		<title>Reboot</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After more then 1&#189; year of absence I&#8217;m trying to get active again. I&#8217;ll see, how it goes. First steps were the usual round of updates to install, update to WordPress 3.2.1 and a new theme with some little tweaks from me. This even included the usage of one of Google&#8217;s web fonts.

		<title>Linux 2.6.33</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Shortly after Linux 2.6.33 was released the respective Gentoo kernel sources became available as well. Curious as I am, I decided to give the new kernel a quick whirl, possibly in the hope that my PulseaudioALSA problem might be fixed. I tried this with my PC at work, which is equipped with an old GeForce [...]]]></description>

		<title>Comparing analog and digital radio on the cable.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Out of curiosity I decided to compare the audio quality of a local radio station (1Live), which I can receive in analog and in digital via my local cable operator. The privately owned radios on the cable are encrypted and can only be received with the appropriate CA Module and a SmartCard for the DVB-C [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fixes for ACPI wakeup and X11 resolution switch</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I wrote here, that since my switch to Linux kernel 2.6.32 the ACPI wakeup didn&#8217;t work anymore. After a new search through the internet I came across this article mentioning a conflict with the HPET. As a workaround booting with hpet=disable is suggested. And indeed with this workaround ACPI wakeup works again. Looking at the [...]]]></description>

		<title>First experiences with Linux kernel 2.6.32</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last week Linux 2.6.32 was released. I&#8217;m currently using it with the bfs-scheduler patchset. I experienced three glitches so far on my Gentoo installation. I hope these are not cases of RTFM. Portaudio with ALSA cmipci-driver With a freshly rebooted kernel I&#8217;m pretty quickly seeing these messages in /var/log/message. pulseaudio[4338]: alsa-util.c: Dies ist wahrscheinlich ein [...]]]></description>

		<title>Inkscape keyboard and mouse reference as a booklet</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve used Inkscape on a couple of occasions. Inkscape is such a powerful program, but I think, it&#8217;s it&#8217;s not one of the easiest to use. Somehow, each time I&#8217;m using Inkscape I&#8217;m again struggling with the same basic concepts. I can&#8217;t really say, how things would need to be changed, to make it really [...]]]></description>

		<title>Last confirmation about the defect disk. (Updated)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In preparation of sending the Samsung hard disk back to the dealer as a warranty issue, I cleared the whole disk with a &#8220;dd&#8221; command (dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=64k). I monitored the process by running vmstat 10 in another terminal window. The resulting bo-column (block out) is reflected by the diagram to the right. The [...]]]></description>

		<title>Heureka, I&#8217;ve found it &#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since I&#8217;ve build my PC in the beginning of 2008 I&#8217;ve been struggling with the disc write performance. Evidence of my problems are these posts: here, here and here and here. According to the changelogs of the recently released Linux kernels, there were quite a bit of changes in the ext3/ext4 file systems. Therefore in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sun Type 6 Keyboard</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve written about my issues with my SUN Type6 keyboard in the company. I&#8217;ve finally found a 100% satisfactory solution. In the end, all fiddling with xmodmap and setxkbmap didn&#8217;t really help. To really fix my issues I needed to edit the file /usr/share/X11/xkb/keycodes/evdev to shuffle some keycodes around. In the end I made these [...]]]></description>

		<title>These little (annoying) problems &#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[SUN Type 6 Keyboard In the company I&#8217;m using a SUN Type6 USB keyboard. I&#8217;ve tried a couple of keyboards, but this still has the nicest feel of them all. The Linux evdev assigns the symbols Super_R (1 in the right picture), Menu (2 in the picture) and ISO_Level3_Shift (3 in the picture) in order [...]]]></description>
