Vindozo 7 allows one to set a second sound card for voice applications, which is very nice if you have two cards or an USB headset, since you automatically get voice calls on your headphones from apps that support the feature. In others, like Ventrilo, you’ve to...

A PowerBook refused to eject a DVD by any means (on boot, from OpenFirmware…), seemingly a common occurrence. After disassembling it, I found one of the levers on the optical drive’s mechanism had somehow “jumped” out of it’s place...

Updated Rhythmbox from Lucid to Maverick’s version, to see if it would improve cold startup times. It didn’t, but it did break sync with my iTouch, besides rescanning all my collection. So I downgraded back to Lucid, only to find Rhythmbox had...

Never mind the draconian DRM and that you can’t use an iPod as something as basic as mobile storage; the hardware is still excelent, and it does the few things they allow with remarkable stability and ease –too easy for my taste though, I wish half...

Brown lines appear from the right, “stabbing” at any onscreen text and the mouse cursor, like the ghost of Winamp has taken possesion of the screen. It happens randomly, after the monitor has been on for a while (heat?), and stops as suddenly as it...

Actually, the PDA says “Synchronizing Tasks” (or whatever conduit runs before Backup), but the PC shows “Making backup copies of the PDA’s databases” (or something like that). And indeed, Tasks are already synchronized and the Palm hangs...
