杂记 | Misc Notes

1. Firefox 全屏时显示地址栏和标签栏，设置browser.fullscreen.autohide=false

2. 禁用一个upstart的服务: echo "manual" >> xxx.conf，natty的upstart版本支持了override文件，于是可以 echo "manual" >> xxx.override

3. bootchart小工具可以分析开机时各程序启动，资源占用等情况，另有pybootchartgui可以将结果转换成图片查看

4. colortest 用于测试终端对颜色支持情况

5. synapse 一个 gnome-do 替代品，不依赖mono，重启compiz也不会崩溃

6. vimperator 最近又用了一下，比以往好了很多，装上以后多了各种快捷键，同时也不影响原来的界面。对gmail和google reader有冲突，之需要按一下ctrl+z

7. solarized 一个很不错的颜色主题，可以用于vim mutt terminal等等，很不错。也有对gnome-teriminal的移植，但是我这里显示效果不是很好

8. Terminus 一个很不错的终端字体，适用于小字号


1. To show the location bar and tab bar when Firefox is in fullscreen mode, set browser.fullscreen.autohide=false

2. To disable an upstart service: echo "manual" >> xxx.conf. Staring from Natty, upstart has supported the override files, so we may use: echo "manual" >> xxx.override

3. bootchart is a small tool to visualize the performance (of programs, resources) in the boot process, and pybootchartgui is available to convert result into images.

4. colortest is something useful to test the color capabilities of terminals

5. synapse is an alternate of gnome-do, which does not depend on mono, and does not crash when restarting compiz

6. vimperator: has been using it again, now it's much better than before, with many convenient shortcuts, while keeping the old interfaces. It conflicts with the key binds in gmail and google reader, but can be resolved by pressing ctrl+z

7. solarized is a great color scheme for vim mutt terminal etc. There's also a port for gnome-terminal, which unfortunately does not look good on my machine

8. Terminus is a good font family for terminals, best in small font sizes.

A Rocky Migration: Moving from docker-compose to Podman and gVisor

I've been running a few containers for several years. They were all running under rootless Docker with a single user. Initially, I planned to  migrate the containers to VMs , but I couldn't get a stable workflow after about two months of effort. Later,  gVisor caught my attention , and I decided to migrate to Podman with gVisor instead. The new plan is to run each container with  --userns=auto  and use Quadlet for systemd integration. This approach provides better isolation and makes writing firewall rules easier. I'm now close to migrating all my containers. Here are a couple of rough edges I'd like to share. Network Layout I compared  various networking options  and spent a few hours trying the one-interface-per-group approach before giving up. I settled on a single macvlan network and decided to use static IP addresses for my containers. To prevent a randomly assigned IP address from conflicting with a predefined one, I allocated a large IP range for my ...

GameConqueror 0.09 -- Linux Game Hacking Tool

If you are a game hacker If you've been looking for a `CheatEngine for Linux` Then you can't miss this. ============================================== GameConqueror is a game hacking tool for linux, it's written in PyGTK and uses scanmem as its backend. It's supposed to be with most useful features of CheatEngine for Linux. Currently, I've implemented almost everything about scanning, involving variant data types and scan types: Data Types: int{8/16/32/64}, float{32/64}, unknown type(int or float) and unknown width(will try each of them), byte array and string Scan Types: equal, greater, less, changed, unchanged, increased(by), decreased(by) This should be enough for most cases, so I decided to release it at the current status. ============================================= Here's how you can get it PPA (for Ubuntu users) https://launchpad.net/~coolwanglu/+archive/scanmem (I've not test it in 32bit environments or Jaunty, do please inform me if it doe...

Fix Google Security Code

Google Security Code (http://g.co/sc) is one type of 2-step verification. This is particularly useful when security keys and passkeys are not available. I have been using it in my LXC containers, until today I found out that it stopped working. It just kept saying "The code is invalid". It is easy to rule out some factors: The code works on other browsers on my laptop. The code works on other devices that are directly connected to the router. So it appears that Google also checks IP addresses besides the security code. Recently I have IPv6 enabled, so most devices that are directly connected to the router have both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. But  I only enabled IPv4 for my LXC containers. So I guess when a code is generated by device A and used by device B, Google should be able to check that device A and device B are closely located. But in my case, IPv6 address appears on device A but not on device B, which may look suspicious. To fix the problem, I just needed to disable IPv...
