It’s a good thing I check my blog stats otherwise I never would have known about this. Linux Format has released, through TuxRadar, the PDFs for 18 of my GIMP tutorials from my column in their magazine. Pretty cool. I’d always hoped they’d get a wider net audience. Too bad […]
linux format
I’ve added copies of the final image from each of the last four tutorials I did for Linux Format’s GIMP column. These are the last of the series, as Linux Format is putting the coumn to sleep for now. They said it might come back later. For now, however, I’ll […]
LXF Gallery updated and updating my
6 Over the holidays I upgraded my laptop to Fedora 10 (previously I had only upgraded my MythTV server). The upgrade went fairly smoothly following the information from my previous post on upgrading a MythTV server to F10. However, my laptop supports dual monitors. Of course, that didn’t work out of […]
Fedora 10 issues with intel driver and multihead
There is a lot of information on the net about using WordPress as a CMS (content management system), in other words using WP as the foundation for a regular (non-blog) website. But that information is kind of spread out and not completely clear on the process required. Fortunately, it’s very […]
Using WordPress as a CMS: making e-Commerce Lite work on ...
I posted a few new images and added more descriptive filenames to my GIMP Gallery. All of the new stuff is under the LinuxFormat and Logos pages. Nothing earth shattering. Just stuff I’ve been meaning to do for some time. I had to fix some bugs in my admin scripts […]
GIMP Gallery updates
I’ve resigned from writing for Tux Magazine. I only wrote for them for the first 5 issues, but the anti-GNOME sentiment really started to bug me. While I have nothing against KDE, I just don’t use it much. I mean, after all, I was there when GTK+ was born – […]
Tux and the anti-Gnome sentiment
I’ve discovered that the Aiptek HyperPen 1200U (available refurbished directly from Aiptek) drawing tablet is supported under Linux. The drivers appear to support nearly the complete feature set. At less than 1/2 the price of what a comparable Wacom drawing tablet would cost I can’t help but try one of […]
Aiptek HyperPen 12000U and GIMP
Since my last entry the world has moved a little for me. It moved me to Colorado Springs, Colorado. I’m here with yet another company (I’ve lost count now how many that makes) to provide my skills as a Linux professional. I’m coding – a little. I’m running lots of […]
Where in the world is ….
Since mylast entry RLXTechnologies has folded, leaving me (yet again) on the job hunt. They aren’t actually shut down but they cut 80% of the staff. The hardware guys up in Portland got picked up by Intel, so I’ve been told. I’m not sure how manyfrom my group are left […]
As the stomach churns…
I posted a new section to the GIMP Gallery to display the artwork I’ve been doing for Linux Format magazine. Linux Format is a glossy print publication from Future Publishing targeted and end users and is published in the UK. Note that their web site doesn’t do their publication justice, […]
