Suse Studio - Create your distribution 03.06.08

The Suse team has created a fast distro creator. You can configure your own instalation images, not only by the packages that you want to be included, but also add extra files to it, anywhere. It’s completly free and a new image can be costumized in less than ten minutes, so, try it out!

Big Buck Bunny 31.05.08

And it’s out! The second open source powered movie, made from Blender, has been released. I’m already downloading it, from bittorrent, and anxious to watch it! Obviously, the download is completely free, but you can choose to order the DVD to support the team and the next open movie.

If you’re wandering, the first open movie was Elephant Dreams and I remember that the image quality was really something, so I’m really looking forward to this one!

Cube Craft 25.05.08

Ever felt the need to go back to your younger year and make some paper toys? CubeCraft is here for those of you!

The idea is simple: download the image, print it, cut, fold and it’s done. You don’t even need glue. I’ve made two of them, and they really rock! Have fun!

Updates 14.05.08

After a long time without time, I’ve finally managed to update my Wordpress installation and theme. It’s now using the latest 2.5.1 and, I think, it looks neat:)

Also, after testing my SSH keys, I’ve found out that they were vulnerable due to a patch in Debian, which made the random number generator guesseable. If you’re running a ssh-server, in a Debian-based distribution, you should test if your keys are compromised.

Ubuntu 8.04 is out! 24.04.08

With a bunch of changes, the Canonical supported Linux distribution is ready for you to download it, and see that, indeed, Linux can be for Human Beings!!

Quick post in a busy, busy week!
