I’m sure there are quite a few GNU/Linux users who own this great gadget (read: slave). I was wondering what do you guys use to control the robot?
I have mine equipped with a RooTooth, and it works great when I control it using my wife’s cellphone. I haven’t, on the other hand, found a good [...]
I’m always finding good uses for my ‘old’ laptop! I just wish I had more old computers laying around so I could come up with ideas on how to use them.
I’ve always wanted to have a good disaster recovery solution implemented at home, who would also take care of my Internet hosts. After several attempts [...]
I found this game by accident and I’m completely addicted to it. I was a big fan of Lemmings, but I never bothered to Google for a clone on the F/LOSS world.
I recommended this game to every Lemmings fan. The game is available on official repositories, even though it’s not the latest version. GetDeb.net has [...]
I’m not a fan of comics, but this one is really interesting, because I care allot about the web-of-trust.

A picture is really worth a thousand words!
After reading the great post by Aaron Toponce on how he pimped his IRSSI I decided to do the same.
Before talking about my scripts for IRSSI, I’ll talk about TSS (Terminal ScreenSaver). Like the name describes, it runs a screensaver on your terminal, with great ASCII graphics. I took a printscreen to submit it to [...]
Well, since my Linksys NSLU2 (the one with Debian) is running very smoothly, I decided to test something new. IPv6!
All the documentation I founded was old or outdated, so I created a new Wiki page on Ubuntu’s Wiki on how to setup a IPv6-In-IPv4 tunnel.
I’ve been using it mostly for IRC, but I’m sure [...]
Using the Modem Huawei E220 on Dapper Drake (and from what I’ve heard 7.04) can be quite tricky. After a few searches I found a great software that will allow the USB device to be recognized as a modem, and not a SCSI CD-ROM.
oozie made a great work and has instructions on his website.
huawei.tar.bz2 is [...]
Since I’ve been using Blackbox for a while now I decided I needed a simple way of checking the battery level (using it on my my Thinkpad).
After a simple Google search I found a weblog with the perfect solution. Placed in /usr/bin/ a simple batmon (renamed) tells me my battery level.
(Don’t forget to make it [...]
I’ve heard allot of great things about Synergy but today was the first time I had the need to use it.
My mother has a Windows laptop (soon to be changed to Ubuntu 7.04) which I use when I attend LAN Parties. It has a few FPS games I wanted to play during these relaxed vacations.
Since [...]
The recent version of TrueCrypt doesn’t allow non-US ASCII characters. This means that é ã ê à, etc, are not supported on the passphrase.
Just a little tip for the developers.
This restriction was not present on older versions of TC, so maybe, changing stuff from night to day and leaving users with no way of [...]
