I found this great shell script to test your MySQL server. You need to have your MySQL server up and running a while before running the test to get valid data. With all the possible setting variations this is can be a handy tool.

Just wasted a good half hour trying to find a migration tool in Google Apps Standard Edition. After a lot of searching, I found out that there is none. Tip to Google. Write this in your guide!
So back to proven trusted tools like IMAPSync

Lenn-Art Subwoofer
Last time I ordered some speaker elements from Germany I ordered some extra Tang Band W8-740C subwoofer elements for a later build. I’ve been oogling this design to go with my home-built?ProAc 2.5 clones. Micke, a friend will make the boxes for me, provided I sent him the drawings. What an exellent excuse to try to learn Solidworks. Amazing program. I have designed my own version of the venerable GainClone amplifier with a beefed up power supply and will use two subwoofers in stereo. Nice to not have to build the boxes. Last time when I built the clones the apartment was filled with MDF dust for months.
I’ve had some bizarre problems with my DNS today. I checked /etc/resolv.conf but everything looked ok. Checked the settings dialog for my network and at first glance, that one seemed ok as well.

But normally there should be a dimmed version of the DHCP assigned values there.

Just select the empty one and press the minus sign. Sneaky little bug there!

Save your settings and you should be good to go.
I’m going to do the last installations tomorrow. And finally start measuring my listening-room so I can create a DRC setup. I’ve done some experiments, and the sound improvement is amazing! So there’s going to be a lot of sweep sounds in my apartment tomorrow.
There?s a problem with getting Perian to work in Snow Leopard. But there?s a quick fix outlined here, but If the PreferencePane is installed to only the current user, you need to paste the following into the terminal:
cd
cd Library/PreferencePanes/Perian.prefPane/Contents/Resources/Components
cp Perian.zip ~/Downloads
<code> cp CoreAudio/A52Codec.zip ~/Downloads
cp QuickTime/AC3MovieImport.zip ~/Downloads
cd ~/Downloads
unzip AC3MovieImport.zip
unzip A52Codec.zip
unzip Perian.zip
sudo mv Perian.component/ /Library/QuickTime/
sudo mv AC3MovieImport.component/ /Library/QuickTime/
sudo mv A52Codec.component/ /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/
Well, the iPad version seems to work ok. It’s actually quite nice to be able to write in landscape mode.
And the amazing thing is that now when the kids are at their grand mother, we still know how to have fun. I’ve been laughing my ass of all weekend. So I’m on for another 13 years.
