WITHOUT TRANSCODING!
Gad I hate that when everybody wants to transcode your entire collection from one format to another. Sure, I've got a month and an extra 2TB to transcode and store your new format, but that makes no sense! I have the iPhone's and iPod's streaming from a uPnP (minidlna and MythTV, but others [...]
After another bout of screensaver lockups, upon logging in again, I see the background and the unified menu for the Nautilus/Unity file manager and nothing else. Knowing a few hotkeys didn't launch anything, the most I could do was log back out or start up the file manager.
The easy fix?
Press Control-Alt-F1 and log [...]
This makes the same backup file as the webUI:
vhexport -s ntbrad.com -U "file:///tmp/ntbrad.com"
See post here for what to do with this file!
At a recent Elastix/Cisco 7940 install, the phones were getting stuck at Unprovisioned, no dice.
For reasons we won't go into, the DHCP server was a Linksys router that had no provision to be able to hand out the Option 66 and Option 150 to let the phones pick up their config and firmware upon [...]
Well, finally figured out how to extract the guts of an ancient WordPress 2.0.7 site and merge it with my newer site. Turns out, wordpress is still awesome.

Lots of grousing on the internet from people that can't find the solution to this, and an amazing amount of total disinformation.
Here's the thing: WiFi only has 11 Channels. They overlap. A lot. Hover your mouse over the wireless icon on your laptop and see how many networks you see there. If you [...]
Couldn't finish the jailbreak with Redsn0w, kinda got it to boot with Greepois0n and restored about half the apps before I had to unplug and run an errand. Worked fine for the trip but was dead when I got home, wouldn't reboot or exit the black DFU mode. Lots of dinking around with Redsn0w and [...]
