Nexus One ADB on Ubuntu 9.10/Arch Linux

Brian — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 22:20:44 +0000

So I just spent the last hour trying to get the Nexus One and ADB to play nicely together on my machine. Finally it is working and here is how… /etc/udev/rules.d/90-android.rules SUBSYSTEM=="usb|usb_device", SYSFS{idVendor}=="18d1", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev" SUBSYSTEM=="usb|usb_device", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", ATTR{idProduct}=="4e12", SYMLINK+="android_adb" SUBSYSTEM=="usb|usb_device", ATTR{idVendor}=="0bb4", ATTR{idProduct}=="0fff", SYMLINK+="android_fastboot" sudo restart udev This should allow any user in the plugdev group [...]

I needed a dock for my Nexus One and currently they don’t exist. So I made one out of Legos. I think it turned out pretty well.

Nexus One

Brian — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 16:27:10 +0000

My Nexus One arrived yesterday. I haven’t been this excited about a device in a long time and Christmas was good. I’m guessing I was one of the first couple hundred people to place an order and so far, I really like it. I don’t really feel like typing an actual review, so bullets it [...]

SmugMug Uploader Updated

Brian — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 18:58:40 +0000

I have updated the SmugMug uploaders I released previously to include the latest version of phpSmug as well as making the uploader only look at image files. In the not too distant future, I hope to add video files. Download the package

PHP Uploader for SmugMug

Brian — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 19:55:00 +0000

EDIT (9/28/2009): I pulled the sourcecode out of the post as it was far too long. I have also updated the download package with a couple of important fixes. I just recently started playing with SmugMug and am really liking it so far. One of my complaints so far is the upload process. Let me [...]

SmugMug

Brian — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 19:27:21 +0000

In my never-ending quest to find the ultimate in online photo management tools, I am currently trying out SmugMug. Currently all of my images are self-hosted as I like the control that gives me. After a recent event however, the software I’m using (ZenPhoto) started choking on my uploaded images. This isn’t really ZenPhoto’s fault [...]

Irssi, Irssi Proxy and Bitlbee

Brian — Fri, 07 Aug 2009 13:48:16 +0000

Quick summary: How to make communications as convenient yet convoluted as possible. In my seemingly endless desire to play with changing the way I do things, I have modified the way I use instant messaging. While at work I am constantly connected to IRC in order to keep up (in realtime!) with things going on [...]

Vista won’t turn off the monitor

Brian — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 19:29:38 +0000

I run Vista at home primarily for gaming purposes (and I like uTorrent). One of the problems I had with it lately was it not turning off the monitor when the power saving plan was supposed to. I would watch it try and turn off, but usually wouldn’t quite succeed. Eventually I determined the problem [...]

OpenDNS kills Google

Brian — Wed, 13 May 2009 20:11:41 +0000

Yesterday I was having problems getting to Google. The rest of the internet worked fine, but I couldn’t connect to Google. It struck me as unlikely that Google would be down and check with Down for Everyone confirmed that it was just me. After much digging and a bit of thinking, I discovered google.com was [...]

Adobe Air in Jaunty (Ubuntu 9.04)

Brian — Fri, 24 Apr 2009 16:35:16 +0000

I just finished reinstalling Ubuntu 9.04 and was trying to install my air applications. Not terribly difficult… Download the installer from: http://get.adobe.com/air/ Install ia32-libs Install lib32nss-mdns (from http://tr.im/jCFs ) Install your apps I got stuck on the third step when I was going through things. I could install Adobe Air applications, but they had no [...]
