Here is my fun new project:
I purchased a new SSD Sata drive and installed it in my e-sata enclosure. The purpose, workstation anywhere.
So here is the concept, boot off my e-sata drive from grub in either my workstation or my laptop.
1) Install OS, this was rather easy, just booted off a live cd, selected the external drive, and let it add an entry to grub’s menu.lst
2) Add an entry to my laptop’s grub menu.lst with the same drive id etc… ( worked like a charm )
3) Configure Wifi Debian Squeeze, this was a little more difficult, as I didn’t have internet initially to download and update. Plugged in my Netgear usb wifi device and it auto-configured it. This is a few steps, first enable the non-free repo’s that’s easy google if you can’t remember how to do this. Then aptitude install firmware-iwlwifi wireless-tools.
4) Enable wired networking to be managed, by default it is not managed. Open, /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf and change the line managed=false to managed=true
5) Sound: worked out of the box
6) Quad Video with NVIDIA Quadro 380: Coming next.
6) NVidia Drivers (
So, the love affair with Ubuntu is over, they are obviously going after the Mac user, with the release of 11.04. In the newest release they have switched to Unity a system I hate for the decoration and window behaviour of the desktop.
Laptop today, workstation tomorrow and so on….

Today:
I’ve been working on transfer of several domains from a local host in Ann Arbor MI, known as A2Hosting.com to GoDaddy.com. The problem is their system is so basic it doesn’t have a way to get your authorization codes.
I can’t believe how unusable A2 really is, please if you are considering them visit http://www.liquidweb.com and become satisfied with your hosting provider.
Earlier today, I was using these two functions in combination and came across an article detailing that math.round was the better use of the two.
Here are my thoughts. Math.round will round off to the number of decimal places you are trying to get, however if the trailing decimal is a zero, it will not display. So $4.30 becomes $4.3 so if you use the (Math.round( whatever *100)/100).toFixed(2) would be your best combination.
So today I went through hell and back configuring my quad video for ubuntu. Currently I’m running dual Nvidia Quadro FX 380 dual-head video cards on Ubuntu 10.10 32bit.
Steps I tried before finding the answer:
1) Remove and Reinstall Driver
2) Remove and Reinstall Second GPU
3) Downloaded Nvidia Experimental Drivers
4) Deleted and Recreated xorg.conf over and over
** Then I checked my error log, and noticed this message:
Failed to Load PCI 2:0:0 Nvidia GPU
I’ve come to find out it’s a limitation with the 32 bit version of linux, not allocating enough resources to start the second GPU.
Opened up /etc/default/grub and added
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=”vmalloc=192M”
