Kids for Democracy/NH with Senator Evan Bayh

Originally uploaded by marcn.

We attended a fundraiser this afternoon for Betsi DeVries of Manchester's Ward 8 who is running for State Senator. The featured speaker was Senator Evan Bayh of Indiana.

During the Q&A, Spencer asked "if we will be seeing more of you here in New Hampshire?" The answer was "Yes" ;-)

Riya beta is here!

I got an invitation for the riya beta, but I have to say "riyasux"

Check out this gotcha from their email:
The Riya uploader is PC only right now. Darn it, we know. If you are on a Mac and you can find a friend with a PC, you can upload there, then train, tag and search your photos on your Mac. We promise that we are working on that Mac uploader. Please keep sending those stats. ;)

By "PC" they mean Windows-only, so Linux (and Mac) users are out of luck.

Come on riya, don't you know all the cool kids (pronounced early adopters) use GNU/Linux and Mac these days?

Getting NetworkManager to work on Ubuntu/Dapper



network-manager-working.jpg

Originally uploaded by marcn.
I've been running the currently unreleased Ubuntu/Dapper release after having upgraded first from Hoary to Warty before arriving at Dapper.

Somewhere along the way something prevented the cool new NetworkManager from starting up. Whenever I logged it would immedately exit with a useless message about not finding all the needed resources.

Last night at the GNHLUG meeting, Christopher Aillon of Red Hat told me the magic command to fix it:
$ sudo gtk-update-icon-cache -f /usr/share/icons/hicolor

The lack of some icon cache was preventing a network configuration tool from running. Ugh.

This allowed the applet to start, but wasn't controlling the network devices. For that, I needed to remove references to any network devices so the only thing in my /etc/network/interfaces are these lines:
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
