The new baselayout stable in Gentoo – Things to watch out for.

Gentoo has introduced the formerly ~testing baselayout as stable (Version 1.11.12). This introduces quiet a lot of changes to you system, so you will need to watch out for a few things. Especially the network part has changed – And definitly for the better, if you ask me. But your setup will need updating.

/etc/conf.d/net: This is where the most interesting stuff has happened. Check /etc/conf.d/net.example for, erhhh, examples. But if you have been running DHCP on eth0 all you would want in this file is

config_eth0=( “dhcp” )

Having a static adresse it is just something like the following instead:

config_eth0=( “192.168.1.67/24”)
routes_eth0=( “default via 192.168.2.1” )

The greatest news if for those roaming around with wireless access though.

/etc/conf.d/hostname: Replaces /etc/hostname (Witch you should remove).
/etc/conf.d/domainname: Replaces /etc/dnsdomainname (Witch you should remove).

/etc/rc.conf: Stuff has been moved from here to other places. Check /etc/conf.d/clock if you use other than “UTC” as timezone. /etc/conf.d/consolefont and /etc/conf.d/keymaps has the rest.

University Lakerun

Lakes, Beers and strong oppinions

Yesterday I went to see the annual lakerun arranged by the medical students. The scoop here is that they got Wulff and Dolph from the tv show Wulffmorgenthaler to do the announcing and commenting on the runs. This was apparently the first time Dolph had been out meeting people in a real life situation prova denna webbsida.

The runs (Witch basically is a beer run (Run to the bottle of beer, drink it, spin 10 times around it, run back and tag with the next one in your team) with a bit of an obstacle: A small lake) was won by the arrangers for the I don’t know how many years in succesion .

My pictures and videos are available at the gallery.

All howtos moved to the latest setup

Pretty easy, as I just used the rendered HTML from my XML files.

But needles to say, my favorite editor is still going to be doing most of the work. Editing HTML (even with the helping “quicktags” buttons in WP) is not funny in an textarea tadalafil prices.

The old setup is still available at http://subversion.dk/svn/hilli/trunk/hilli.dk/. Check the source out with subversion if you want to have a look at it.

Site changed – yet again

This time we are going in an bit of a different direction.

1st of all this should still be valid XHTML and CSS!

But we are changing the language to (mostly) english, and let others do the dirty work of keeping the code clean.
Instead we are focuing on keeping the content a bit more updated.

Site ændret – igen

Det er stadig ikke vildt synligt (når man ser bort fra at mit site er syneligt igen), men det hele er lavet om til at køre med XML. Der er bakset en DTD, et XSLT, og det hele bliver transformeret vha mod-xslt.

AxKit viste sig at være en kræsen sag mht. perl moduler med mere, så det holdte ikke længe. Men siden AxKit ikke lavede andet end at transformere XML viser mod-xslt sig, at være et smart valg. Bl.a. pga at Apache er blevet opgraderet til version 2.
