WangLu's Notes

新买了电脑，装ubuntu 10.10， 安装的时候控制台很完美，漂亮的1366x768，启动时还有漂亮的splash 刚装之后似乎是好的，最近却又不行了，控制台要么进不去，要么是恶心的1024x768。 想了想，自己的改动主要是配了grub2，还有就是装了fglrx。 grub配了几次无果，于是继续回到安装时的live cd，进去以后研究了一下，并没有用vesafb，另外就是发现用的是开源驱动radeon。 用hwinfo --framebuffer看，我的显卡vbe并不支持1366x768，但是live cd确实搞出来了，我猜是radeon和kms的原因，具体不懂了。 于是卸掉了fglrx，重启。 于是又看到了漂亮的splash，漂亮的1366x768控制台。 另外gnome的俄罗斯方块也能正常玩了，用fglrx的时候反而不正常。 期待radeon好好发展。fglrx太差了。。。 I've installed ubuntu 10.10 in my newly bought notebook, the console was perfect during installation, that was the wonderful 1366x768, as well as the beautiful splash. I think everything was still ok just after installation, until now, I see just a blank screen, or some ugly 1024x768. What I've done, that maybe relative, are just some tweak on grub2, and installing fglrx. After failure in adjustment of grub2 for several times, I reboot with the live cd, and I found that vesafb is not used, and radeon is activated as the video driver. `hwinfo --framebuffer` indicates that the vbe of my gr...

To make it like this, in the "properties“ dialog of the panel, cancel "expand" and select "autohide". Then drag the panel to the top-right of the screen. At last change the gconf value "/apps/panel/toplevels/<panel name>/hide_delay" to 2147483647

sky.fm是我的最爱，原来ios有个sky.fm app，但是现在连不上了。 sky.fm现在也提供非flash的播放link，但是要进入那个flash页面，然而在ipad的safari上就会蹦到安装flash player的页面，很恶心。 当然如果有别的电脑可以去把link拷过来，但是没有。 于是搜了半天，发现了sky.fm/mobile。很好用，safari会自动调用quicktime，放后台也ok。 Sky.fm is my favorite online radio, there's been a sky.fm app on ios, but has been not working these days. Non-flash links are also provided by sky.fm, however you'll need to visit the flash player page first, then get the links. While doing this with safari on ipad, you'll be redirect to a page which asks you to install flash player. Of course, I can get the links from another computer, but there is not such another computer. So I googled for a while, until I found sky.fm/mobile. Quite useful, since safari would call quicktime to play the list, so I can even listen to it putting it into background.

最近想订阅一个RSS feed，然而由于权限设置，需要登录才能拿到内容，未登录的情况下feed url会报错。 这种情况下Google Reader就不好使了，即便可以，总不能把我的用户名密码给它吧。 Google许久无果，最后想到了用Firefox自己订这个feed，因为Firefox里有我的Coookie。 于是成功了。 Now I'd like to subscribe a private RSS feed, where login is necessary, you won't see anything from the feed url without login. In such a situation Google Reader won't work, even if possible, I don't want to reveal my username/password to it. After wasting several minutes in Googling, I came up with an idea, that to subscribe the feed using Firefox, as it's holding my Cookies. Then of course I succeeded.

最近用Firefox订了一个feed，想把它显示出来，然而又不想为此浪费一行显示书签工具栏，于是把bookmark toolbar item拖到了地址栏尾部。 然而这个item是会自动收缩的，于是浪费了一段空白，而且我的feed需要展开才能看。 解决方法，利用stylish #bookmarksBarContent .bookmark-item { visibility: visible !important; } 即可。 Recently I've subscribed a live feed using Firefox, I want it being displayed in my browser all the time, but I don't like the bookmark toolbar which wastes the entire line space. Therefore I drag the bookmark toolbar item to the end of the location bar. However, that item will automatically collapse, resulting in that there's just a blank area, with an expand button, I have to view the item after expand the item, so stupid. The solution is, by stylish: #bookmarksBarContent .bookmark-item { visibility: visible !important; } works like a charm.
