Sun Feb 07 19:27:44 2010 GMT: Opera IPv6 Support
According to a message on the opera.linux newsgroup from "Tommy A. Olsen", IPv6 support in Opera for Linux will be fixed in the upcoming 10.50 release. That's certainly good news, so let's hope it will be released soon.
Thu Feb 04 21:25:36 2010 GMT: Hayek vs. Keynes
There is a nice "Fear the Boom and Bust" video on YouTube worth watching. (Note, I usually don't spend any time on YouTube at all, but I saw this one mentioned in the FTD). Enjoy...
Sat Jan 09 19:48:02 2010 GMT: The Big Freeze: Lydiard Park
About 10 cm of snow on Wednesday morning resulted in complete chaos around the UK (just like last February). But it also provided the opportunity to go for a walk through the snow-covered Lydiard Park.
Sat Jan 09 19:20:38 2010 GMT: GStreamer ALSA Bug
From time to time my xfce4-volumed and xfce4-mixer-plugin get into a state where they consume 100% CPU. I have now been able to find the corresponding Ubuntu xfce4-volumed bug and track it further down to a GStreamer bug. Essentially, GStreamer gets confused when a sound device (like a USB headset) is unplugged.
Fri Jan 08 20:52:56 2010 GMT: Acer Ferrari WLAN Update
I have now been able to successfully connect to a public wireless LAN under Linux with my Acer Ferrari, so the WLAN issues mentioned appear to be limited to this specific ad-hoc network configuration.
BTW, Swindon is to become the first town in the UK to offer free wireless internet to all residents. And quite interestingly, BT has now revealed that it is planning to upgrade two exchanges in Swindon (Blunsdon and Toothill) for fibre-to-the-cabinet.
