I missed Pascal today

So you really expect me to document how I got it working ?
It works. Docs are here
They just work on a FC install , with an upgraded kernel (no not even 2.6.20 yet)

root@macmini storage# lsmod | grep kvm
kvm_intel              24084  1 
kvm                    60384  1 kvm_intel
root@macmini storage# uname -a
Linux macmini.x-tend.be 2.6.19-1.2895.fc6 #1 SMP Wed Jan 10 19:28:18 EST 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

I must say I missed Pascal today while going to some [OK][F8][OK] steps.

O'Reilly just published my "Introduction to openQRM",
a short teaser on what openQRM might be able to do for you.

There's more where that came from.

Multi Bridge Xen

So how does one configure multiple network interfaces into multiple bridges on Xen ?
I used to use a self written script for this disabling all Xen scripts and overriding the network script
now I figured out a better way to do this.

I created a small wrapper script that is being called from xenconfig.xsp

more xend-config.sxp  | grep wrap
(network-script network-wrapper-bridge)

Which looks like .

#!/bin/sh
/etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge start vifnum=0 netdev=eth0
/etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge start vifnum=1 netdev=eth1

The result is
root@GW-Y scripts# brctl show

bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
xenbr0              8000.feffffffffff    no                    peth0
                                                                                   vif0.0
                                                                                   vif1.0
xenbr1              8000.feffffffffff    no                    peth1
                                                                                   vif0.1
                                                                                   vif1.1

Ogg on Nokia770

Funny you say so, I've been playing the better part of the evening trying to get some streaming to my 770 running into the same issue.
Most of my music is Ogg. So while you are working on Ogg for the 800, make it happen for the 770 too :)

Microsoft attempts copying Ubuntu Functionality

According to this article the latest product from Redmond has a functionality similar to one that has been existing in Ubuntu for years.

It seems what when you have a testversion up and running you can use that upgrade to a full version while not having to pay for the full license. Ubuntu has this in place with their Live CD's for ages. Still a big difference between both products is that for the product from Redmond you have to pay real money, where as Ubuntu gives you the same or better functionality for free.
