turning off udev for eth0
...instance to have the changes take effect. All this does is return the new guest to the prototype eth0 configuration. Is there no way to alter udev's behaviour? Is udev even needed on a server system using virtual hardware?

TentSteak First Release
Hey all, I just pushed out the inaugural release of TentSteak 0.1.0, a set of Camping/Markaby helpers to minimize the busywork in your views (or was that the "viewwork in your busies"?). It includes lotsa HTML form and table helpers, plus a little bootstrapper to make it easy to load in shared helper modules of your own. Please check it out and let me know what you think. I''d love feedback on...

Running R from a CD on Windows?
...ing directory folder I just copied to the desktop. The problem is that to create the desktop R icon you need to know that Rgui.exe is on the CD in the bin subfolder of the R-2.6.1 folder, which I know but the person being introduced to R for the first time does not. And creating a desktop icon is busywork that some find annoying. And then the user needs to copy the basic working directory folder to the desktop, since R needs to be able to write to it and writing to the CD can't work with a write-once CD. Alas, my uses just want to put the CD in the drive and have the autorun facility take care...

[PATCH TRIVIAL v2] gpu: Fix Kconfig indentation
...split such trivial patch per each driver. Thanks. See MAINTAINERS, many of the drivers are maintained in the same drm-misc repo, and it makes no difference to split those. In general it's, well, trivial to split up patches like this per driver or repo, but not splitting it up generates extra busywork in managing conflicts until some common merge/backmerge happens. We just want to apply the patch and forget about it, instead of dealing with a trivial whitespace cleanup many times over. BR, Jani. -- Jani Nikula, Intel Open Source Graphics Center

Best practices in developing package: From a single file
...especially now that you can write in markdown and have it automatically translated to Rd formatting commands. And on the negative side of Rd, I find it frustrating to have to copy and paste the function definition to the usage section every time I modify an argument. It just feels like unnecessary busywork that the computer should be able to do for me (although I do understand why it is not possible). >> Writing my first piece of R documentation was made much easier by using >> roxygen2, and it shallowed the learning curve substantially. > > I'm not completely up to date on Rox...

Could be. However, I think editing comments in a .R file is a bit harder than editing text in a .Rd file, so I think the format discourages editing. I think it does

State of Vorbis, 20000409
...even if not to own it. If you want to work on this but have questions, you own my attention. Minor lib cleanup and testing of 'unusual stuff'; things like returning error details instead of only an error status, supporting truncated packets, etc. These details fall into the 'brainless busywork' category, but gotta be done. Once the merge is done, this stuff is probably mine. Monty --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/

[LLVMdev] IC profiling infrastructure
...lso, this type should just go in the InstrProf.h header, no need for its own. 3. Arguably, we could update the raw format and implement the RawInstrProfReader changes (but ignoring the new data) first. If you think this is worthwhile go ahead, but if it'll lead to too much extra busywork it probably isn't worth it. I'm sending some review on the patches themselves as well, but I expect those to mostly be on the mechanical aspects since the high level points are already written down here.

Vorbis bitstream specification...
Hi, I'm looking for more documentation on the Vorbis bitstream format. The goal for me is to write an optimized decoder using only integer or fixed point math for use on the Phatnoise Car Audio System (see http://www.phatnoise.com). I've already found the info on the Ogg framing system and I've already written my own thing for parsing through Ogg frames (easy). Also, is RTP

Terrible inbound call quality vs. outbound
Hi. I'm having a terrible time with call quality coming into my * box. I'm using VoicePulse over a 1.5/1.5 mbit line. Outbound calls are crystal clear on both the RX/TX sides of the conversation. Inbound calls, though, are HORRIBLY garbled on the RX side. I can barely hear the caller, but they report my quality is fine. Getting loads of garbled sounds and weird echoes. (Could just be

The computer (via R CMD check) does tell you what is missing. I'd guess that the transfer could be done automatically, but it would be in a very editor-specific way, e.g. an RStudio ad...

Markdown development
Not only is [Markdown] dead, it's starting to smell really bad. (Apologies to Pike.) It's author appears to have little interest in developing the tool and participating in the community which uses it. I'd like to see the community cooperate toward a specification which addresses the shortcomings and ambiguities of Markdown (even if it need be released under a new name).

Concerns over Rails' handling of tests
Sorry if this comes across as a bunch of disjointed thoughts...I''m just trying to put my thoughts down and I''d like to know what other people''s opinions on the subject are. I''ve been working with Rails for 3 or 4 months now and I''m constantly trying to look at ways of improving my testing techniques, especially when it comes to TDD. I have a few
