杂记 20110803 | Misc notes 20110803

1. Linux 查看程序访问的文件(类似filemon/processexplorer):
strace -e trace=file foo

2. mod_python 编译出错：
参考 http://blogold.chinaunix.net/u/19834/showart_2127433.html
connobject.c142行 !(b == APR_BRIGADE_SENTINEL(b) 改为!(b == APR_BRIGADE_SENTINEL(bb)

3. virtualbox 修改 host key: file -> preferences -> input

4. live meseenger 显示所有好友离线： 去控制面板->添加删除程序->修复live meseenger
也有说删除appdata的

5. linux 手动添加dns：
修改/etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf (可能还需要/etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf)，加入
prepend domain-name-servers 8.8.8.8;

6. Windows 7 godmode
建立文件夹，改名为GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}


1. Monitor files accessed by a process on Linux (like filemon/processexplorer)
strace -e trace=file foo

2. cannot compile mod_python
from http://blogold.chinaunix.net/u/19834/showart_2127433.html
at connobject.c line 142 change !(b == APR_BRIGADE_SENTINEL(b) to !(b == APR_BRIGADE_SENTINEL(bb)

3. Change host key in virtualbox: file -> preferences -> input

4. All contacts in live messenger appear offline: control panel -> add/remove programs -> repair live messenger
Some says deleting appdata also works

5. Manually add dns on Linux
In /etc/dhc/dchlient.conf (probably also /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf), add a line
prepend domain-name-servers 8.8.8.8;

6. God mode in Windows 7
Create a folder and rename it to GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

Determine Perspective Lines With Off-page Vanishing Point

In perspective drawing, a vanishing point represents a group of parallel lines, in other words, a direction. For any point on the paper, if we want a line towards the same direction (in the 3d space), we simply draw a line through it and the vanishing point. But sometimes the vanishing point is too far away, such that it is outside the paper/canvas. In this example, we have a point P and two perspective lines L1 and L2. The vanishing point VP is naturally the intersection of L1 and L2. The task is to draw a line through P and VP, without having VP on the paper. I am aware of a few traditional solutions: 1. Use extra pieces of paper such that we can extend L1 and L2 until we see VP. 2. Draw everything in a smaller scale, such that we can see both P and VP on the paper. Draw the line and scale everything back. 3. Draw a perspective grid using the Brewer Method. #1 and #2 might be quite practical. #3 may not guarantee a solution, unless we can measure distances/p...

Chasing an IO Phantom

My home server has been weird since months ago, it just becomes unresponsive occassionally. It is annoying but it happens only rarely, so normally I'd just wait or reboot it. But weeks ago I decided to get to the bottom of it. What's Wrong My system set up is: Root: SSD, LUKS + LVM + Ext4 Data: HDD, LUKS + ZFS 16GB RAM + 1GB swap Rootless dockerd The system may become unresponsive, when the IO on HDD  is persistantly high for a while. Also: Often kswapd0 has high CPU High IO on root fs (SSD) From dockerd and some containers RAM usage is high, swap usage is low It is very strange that IO on HDD can affect SSD. Note that when this happens, even stopping the IO on HDD does not always help. Usually restarting dockerd does not help, but rebooting helps. Investigation: Swap An obvious potential root cause is the swap. High CPU on kswapd0 usually means the free memory is low and the kernel is busy exchanging data between disk and swap. However, I tried the following steps, none of the...

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...
