General information that might be interesting to sysadmins on topics such as Ubuntu hacking, systems automation, security, monitoring and performance. Also, anything that catches my attention - Android/G1, Tivo, etc.

New Site, New Stuff

I'm moving. Yes, for real. All my new posts (and most of my old ones) are now at Android Blogs.

And I'm inviting you to join me. If you want to have an Android-related blog, let me know. (Soon I'll throw open the door, but for now its a limited beta. If you want to start a new blog, drop me a note. Or, if you already have a blog about Android and you want to be syndicated, I can do that too. All it takes is an RSS/ATOM feed with the full content.)

Quickie: Revert code to pre-cupcake-merge

If you want to build anything for an existing image, you need to get back to the pre-cupcake merge. And irc user haakjes figured out how :)

Adblock Plus Ported to Webkit

IRC member foobar' has come up with a port of AdBlockPlus for the G1. (Update: Now with source!)

Quickie: New-New JF Images

Full story over there. Minor bugfixes.

New Engineering Bootloader

This one has an added feature - no CID checks on NBH. (Read on to find out why that's neat.)

Now With Forums!

Since we're starting to get some fairly off-topic posts as comments on various stories, I opened up a forum. You need to be registered to start a thread, but anyone can comment. (See link at the top of the page.)

Enjoy!

RC30 Downgrade! Merry Christmas everyone!

Merry Christmas rc30 owners! There is now a downgrade to rc29! (Updated: Better directions, and pics. And md5sum.) UK types, you're in luck too!

New Images from JF

JF has released the new version of his images. Find a download mirror and the full announcement after the break. (Update: 1.31 is now released, minor bugfixes)

Quickies

Not much is happening due to the holidays, but here are some quick updates on Android Market, Lenovo and cupcake/master/rc31ish.

General Updates

So I try not to post stuff everyone else is posting (unless I'm breaking the story :) ..) but the onscreen keyboard hw demo video (after the break) is pretty cool. And I've got some site updates.
