GPG Key Transition

Sun, 18 Jul 2010 09:46:00 -0500

I'll be attending both DefCon and DebConf this year, so I'm figuring this is as good a time as any to get my GPG key updated to something stronger than 1024 bit DSA. I've put a transition statement online as seems to be recommended.

New HLUG Website

Sat, 31 Jan 2009 15:23:00 -0600

After a long delay, the new HLUG website is finally up and running. Rather than setting up a CMS on houstonlinux.org I've set up a planet RSS feed aggregator to simply pull down news from the blogs of HLUG members. This means that if you want to add a piece of news to our site you'll need to either (a) get it posted on one of the feeds that houstonlinux.org tracks or (b) start a blog and send me a link to the RSS feed.

Grep Switches

Fri, 09 May 2008 10:50:00 -0500

The LugNut isn't going to make it to the HLUG meeting on Saturday May 10th, so Pete asked me to put something together for the presentation. I'm going to do a talk about the most common commands in my bash history file, meaning we'll probably talk quite a bit about grep, svn, my favorite text editor, and file/directory manipulation.

Catch it live at 2:00pm at HAL-PC in Houston, or watch the live video feed on this server.

Retooling

Wed, 07 May 2008 01:50:00 -0500

I spent last weekend completely reorganizing my AMD64 desktop system. It had 1GB of RAM, 500GB of drive space over four SATA-150 drives (RAID 1,0...I'm not that crazy) and a Debian Sid AMD64 install that predated Debian support for AMD64 by quite some time. It was a big mess and had been driving me to use a laptop for everything.

After a full weekend of work, the machine has a fresh Lenny install, 4GB of RAM, a single 1TB SATA-300 drive and a vastly reorganized home directory. I managed to get rid of 200GB of garbage in the process.

Now I just need to find time to fix all the castle-combat bugs that have accumulated lately.
