Testing around with Gallery 2

Since <a title=”Gallery” href=”http://gallery.sourceforge.net/”>Gallery 2</a> has now been released since a while and isn’t beta anymore I thought it would be time to give it a try and see how it looks like and how the administration is. Well… I can only say &quot;wow&quot; this realy is a great piece of software !<br />The import from Gallery 1 was so easy, I just needed the Path to my old album and then some clicks and some coffee to wait till the import finishes  since it took quite a while for almos 3000 pics.<br />So here it is, my first <a title=”G2 Album” href=”http://www.livadaru.net/cristian/gallery2/”>album with gallery 2</a>

The German “Helpfulness”

<img width=”110″ hspace=”5″ height=”71″ border=”0″ align=”left” src=”http://www.livadaru.net/cristian/blog/uploads/heavy.serendipityThumb.gif” />I had to remove the subs and amps from the <a href=”http://vwclub.ro/index.php?set_albumName=passat_show&option=com_gallery&Itemid=29&include=view_album.php” title=”My sound machine”>trunc of my car </a><p>and how knows me has an idea that these things are really heavy. So after disconnecting all the cables I had to get it from the car in my apartment in Stuttgart, the distance was about 5 meters to the house entrance and another 5 to the apartment, but since this stuff is to heavy for a person I asked some teenagers hanging around if they have 2 minutes to give me a helping hand.</p><p>The first answer &quot;Is this a kidnapping?&quot; what the fu** ??? The next one was &quot;Why don’t you move the car nearer to the apartment ( so I could carry it my self was the message that was missing) <br />So I should have to walk about 2.5m less … WOW ! great why didn’t I think of that, think I am real stupid today … </p><p>But let’s not be so negative since there are also some helpful Germans, thanks to my colleague that came over to help me.<br />Yes, I had to call somebody to come over and give me a hand !</p><p>And a short message to the guy scared about the kidnapping … Why on earth should I kidnap you ? ever looked in a mirror ? <br />Or was this just some pervert fantasy of yours ? </p>

My windows got screwed again

After having a bit more time I thought it would be time to install linux on my laptop since windows started to do stupid things ( bluescreens and stuff like that ) and after receiving a ubuntu cd Package from moga (ecxod ) I started my new adventure for this week which as usual started as a bad week again. <br /><a href=”http://www.livadaru.net/cristian/index.php?/archives/8-guid.html#extended”>Continue reading “My windows got screwed again”</a>

A realy fucked up week

This week started real bad on monday morning. I had nothing better to do then update my debian server since I wanted to be up 2 date with all packages.<br /> Well here my problems started, seems like there where some changes in libc6 which don’t realy work quite good with pax from grsecurity. After a bit of searching I found a very interesting post on the <a title=”grsecurity forum” href=”http://forums.grsecurity.net/viewtopic.php?t=1152″>grsecurity forum</a><br /><br /> where they say: <strong>Debian users don’t update to glibc-2.3.4</strong><br /><a href=”http://www.livadaru.net/cristian/index.php?/archives/6-guid.html#extended”>Continue reading “A realy fucked up week”</a>

Castle Solitude in Stuttgart

<img vspace=”0″ hspace=”10″ border=”0″ align=”left” src=”http://www.livadaru.net/cristian/albums/solitude/aad.thumb.jpg” />What do you do on a nice sunny Sunday in Stuttgart ? well we decided to go to &quot;<a title=”Schloss Solitude” href=”http://www.stuttgart.de/sde/menu/frame/top.php?seite=http%3A//www.stuttgart.de/sde/item/gen/138050.htm”>Schloss Solitude</a>&quot;. It’s a nice place on the hills where you can look down<img vspace=”5″ hspace=”0″ border=”0″ align=”right” alt=”View” src=”http://www.livadaru.net/cristian/albums/solitude/aaf.thumb.jpg” /> on stuttgart and it is also a good idea to take a blanket and some sun lotion with you if it’s a sunny day, then you can lie there and look down on the city and feel bad about the people that have to work <img src=”http://www.livadaru.net/cristian/templates/default/img/emoticons/smile.png” alt=”:-)” style=”display: inline; vertical-align: bottom;” class=”emoticon” /> <br /><p>
