Netiquete

There are some Netiquete guides on the web, but in my humble opinion this one provides the best synthesis (a genuine classic):

Hardy and VLC

After an upgrade from Unbuntu Gusty to Hardy the vlc was with no sound.

Solution:

upgrade to vlc 0.9.0

For Ubuntu Hardy I386 add the following line to your sources.list:

deb http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/hardy-i386/arch ./

or simply add the line above to your repository list at Administration > Synaptic > configuration > third party programs > add

update synaptic

then search for the new version

C Extension Support

Just discovered what was going wrong with my app in Heroku. There is no support for Ruby C Extensions (yet, hope so). So important gems like hpricot and feed-normalizer don’t work. Damn, this time was not my fault. Kind of relief… So if you try to install apps like ‘aintablog’ (http://aintablog.com) and many others that require those gems mentioned, you better pay a nice web host, wait (duh!) or work on something else.

Heroku drives me nuts

Sometimes Heroku.com just drive me nuts. Wrong migrations, incompatibilities, obsolete methods, etc. The worst thing is that usually (99%) it is my fault - hence it’s not Heroku thats driving me mad. Damn, I have to learn so much, focus, focus… Thanks Heroku, sorry Heroku.
