Trent and Tiffany's Wedding
We were a little late to the ceremony but what i saw of it was nice.
Here are the videos I took (sorry the sound sucks) the first three were uploaded to youtube before the reception moved past that awkward first stage wifi at reception, video taken on my palm centro and moved to my nokia n800 via bluetooth and uploaded from there. The last one I uploaded as soon as I got home.

Wimax? More like pain in my ass
Last night I bought a "residential wimax modem" a local ISP is doing their broadband over wimax (so they dont have to run copper) and are offering it for 35USD a month. That's all well and good but I can't get the bloody thing working in Linux, or for that matter Vista (tried on the girlfriends laptop and still couldn't get it to work, but I wasn't trying that hard)
So here are some pics to better explain whats going on.
Here is the modem the only interface out of this box is the ethernet cord, which should just make this this thing a basic wired connection.

This is how you see how good your connection is

A little branding never hurt anyone

If you have really dgood eyesight you might be able to make out a model number

A little behind shot for the techopervs

Sexy box right? Well like i said earlier I can't get the bloody thing to work. Here is a brain dump of the problems and what I've tried:
* I get an IP its in the 10 range so it may not be routable (whatever not worried about that)
* /etc/resolv.conf shows namesservers as 205.171.3.65 and 205.171.2.65
* i cant ping the 205. nameservers
* changing to OpenDNS doesnt help
* every renew resets /etc/resolv.conf
* I've been running sudo dhclient eth0 to get a new ip thats when /etc/resolv.conf resets
What am I missing? Why is this such a pain!!!! I have a support ticket in, but they support Windows 98SE or higher and Mac OSX

Tried to Flash my n800 to Diablo, Tried Is the Operative Word
Woots! I fail hard! I tried to flash my n800 and failed miserably. I started out following this http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showpost.php?p=94459&postcount=2
and it fails at the second command on number 14 with a "sutable usb device not found" error http://linuxcranks.pastebin.com/m1c5b5cc8
Then thelastknowngod showed me this http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware and it fails with this error "Write failed after 0 bytes
usb_bulk_write: Resource temporarily unavailable"
AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
So now I am sitting here with a fairly useless n800. It still boots but it wont load an OS, so I still have hope, but man am I pissed.
**EDIT: I got this to work, but I had to use my girlfriends vista (puke) box, but the flasher for windows is niiice.

Linux Community Screwed by the Biggest Tool EVER
Brian-with-a-y posted this to his blog
(http://lunduke.com/?p=206)
"When I first envisioned RadicalCodex… it was only for Linux.
Having the best eBook and eComic reader only for Linux… well I just like the sound of that.
Once the Beta testing started I began receiving emails, from Linux users, asking if a Windows version was in the works. This surprised me at first, but it made some sense. Most people can’t run 100% Linux on every computer they use. And, of course, it’s nice to be able to bring your favorite applications with you between computers.
Plus having great software available for both Windows and Linux helps to lower the barrier for many people switching platforms."
and this is what I posted to him in response:
"Once the Beta testing started I began receiving emails, from Linux users, asking if a Windows version was in the works. "
LOL you have to be kidding me, what about the Linux users that asked you to put it under a Free Software license?
You are a bigger tool than I thought you were. What happened to showing the non-free companies that the "the Linux water was fine, jump on in"? What happened to your crusade? Are you going to admit that you went into this on a lie? Are you at least gonna give us the source code? Come on Benedict Arnold.
I don't think I need to say more about that, but this may (99.9999% sure) that this will be on ep 2009.7 of Linuxcranks. Listen Live Sat/Sunday at Midnight Eastern (http://live.linuxcranks.info [you will need a talkshoe.com account to listen as we are an 18+ podcast])

Printing in Crunchbang
I just got me a new HP DeskJet 6940 for my birthday. Its networked so I just stuck it on my network and started configuring boxen. My girlfriend's Vista laptop was bloody simple to set up (weird yeah I know). Then I got started on my computers (my desktop and my eee) which was where the problem started. Now mind you I had been drinking (me and the captain made it happen [mom bought the booze]). On said desktop and eee I am running CrunchBang Linux and cruncheee respectively (this will be important later).
On CrunchBang
If you right click and go to "Printer Configuration" it opens and a whole bunch of it is greyed out (wtf) but there is a fix:
step 1: sudo su
this will make you proper root, this is just to save time sudo-ing over and over again is a pain in the ass
step 2: cd into /etc/cups/ssl/
step 2.5: if you ls you will see server.crt and server.key, believe it or not just rm both of them
step 3: then run sudo /etc/init.d/cups start (i think you might not need this dont remember)
step 4: open "Printer Configuration" again and
step 5: POW that MF is working so set your stuff up
on CrunchEEE
This is not a problem some how it works in crunchbang for the eee [facepalm] wtf
thanks to the lovely gents in irc.freenode.net #linuxcranks for the help specificity Mole_

