UnixTutorial

  1. Finally got time to explain how I use Dropbox with my Linux/Unix desktops and hosting - hope you learn a thing or two: unixtutorial.org/2012/04/using-…
  2. Really like the DaisyDisk app - very easy to see where all the disk space went. It's beautiful, too #daisydisk #osx
  3. Wow, just fouund 70+ forgotten comments on my solaris.reys.net blog. Good thing most weren't quetions, I'll do my best to reply quicker.
  4. Welcome to 2012! Lots of plans for UnixTutorial this year :) unixtutorial.org/2012/01/welcom…
  5. @standaloneSA Looks great, wonder how many years it will be for the price to become $20k and not $200k.
  6. Asus P6X58D delivered, faulty Asus P6T SE sent back - things definitely look like I'll get a chance to complete my i7 upgrade tonight!
  7. Does anyone know how to play mono over HDMI? Trying to expand it to stereo with ALSA right now, otherwise get no sound at all...
  8. Replaced stock 40mm cooler on my ASUS AT3N7A-I, and lowered voltage for the Chenbro chassis fans - have a practically silent HTPC now! :)
  9. Wohoo, FINALLY got everythnig set up on my ION-based HTPC - Ubuntu 10.04, XBMC SVN and all the sound working through coax SPDIF
  10. Reinstalling my HTPC with Ubuntu 10.04 beta didn't fix PulseAudio issues with SPDIF on AT3N7A-I... Will be compiling latest ALSA tonight...
  11. New article on UnixTutorial.org: mounting NFS shares on Mac OS X - http://bit.ly/c3juUH
  12. Spent last 5 days playing with a MacBookPro I borrowed from a friend. Quite like the OS so far, although it's very different from Linux
  13. Thank God It's Friday! Could be a great day if I finally win an iPad from @DreamHost :)
  14. Looking for ways to stay connected? Visit the Unix Tutorial fan page. 62 fans already, not much interaction yet: http://bit.ly/54x4E7
  15. @standaloneSA so very true. I have to explain to the users thoguh that sysadmins are lazy in very good automative way :)
  16. finished converting 1Tb NTFS to ext4 today, one more HDD to go and my Ubuntu-based Media Center is complete - latest stable XBMC rocks!
  17. Booking my CCNA exam for late March today, it's about time I finally refresh my networking skills and take the first step in certification
  18. Latest XBMC on Ubuntu 9.10 seems surprisingly good compared to Win7 beta + MediaPortal 1.0.2 - I think I've found the new combo for my HTPC!
  19. Looks like the EU approval for Oracle/Sun Microsystems deal is almost here - great news! http://bit.ly/4IEkS5
  20. Are you on Facebook? Just created a page for Unix Tutorial blog, would love if you could join: http://bit.ly/54x4E7
