Well, after some time looking for an error at my code, I realized that the cable could be the problem.

I’ve ordered a null cable (giving the spec) to the guys at my company. Well, I thought that they, at least, have read the spec, butt, no! They simply took a serial extension cable and gave me.

Blame on them.

Quando à beira da morte, Alexandre convoca seus generais e seu escriba e
relata a estes seus 3 últimos desejos:

1 - que seu caixão seja transportado pelas mãos dos mais reputados médicos
da época;
2 - que seja espalhado no caminho até seu túmulo, seus tesouros
conquistados (prata, ouro, pedras preciosas…); e
3 - que suas duas mãos sejam deixadas balançando no ar, fora do caixão, a
vista de todos.

Um dos seus generais, admirado com esses desejos insólitos, pergunta a
Alexandre a razão destes. Alexandre explica:

1 - Quero que os mais iminentes médicos carreguem meu caixão, para mostrar
aos presentes que estes NÃO têm poder de cura nenhuma perante a morte;
2 - Quero que o chão seja coberto pelos meus tesouros para que as pessoas
possam ver que os bens materiais aqui conquistados, aqui permanecem;
3 - Quero que minhas mãos balancem ao vento, para que as pessoas vejam que
de mãos vazias viemos e de mãos vazias partimos.

Today I’m very Happy!

I received a 2nd place in a photography conquest at my company.

It was amazing. The winner have his mp3 player and I got a trip to a river to do rafting and  abseiling(rappeling). Very Nice.

Sooner or later I’ll publish the picture here.

After some troubles with lots of e-mails with .ppt/.pps attachments I decided to separate them into another mailbox. The first question was: How?

As I use Linux and procmail (www.procmail.org), I searched at google trying to find someone with the same problem and probably with a solution. Many pages after, I found this page (http://hypermail.linklord.com/procmail.old/2001/Sep/0065.html) which has a similar problem and a more radical decision.

Changing just a bit the solution used I got this code that must be inserted in the  .procmailrc file:

:0B # slow regexp there's no other way
* ^Content-(Type|Disposition):(.|$[ ])*\.(pps|ppt|mpeg|wmv)
.entrada.ppt/

Which I use to redirect all mail with powerpoint and some movies to a special mailbox that I check only when I have time.

I hope this helps other people to do the same and get a better time reading important mail.

Today I bought a new tanker (it’s like a backpack that you put on top of the tank of your bike).

Very pretty and practical. I’m proud of my new acquisition. Perhaps later I’ll put some pictures of it here.

Cheers

today my sister was trying to print a file on the local printer and receives an error likes this :

lpr: error - unable to print file: client-error-not-possible

Investigating why she can’t print her document, Googling about it I’ve found many different things but none that applies to mine problem.

Ok, investigating ‘/var/log/cups/error_log’ I’ve found that cups were denying her access to that printer. Bingo.

Changing /etc/cups/printers.conf, looking for the configuration setup for that printer and adding

AllowUser mysisterusername

Does the job. Now she can print

I’m usign SUSE 10.X and cups to print.

An interesting program to use when you need to open terminal programs that you won’t be cancelled if your connection was broken and if you don’t want to use screen.

Interesting to use with shell scripts.

many days without a post….

Today I was very upset with something I could’nt realize what is

Then I went out to gym. Two hours later I’m good

Nothing that a exercise couldn’t do for you …

Today I’ve reached the fabulous number of 4,900 pictures taken with my digital camera.

I’ve updated the last post on multiply with the Folklore pictures.

Now I’m too tired.

It’s Time to go to bed.
