Seriously, does CBS have no better revenue generation method than to install crapware on people’s computers?
See for example Pidgin Portable: http://download.cnet.com/Pidgin-Portable/3000-2150_4-10834880.html?tag=mncol;3

This enables dynamic resizing of the photo displayed, and enables the pseudo-lightbox popup to view the “full” resized image for users that can’t view the true full image.

Where g-resize is the class assigned to the img you want to have dynamically resized.

cd to the folder, run :
$ find . -name '*attach*' | xargs rm
where attach is the keyword present in all filenames to delete.
I’m currently running Ubuntu Natty as my primary OS at work.
My setup is a Precision T3500 workstation that came with two NVIDIA Quadro cards which were a nightmare for Linux support. I heard that ATI cards supported 3 monitors on one card, as long as one of them was DisplayPort. I saw a cheap Radeon HD 5450 on sale for about $40, so I picked it up only to notice that it had an HDMI port instead of DisplayPort. I figured I’d try it anyway and was surprised to find that with the open-source radeon driver, 3 monitors work! One is connected by VGA, one HDMI and one DVI.
I had, however been experiencing random X crashes, and I suspect the problem was with the radeon driver.
Currently testing out some updated xorg drivers found at:

Just noticed something today.
A few years ago I was living in residence at St. Paul University. The internet access there was managed by an access controller which redirected all new connections to wireless.colubris.com. After some investigation, I realized there was a way to work around the bandwidth limitations and session timeouts with the use of a DNS forwarder, a Web server, MAC address spoofing, a SOCKS proxy server software and a pseudo-keepalive tool, the ever-useful Firefox addon Reloadevery. This allowed for much more effective use of the available network connectivity.
Fast forward to the present, and I now find myself on the other side. We now have installed our own HP ProCurve access controller, technology which HP acquired through the purchase of Colubris Inc.
so, wireless.colubris.com, we meet again. Things look different from this side.
PulseAudio, as usual, has been annoying me.
This time, it’s because it’s blocking the S/PDIF passthrough via HDMI from XBMC.
I found a great tutorial on how to disable it at http://www.jeffsplace.net/node/12.
However for some reason I had no sound from the TV. That’s because the default device for ALSA is the analog audio output rather than the HDMI port. To fix this, run aplay -l in terminal to determine the card ID for the HDMI out.
$ aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 0: ALC662 rev1 Analog [ALC662 rev1 Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
Then, create a ~/.asoundrc file with the following:
pcm.!default "plughw:0,3"
Where 0 is your card ID and 3 is the device ID found from the aplay -l.
Now all apps should be able to play audio through ALSA/HDMI.
yer -ao alsa -ac hwdts -vo vdpau qgh_dts.dts
that I found on my computer. I’m not quite sure when it’s from, but I do recognize some voices (or laughs).
Give it a listen, maybe one of them is you.
This is more for my own use, but if it helps anyone, great!
This is the set of kexts I use in the /Extra folder of my Dell D620 with Intel GMA950 video and Broadcom b/g wlan card. Latest addition was the AppleBCM5751Ethernet.kext which finally got me working ethernet.
Now to try the 10.6.8 update…
