NFS kicks CIFS ass right now
This week, I bought a 1TB Iomega drive for backing up purposes. The family laptop is full of photos (one big mess of course, but that is beside the point) and then there is the Popcorn Hour media center that also stores many files that we really do not want Lees verder…

oculusd 0.18
A few weeks passed, and I sat down for some hacking. Here is oculusd version 0.18: the command function prototype has changed; it now also takes a struct connection pointer.

Hybride wagens en meer marketing onzin

Return value of a CakePHP Shell
Another one I had to figure out by reading the source code: how to make your CakePHP Shell return something else than 0 in $?. It is very easy, if you let your main() return false, your Shell will return 1 in the console. Unfortunately it is not possible to Lees verder…

Removing the “Welcome to CakePHP…” message in a Shell
It is quite easy, but I had to ask on IRC (the very good #CakePHP channel on FreeNode) and browse the CakePHP source code to find it. The welcome message is output by the protected _welcome() call (in cake/console/shell.php). This method is called by the startup() call, which can be Lees verder…

oculusd 0.16-2
Another quick release. I created an RPM file and changed to installation directories to /usr, instead of /usr/local. The available RPM is x86_64 only, but you are invited to create others. From now on, I will release source and RPM packages. More on the project page.
