Salamanca, Me la volvio a hacer. Llego, conecto la compu a la corriente, arranco, y sopas, GNOME no arranca, Xfce si lo hace y no advierte de nada, muy probablemente porque ahora si resuelve la ip de mi maquina. Problema, la configuracion de red, deshabilite las interfaces de red que tengo, arrango GNOME, abro el NetworkManager y le digo que ahora mi configuracion ha de ser por dhcp en ambas interfaces (eth0 (alambrica) y eth1 (inalambrica)), y entonces si funciona bien.
    Hasta ahorita no he tenido mayor problema que este, pero si es algo frustrante que despues de cambiar mi configuracion de red tenga tantos pedos para poder usar Ubuntu. ]]>

    <![CDATA[ Somos cuates pero... ]]> Ubuntu en cucusa en la reunion del Grupo Linuxero del Bajio y hablando sobre ubuntu salio a la luz lo del shipit, el hecho de que en los primeros envios te motivaban a pedir varios CDs para que al menos valiera la pena el costo del envio.
    Tambien estabamos hablando sobre la educacion en mexico, el hecho de que empresas como Microsoft esten dando "Gratis" las licencias de Microsoft Windows y Microsoft Office y de otro software de Microsoft a las escuelas, de forma que los usuarios se acostumbren a usar sus productos y cuando salgan tengan que pagar por las licencias de los productos que usaban en la escuela. Lo mismo que aquel que le regala droga en un principio a la victima para decirle que despues siempre ya no, que hay que pagar "Somos cuates, pero no me chingues...'
    Y entre todo esto, regresamos a la platica de Ship it de Ubuntu, donde salio que Mark Shuttleworth, despues de ver que en todo mundo se pedian cantidades industriales de CDs completamente Gratis de Ubuntu, seguro ha de haber dicho:

    Somos cuates, pero no me chingues

    <![CDATA[ Sin que decir. ]]>
  • Sigo trabajando en C. Me gusta mucho, ya le agarr??????© cari??????±o, a pesar de que he estado utilizando Python que es super sencillo, este lenguaje me ofrece buenos retos y viendolo bien no esta tan dificil, cosa de hacer las cosas como deben de ser. Yo creo que despues de esto implementar??????© mas cosas de Christine en C.
  • Con esto del cambio de servidor, muchos de los dominios que tenia registrados siguen fuera de linea, uno de ellos christine-project.org :-(.
  • Estaba cabilando, hace unos a??????±os obtener una copia e Solaris legal era algo dificil, ahora me llegan por correo. solaris 10, OpenSolaris (esta me la regalo alo), y hoy me llego el Solaris Express Developer Edition.
  • Mi hermano instalo Kubuntu en su maquina, que es algo que me alegra mucho, aunque me molesta que Ubuntu no incluya por defecto las utilerias para compilar. En mi casa tenemos una red inalambrica, algo que ya discuti en un post anterior, Yo tengo ndiswrapper y bueno, con eso tengo mi red funcionando, pero mi hermano la unica forma de conectarse de manera inalambrica es gracias a windows, el driver de su adaptador de red USB debe ser compilado como modulo, es un driver oficial por parte de los de Encore, problema con unbuntu, no puedo compilar porque no tengo ni gcc. ]]> http://islascruz.org/html/index.php/blog/show/Sin-que-decir.html markuz@islascruz.org (Marco Antonio Islas Cruz) http://islascruz.org/html/index.php/blog/show/Sin-que-decir.html Thu, 03 May 2007 22:39:46 -0500 <![CDATA[ Less memory more speed? ]]> I guess that happen, but with ubuntu that is not the real life. The reason: Ubuntu uses a lot of memory. I check my memory state after bootting and it was using at least 180Mb!!!. and that was at booting (gnome and session already started), and in this time using ubuntu I feel like when I had voladora, I mean, I had 60% memory used by active programs and 38% by cach??????©, and having Evolution, Firefox, gaim, xchat and some terminals opened I had that and 50% of my swap used. So, more or less 250 Mb where used by active programs (and 50% swap)!! That, for me, is too much!.
    With Slackware I have Gnome with all my session openen for less than 100 Mb, and with evolution, gaim, and everything else with 250 Mb, but, with no swap used. Well, that is nice for me, because the system doesn't have to deal a lot with read/write in swap, and then it is faster.
    I feel Slackware faster than ubuntu linux, until ubuntu linux team fixes the memory leak in their system.

    <![CDATA[ Ubuntu in Cucusa ]]> ubuntu version 6.06. I have to say that this time everything works fine, and I had just touched the config files for tunning, but no more. Even the nvidia Driver runs fine. I was getting angry but, that was because I wasn't searched so well in Google: I was trying to use "1280x768" pixel resolution, while the maximum (and working) resolution is "1280x800". that's why I was looking everythin in "1024x768".
    Well. this is it, ubuntu is finally in my computer. :-)

    <markuz> wenas wenas again

    MaoP, ya quedo la cosa del puto driver de nvidia, era yo, el pendejo que queria meterle resolucion de 1280x768 (como en cunegunda) pero esta madre funciona con 1280x80012:38
