Last class today… It was pretty good, too, we watched Bowling for Columbine :d Great movie.

Joined [url=http://uptimes.hostingwired.net]uptimes.hostingwired.net[/url] today, [url=http://uptimes.hostingwired.com/stats.php?op=all&user=SiD3WiNDR]here is my page[/url].

Now toying with an LDAP setup at home (damn problems), Snort/ACID, and developing a bit… I need 36 hours a day 🙂

Had a nice quiet day at school… after that I went to the Autosalon in Brussels.. watched some cars.. some nice, some ugly. Renault should get their act together cause the design really sucks 😉

Still fixing what the downgrade broke.. somehow my nagios install is borked heavily. Smokeping still shows the usuall quirkyness (not creating images anymore).

Last class tomorrow of my (current?) school career 🙂 😀

Hmm… downgrading takes effort.. most of it is done now.. apache back up, mysql back up, dns back up, etc. Not all is fixed but it’s getting late now :s Stable – Testing 1-0 🙂

I forgot to add earlier that I created my very own OmniCode block (geekcode successor), here it is 😉

Good night! :z

Now that our project is over the days are actually pretty relaxed :z

My PXE setup is finally getting along, using a bootdisk by [url=http://www.emboot.com]emboot[/url] for vmware (although I can’t seem to boot floppy images with it, dunno if it’s emboot’s fault). [url=http://www.rom-o-matic.net]Rom-o-matic[/url] should really start supporting PXE though. 🙁

Downgraded sunrise from Debian sarge to woody. (Still working on it, actually) Thanks to [url=http://people.debian.org/~osamu/downgrade.html]this nice description[/url] of how to do it 🙂

I really need diskspace on sunrise so I added my wishlist to the site and a 4GB IDE disk at the top 😉

While doing some other stuff I started Poogle, a searchengine/webspider written in TCL… Just for fun and experimentation. Currently still working on the html parsing 😉

Got up really early… had to be at school at 7.30 for infoco, which was moderately interesting.

Didn’t really do anything else except work on PowerBlog (the software running this website), watch Jay & Silent Bob strike back (which was not bad :)) and that’s about it 🙂

Belgium to the top! 😉

Haven’t done much today either… Found the cause of the apache problem… didn’t find the cause of my computer crashing. Ran 2 passes of memtest, all fine. Boot windows, all fine. Yet it still crashes when I boot linux, but also sometimes when I press the reset button, it doesn’t come back :s I’m afraid something is really broken and I have no clue what.. this sucks.

Went to check out some colors of our future BMW.. even [b]studied[/b] a bit while in the car 😉

I’m leaving for Leuven soon … and gotta get up real early in the morning (7.30 @ school) to go to Infoco.. Colruyt’s computer department.

Got up at 11… noticed my computer keeps crashing. Cool deal. NOT. Tried to fiddle with BIOS settings. No go. More fiddling. Seems to be a little bit stable. I think. The thing ran for years with the previous ones though… I think the kingston RAM modules can’t keep up with 133MHz anymore :s (they’re PC100 but have been running at 133 just fine for a long time.. 149 ran stable as well while overclocking :)) I’ll do more testing tomorrow.

Replaced my Dart PC-TV-Live with a Hauppauge WinTV Go, to see if I could get TV under Linux with it… The PC-TV-Live was detected but shows no channels, and Hauppauge’s thingies [b]should[/b] be well-supported. But no. Hauppauge seems to have decided to ship new cards with a different chipset which is not supported under Linux (yet). Capturing works, but no VBI, which seems to mean xawtv won’t work :s Might fiddle with it more.. who knows.

After that, lunch, which comes always surprisingly short after waking up 🙂

Neighbours came over for their yearly a-little-after-newyear visit. Been there a while, then it was time to eat again…. After that I finally went to fix the printers that ALL decided to stop printing at the beginning of this week (they’re all HP, is this a scam?). I put one of them directly on the pc (there’s a jetdirect printserver in between), software diagnostics said B/W cartridge is at 0%… Oh, nice, but does that mean it won’t print anything? I’m not sure cause I don’t have a replacement at this moment. Also, why wasn’t the “(almost) empty” light blinking then? In the other I found after trying out things that replacing the color cartridge with another one seems to have fixed it. WTF? 😐

In the end, I haven’t done anything today yet (PC kept crashing which wasn’t very productive), and the day is just about over. How nice!

[b]Update 21:08[/b]: My screen session on tequila just crashed after several 100 days of uptime. Oh great.
[b]Update 00:31[/b]: Got back to my computer to find out half of my websites wasn’t working anymore. Somehow apache filled up /tmp and now refused to work. OH GREAT. 🙁

Last night we worked on our Java project until 5am… Today almost a whole day too.. But tadaa.. it’s just about finished now. 🙂 [b]Finally[/b] some rest :d and lots of sleep :z

I don’t want to use my brain anymore this week. Java wrecked it :z

Exam went fine.. Windows is one unpredictable **** 🙂

After that, started work on our Java and JSP projects… I was still at school at 20:30 ! 🙁 Very tiring day… gotta be off to bed.. still watching Event Horizon though.. spooky movie. :z
