Ubuntu Dirvish Server

I have an Ubuntu Server running a 1 terabyte raid 0 hard drive configuration. Dirvish, an rsync image based backup system is installed. There are two primary windows based machines that will be utilizing the new backup system, an office file server, and an in office application server. We might optionally add entries for everyone's in office machine, for email backups etc..

Vista quick how-to's

great vista guide on getting rid of pointless crap in vista

a little happier with vista

I have been unable to get all of my data off of the vista install on this laptop I work on, so I've tried to make do temporarily..

I turned off the windows search service in the services manager and I noticed an almost immediate increase in performance. I have a newer dell (a latitude d620) and I'm liking where I'm sitting now.. Might have to get the dvd burner to work, and then we'll be sitting very nice..

The next step is to get eclipse working correctly. I downloaded the callisto distro and loaded up jseclipse. I might just need to figure out how to work with eclipse more, but I am unable to get syntax completion working correctly. (the ctrl + space drop down listings...)

Yes, once this is all done, then I might be a happy man on Vista.

command line API

The Firebug command line provides these special functions for your convenience:

$$(selector)

Returns an array of elements that match the given CSS selector.
$x(xpath)

Prints an interactive listing of all properties of the object. This looks identical to the view that you would see in the DOM tab.
dirxml(node)

Prints the XML source tree of an HTML or XML element. This looks identical to the view that you would see in the HTML tab. You can click on any node to inspect it in the HTML tab.

By default, command line expressions are relative to the top-level window of the page. cd() allows you to use the window of a frame in the page instead.

asp.Net tree control

I need a cross browser solution for a custom tree control. Right now I've found the asp.Net web controls for IE has something, but I am not sure if this will only work in IE or if it actually generates JavaScript. I might have to just start working with some ajax on this one..

Virtual KVM: synergy

So no hardware required. I have a monitor with two inputs for signal (the old-school serial, and a dvi)
So basically I can set up the client on my ubuntu linux, and vista (soon to be xp again) laptop.

With this I'll be able to use the big monitor with either machine and not have to clutter the desktop with the laptop being there.. (just set it off to the side hooked up..)

Synergy KVM

I might even go and get another screen, maybe a bigger one or something..
