Since last several months, I joined in 2006 as a in a 's project. It was a good experiences to work with someone far away from me to develop something that everyone could use it freely without any restrictions.

Two days ago must be marked as a big day for Linux lovers since Adobe released the beta version of Flash Player after taking over from Macromedia. It's a long time wait but it's worth. Since it is still in beta, there is no official package for Ubuntu yet. I have to install it manual. Not too bad, just follow me.

A few days ago, I had to connect to wireless network with WEP. It's my first time for WEP on Ubuntu. At the first glance, NetworkManager seemed to work because it known about the security and key. However, it didn't simply like that. In this situation, I have a key in ASCII format and I entered that key into NetworkManager with no luck. So I have to set it manually.

It has been for so long since the last official release of BTQueue, 0.1.3, and also the ongoing development in a seperate branch. As I mentioned earlier, BTQueue is moving to a new engine, BitTorrent 4.20.9. I would like to report the latest status of this branch.

Usually, the only method to configuring virtual networks in VMware is to run vmware-config.pl. As a result, you will have to answer lots of questions once again even though most of them are the default value and just need to press Enter. Today I would like to configuring my virtual networks for removing host-only network and nat in production machine. Hopefully it will help optimize the overall utilization a bit. Anyway, I don't want to answer those questions anymore. And I found the secret in /usr/lib/vmware/net-services.sh.

Drupal is widely adopted by large number of major sites around the world since it released 4.7.0 early this year. I like the idea to generate things instead of searching and replacing as usual. It's so call constructive approach. Well, Drupal 5.x is currently on the way. It has lots of promising features. By the way, Drupal has a trade-off problem which you might think it is very dangerous to implement your sites using Drupal. In short, Drupal is usually improved by each major version alot so the newer version might be incompatible to the later one. This problem may not be applied to the standard modules where official supports are available. The fact is that most contributions are incompatible to the newest version and it might be still incompatible until mid of next year.