My Free Software Resolution
*The Resolution*
/I, threethirty, do resolve to use free software more in 2009 than in
any year before and if possible, to implement new systems, features, and
capabilities with 100% free software./
That means if you're looking for a new web browser, you'll consider Firefox.
If you need to open one of those weird .docx Word Documents, you're going to
use Open Office. And finally, you're going to try GNU/Linux. There are so
many ways to try it that one of these has got to be for you.
*Start 2009 out right*
1. Order a free Ubuntu Live CD from http://shipit.ubuntu.com [1] and boot up
your computer with it. Voila! You're trying GNU/Linux.
2. Ask your nearest techie to download and burn Ubuntu or Fedora to a CD for
you. Pop it in your CD drive and reboot. Some would call that trying
GNU/Linux.
3. Ask your nearest techie to install GNU/Linux for you and see the world of
computers with fresh eyes as you try GNU/Linux.
4. Download the source code to Azureus, configure and build the package, then
use it to download Arch, CrunchBang, or SlackWare and run that baby in a
virtual machine using VirtualBox OSE.
5. Finally, if you need help with any of the above submit a support request
at http://trygnulinux.com/getsupport.php [2] and we'll do our best to help
you with the next step.
With this New Year's resolution, 2009 can be a spectacular year for free
software so try to stick with it. Next New Year, we're hoping to find a
fitter, healthier, more-free-software-using you. Happy New Year from everyone
at TryGNULinux.com.

12 Steps to a GNU life
12 Steps to a GNU Life v0.1
1. We admitted we were powerless over Propreitary Software - that our lives had become unmanageable.
2. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of the GNU as we understood Him.
4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
5. Admitted to the GNU, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
6. Were entirely ready to have the GNU remove all these defects of character.
7. Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.
8. Made a list of all users we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all.
9. Made direct amends to such users wherever possible, except when to do so would enslave them or others.
10. Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.
11. Sought through code and meditation to improve our conscious contact with the GNU as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.
12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to users and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

W00ts im a Computer Nerd because the internet said so
Overall, you scored as follows:
0% scored higher (more computer geeky),
0% scored the same, and
100% scored lower (less geeky).
Compared to those in the same age group as you:
0% scored higher (more computer geeky),
0% scored the same, and
100% scored lower (less geeky).
What does this mean? Your computer geekiness is:
Step aside Bill Gates, Linus Torvalds, and Steve Jobs... You are by far the SUPREME COMPUTER GOD!!!

Ohio Linux Fest 2008 : The Good, The Bad, The Assy: Show Me Some Candy
The last time i saw this 
it was this time last year.The next time I see it it will be a year from now but I must say that I can't think of a better reason to be up after 1.5 hours of
sleep and before the ass crack of dawn. The above pic was taken at
about half way through our trip... and thats about the time I went
to bed that night ;)
I started doing some video and taking pictures, but then i realized
that there were better cameras and all that shit so i decided to
aggregate everyone else's pics so ill stick theirs in as i find them
but i did shoot this stuff.
Here are my tweets during the weekend with some comments and other media:

I'm at OLF
I have made it to OLF and as of right now I'm bored as I can be, but I'm also here the day before. I didnt sleep for shit last night and then downed big ass can of monster. So now I'm sick to my stomach (I need to puke). Monsterb and Klaatu are gonna meet me here in the food court, so mybe the day will pick up a bit.
I have some video and pics taken already so this should be a media rich event.

My rEEEview of the Asus Eeepc 900
Ok im a a week or so into my ownership of the Asus Eeepc and I think that I can now give a fair review. Because I'm a giant nerd the first thing I had to do is get rid of Xandros. Xandros is a huge pie o shit. This has nothing to do with the patient agreement with Micrsoft they have, this is solely about software... its shit. Nothing was intuitive, it seemed like there was a hodgepodge of software and none of it was integrated. So I tried to install eeebuntu. Tried is the operative word, the version of ubnetbootin was borked, and after a day of hacking on it, i had gotten nowhere and I was at work and had no net access so I was stuck trying to get
that download working. Once i got home i decided to try ubuntu-eee and OMFG is it great the older and better version of ubnetbootin was preconfigured for the ubuntu-eee hardy image and installed first try, NO ISSUES!!!!! Everything but the SD card slot works. Wifi,
webcam, sleep, power saving, all of it, so eff an SD card slot. You can see screenshots at http://www.unixporn.com/screenshots/thumbnails.php?album=5
And now on to hardware I got the 8.9 inch eeepc 900 with a 900 MHz Intel Celeron processor, 16 gb sshd, and 1gb of ram. this thing is awesome!! the keyboard is a bit of a pain in the ass. but i am getting used to it. these keys are tiny, but that isn't the real problem. the real issue is all of the non letter keys (tab, enter, backspace) are smaller than the letter keys. that drives me nuts! but again i am getting used to it. i really don't know what else to say this thing is tiny and pretty powerful. I could have gotten this with a 1.n GHz Inttel atom processor but I don't feel like i am missing anything 900mgz is more than enough
For all of the uber nerds here is my lshw:

A funny new website
Some clever indivdual has made a satire website poking fun at Brian-with-a-y's Proprietary Comic Book reader. This person must agree with me that the last thing that Linux needs is more non-free software. I have no issue with making a comercial app but I think that it is immoral to create proprietary software. And I have let Bryan know that if he offered it ender a GPL compatable license that I would buy it eventhough I have no use for it. So with out further adeu http://platypuslinux.org/
