Stuff Michael Meeks is doing
|
|
This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit my employer
Novell which is an amazing company, and also
Dell who in days of yore provided me with a
free laptop for Gnome development / conferences.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.

More mail backlog catchup; poked at SDL qemu irritation whereby
emulation stops making progress when you switch to another virtual workspace.
it seems a failing X11_GrabInput is causing the problem: why spend all your
life grabbing an unwilling X server ?
-
Irritated enough by the less-than-helpful "Create Document" nautilus
functionality; dug at nautilus trying to teach it to follow the KDE document
template work. Built the latest ooo-build HEAD.
-
Lunch, interrupted by call with Andy, team meeting, call with Guy.
Back to templates hackerage. Tried to make user-mode-linux compile - more
difficult than anticipated: when you avoid the interesting crasher / gcc
optimiser bug, you hit other nasties.
-
Worked late, finished and posted the nautilus template patch - it's
nice to get to some hacking again after a long break from it.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Novell, The
Lithuanian Gov't or Arnold Schwarzenegger. It's also important to
realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences,
bio.
or fun.
