this is a bit much:

/home/zerodogg/.gfsgl/CVS/debug.log: Apple Old Partition data block size: 21331, first type: ., name: nd:hashall:interactive-comments, number of blocks: 1852403303,
I didn’t know it could create an entire partition out of a logfile.
In other news GFSGL version 0.91.0 (stable) has been released :).
I’ve just uploaded a screenshot of gmDB ported to GTK2 (a screenshot of the old GTK1 interface is available here).
I got alot of help from Chong Kai Xiong, on of the developers of Beep Media Player and there is no way I could have ported it to gtk2 this fast without the help hehe.
It also has a standard GTK2 error dialog for things that previously would only be echoed to stdout now (still echoed to stdout too). The code has been cleaned up and now compiles without warnings on gcc4. Perhaps it’ll be ready for a alpha or beta release soon :o.
…not officially this time either though.
Tomorrow we have a «study day», which is just my schools excuse of giving us a day off without actually calling it a day off. then on Wed-Thu I’m going to be in Oslo for the OOo meeting. I’m suppose to go to school on Friday but I’m going to take a «study day» (ie. a day off) that day :), since there is absolutely no point at all in going. Then on Monday we’re suppose to be there 2-4 hours, hopefully it won’t be long. So in practice school is over for now. I really need this vacation, and I’m probably going to get to do a bit of Mandriva packaging this summer too in addition to the OOo work. I just got developer (read not write) access to beep-media-players CVS too :)
Right now I’ve got a really cute cat lying on my lap, it’s a young one, so it’s quite tiny, currently sleeping but it’s been most playful all day, it’s an orphan so a friend of mine is «raising» her (to put it like that). Nice kitty :)
I finally got around to creating a webpage (mind you I am no web designer). It’s available at http://zerodogg.iamaturtle.org/. Theres not too much content there right now (except in Norwegian) but that’s coming.
The page has all of my notes from this year of school available (in Norwegian) under a creative commons license, thus hopefully perhaps aiding some student of the same thing next year! I had planned all along to make the notes available once the school year ended, now it’s over so they are available, hopefully I’ll be able to do this once the next schoolyear is over too.
I finally finished the nexuiz package! Got Michael to do a patch for it that makes it compile properly and split it into 4 subpackages (one nexuiz, nexuiz-glx, nexuiz-sdl and nexuiz-data). Now it’s time for me to have a break!
I just finished the last bit of “real” school work this year! Well…that is, I might still have to do an oral exam, I get to know about that on Monday, however since I’ve already had written exams in Math I can’t come up in oral Math and theres only one other class I can come up in, buut that won’t happen will it? Nope…ehe… Well, with my luck it will but I’ve still got a hope that it won’t since it’s only a really small chance I will :o
I’ve committed a (perhaps a bit buggy) version of gmDB to CVS, and updated the goldenfiles project webpage with information about it. It even has a screenshot. I don’t know if it’s still a good thing that when I need some piece of software I end up spending alot more time writing one (or in this case modifying one) than I would have just having it manually. In this case I’ve got a OOo Calc document with the members right now that gets the job done. Oh well.
In other news I’ve fixed my RSS feed now, so those reading on planet Mandriva will get the entire text instead of [...] (at least that’s what I’m hoping for :P).
Last week I got a reply on a job I applied for, I got it :).
The job is as a translator of OpenOffice.Org to Norwegian bokmål. I’m going to Oslo next week to attend a meeting before I start. I am one of two new translators (where the other one translates to Norwegian Nynorsk I believe). I’ve got it for two months this summer and if their budget allows it then it will be longer. Wohoo hehe.
Gmbase is a simple members database written in C that uses GTK. It looks useful for small organizations, such as the local LUG I’m currently the leader of. However it lacked a few small functions, namely support for phone and e-mail entries. I mailed the original author about it, but he told me that he doesn’t develop it at all anymore and that if I want any added functionality I’ll hav to do it myself.
Fair enough, only one problem…I don’t know that much C. I’ve done hello world ofcourse, but not too much other than that. Still, I thought I could at least give it a go and after alot of fiddling with it I actually managed to implement something new. So now I’ve forked gmbase and I’m calling it gmDB. I’ll release a alpha soon (calling it alpha since I don’t really know the programming language and then might need a bit of extra time for QA :P).
I’ve uhm, installed this blog, and thats about it for now :o.
