915resolution with built-in uvesafb
Submitted by Webmaster on Monday June 01, 2009

Submitted by Webmaster on Friday May 29, 2009
Today I released PowerConsole v.0.7 to the public. PowerConsole is an enhanced Python interpreter that can host user defined commands. It uses pyparsing-based grammars for user commands to translate them into python calls, so it has limited support for mixing them with Python code.

The Ubuntu Virtual Machine: For An Internet Safety Layer (Part I)
Submitted by Webmaster on Tuesday May 26, 2009
For a brief description:
I want to install Ubuntu Linux inside of a virtual machine (VM), using VirtualBox from Sun. To do that, I have to download VirtualBox software and an Ubuntu ISO image. Once I install both of those items, I create my virtual machine and associate it with my Ubuntu ISO image. I install Ubuntu on the VM. Last, I tweak the settings for my VM.
