<html><body><p>Well,
Something broke on the main computer. The speed when trying to run
a few terminal apps, firefox, and thunderbird at the same time was
appalling. I never had that sort of performance issues under
ArchLinix on the same kit. I would love to take the time to debug it,
but I am almost four weeks behind in dealing with my photos, including
those from my trip to England, and I am getting ready to do run some
training courses for work which will suck up all my free time.</p>
<p>I am re-installing Arch on the two laptops. I should have restored
working configs in a day or two, and then I can start working on my
backlog of photo and other projects.</p>
<p>Also, since my laptops are not supported under 10-RELEASE, I want to
wait until 10.1 to see if my WLAN NICs are supported.</p>
<p>I still need to rebuild my server which has a failing drive (backed up
the data already, just need time). I may go ahead and put 10-RELEASE
on it since the NICs are fully supported.</p>
<p>d</p></body></html>

<html><body><p><img alt="On The Road Again" src="http://img.duckland.org/2014-05/StartMexico.jpg">
The reason I was busy at work is that I was getting ready for two different trips to conduct three different training courses.</p>
<p>Last week I was down in Mexico City to present some training to folks from Latin and Central America on one of our new products. Next month, I head off to Lost Wages, er, Las Vegas, for our major conference and two different training courses, while supporting a third.</p>
<p>That, and the fact the two oldest kids are in swim team right now, free time has drop to null.</p></body></html>

<html><body><p>So, I had a bit of time over the weekend, and spent it doing a bit of hacking around.</p>
<p>I had re-installed <a href="http://www.pcbsd.org">PC-BSD</a> on my HP EliteBook R810. I used 10.0.2, and everything but the wireless looked good. I decided to try to get the wireless working with the internal WNIC. <a href="http://www.duckland.org/2014/04/freebsd-challenge,-day-17">Previously</a>, I used an external dongle to get WiFi working, but it was a pain to remember to pull it out, so I decided to try again.</p>
<p>I updated the base OS to 10-CURRENT, and then 'patched' the source tree using the info I found <a href="https://forums.freebsd.org/viewtopic.php?t=35467">in this forum post</a>. Once I rebooted, and used the PC-BSD tools to enable the device, things worked! Since this was only last night, I need to test it a bit to make sure it stands up to load.</p>
<p>There is a <a href="https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=169433">PR</a>, and support <strong>has</strong> been added to HEAD. I am going try to write a patch to get this added before then. I will need to see if I can figure out how to do that. :)</p>
<p>Since my work laptop uses the same WNIC, I am one step closer to being able to install it on the work machine.</p>
<p>I am going to see about trying to use <strong><em>dragon</em></strong> as my non-work daily driver and shake out what I need to do, so I may be restarting the <a href="http://www.duckland.org/tag/30DayChallenge">30 Day Challenge</a> again, but a lot of that depends on how work goes.</p></body></html>

<html><body><p><img alt="View in front of The Venetian" src="http://img.duckland.org/2014-06/20140607094949.JPG">
I am back from Las Vegas for a trade show for work. The hardest part was two and a half days of setting up an isolated network for some hands on training.</p>
<p>The training went very well, and I got some good feedback from the students. By the last session, all the kinks were worked out of the training, and the students were able to explore a bit more than planned, but that was okay.</p>
<p><img alt="Gondolas waiting at The Venetian" src="http://img.duckland.org/2014-06/20140607095037.JPG"></p>
<p>The major downside is that I did not have much time but one day for a quick walk around where I was staying at The Venetian to take some photos. It is a shame, as there are lots of really cool visuals around the strip and in the area of Las Vegas. Maybe next time.</p>

<html><body><p><img alt="New Toy" src="http://www.getolympus.com/us/en/media/catalog/product/cache/hero_resize/600X245/em5_hero_black.png">
So, in 2013, I went to China twice, Tokyo, Las Vegas, London twice, and Barcelona. This was enough to get me some serious air miles. I decided to turn them into something to help me get back into photography, so I got <a href="http://www.getolympus.com/us/en/digitalcameras/omd/e-m5.html" title="Olympus E-M5">Olympus OM-D E-M5</a>. This is one of the latest in the line of Olympus DSLR. This one is a micros 4/3, with a built-in Electronic View Finder (EVF).</p>
<p>It showed up yesterday, and I have not had much of a chance to take it through its paces. I hope to have some time this weekend, but I have a major work project which might interfere.</p>
<p>Keep an eye out for some photos as I get a chance to try it out.</p></body></html>

<html><body><p>I just noticed I have not updated this in a few weeks. Sorry about that.</p>
<p>I have my R810 running PCBSD 10.0.2, and I just patched and configured WiFi on it. I need to figure out how to submit a patch to see if I can get the Centrino supported in the main-line kernel so I do not have to compile a custom kernel just for that.</p>
<p>I almost have this working where I can switch to it full time. I need to deal with getting my <strong>killer</strong> apps installed and working. I had most (all?) of them working before, so I know I can do it again.</p>
<p>Currently, FireFox is not working for me for some reason, but Chromium is, so I will use that for now.</p>
<p>I have started a wiki to keep some notes for myself on this (what SA has not done that?), so I hope this process will be easier this time.</p>
<p>peace.</p></body></html>

<html><body><p>So, I have upgraded my servers at the house to FreeBSD, and have set up the basic functions needed on them. So, now, I am down to only my main laptop running Linux. Oh, and the work machine which runs Windows 8.1.</p>
<p>So far, not much different than running Arch for the server. But, the magic will be when I start working with jails...</p></body></html>

<html><body><p>So, even though I have been starting to <a href="http://www.duckland.org/2014/06/back-to-freebsd-maybe-back-to-the-challenge">work with</a> <a href="http://www.duckland.org/2014/07/freebsd-switch">FreeBSD</a> <a href="http://www.duckland.org/2014/08/one-step-closer">again</a>, I am still running <a href="http://www.archlinux.org/">ArchLinux</a> on my workstation.</p>
<p>And I wanted to run a script I wrote a long time ago to support a <a href="http://www.donaldharper.com/">website</a> of mine, which I have not updated in a while. The way I would update the site is by doing some batch editing of photos, park them in a directory, and then run my script which pushes the photos to the web server, and then interfaces with the CMS software to schedule the posts and all is good.</p>
<p>Except the script is in perl, and it uses some modules which are not main-stream. While perl has the awesome <strong>cpan(1perl)</strong> command to fetch and install perl modules, I wanted it to be tied into <strong>pacman(8)</strong> . A quick trip to the <a href="http://aur.archlinux.org/">AUR</a> turned up the tools <a href="https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-cpanplus-dist-arch-git/">cpan2aur</a> and <a href="https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pkgbuild-introspection-git/">mkaurball</a> which made it pretty easy to package up and post the the AUR the 9 perl modules I needed to get my script going and keep track of things with pacman.</p>
<p>Yeah!</p></body></html>
