Everything is broken.

You can use seq to generate sequences. Cool.

July 27th, 2008

I should have known about this for a while, but I recently learned that I could use seq to generate a sequence of numbers. It has options for doing things like only outputting even numbers in the generated sequences, and more. Great for used in bash loops.

Posting with the wordpress iphone app

July 22nd, 2008

This is a test post with the iPhone app. Already I can see that one would need to be pretty bored to use this everyday. Typing with the iPhone keyboard, while not too hard; became a chore before this post was done.

That switch to kickstart that you always forget is likely ksdevice=link

April 29th, 2008

It means use the ethernet device that has a link, and if it missing you will likely be prompted. It doesn’t matter much to me anyway now that I know how to properly manage a PXE environment; but it took a while to get it stuck in my head.

Watch gsm phone??

March 30th, 2008

Apparently these fellas are selling a Dick Tracy style GSM watch. I would like to know a few things happen before I would buy one.

1. I would like to see it in use, not that I would be using the build in speakerphone mode much, I would probably use a headset; its just that I don’t buy gadgets that I have never seen work.

2. Is it waterproof?

3. $700 are you kidding me? I’ll give you $250.

4. isync???, does it work as a gprs modem?

5. How well does it work while in silent mode, does it even vibrate? If so would I notice it while watching a movie?

2. load the needed modules
modprobe ipmi_si
modprobe ipmi_devintf
3. configure the network, and auth as seen here
4. test xxxx

I made a liboggz installer for OS 10.5
