First Arch Linux Post & some other little tidbits

Well, as you probably don’t know (since I have yet to advertise on my *new* blog) I’m an avid Arch Linux User. I just love it to pieces. I use it on my personal servers & clients. I recently have been dumping some time into updating my packages: Link to my AUR Packages

I recently acquired the rtorrent-svn / libtorrent-svn / xmlrpc-c-svn packages. I deleted the *-wt packages and merged them with the standard -svn packages. Hooray!

I have also been working on the OpenVZ package (updating the hell out of it). I updated it using the theroy behind this wiki link : Kernel_Compilation_with_ABS I have compiled the darn thing about 10 times as of now, and atm I’m hoping that I’m on the last compile (crossing my fingers that it will work)

I have started using subversion a little more in depth, and have been trying out branches:

I’m trying my hand at a new wiki solution to keep my notes. The one that I’m using now (Zim Desktop Wiki) works on Mac OS X, yet isn’t native, and runs poorly. For the longest time I was using Arch Linux in a Virtual Container on my Mac Book Pro, yet recently have become fed up with the resource hog also know as VMWare Fusion. Back to the wiki solution, my overall goal is to have a git repo, and either use a popular wiki platform and ‘git’ it. Or try my hand at a git-wiki. I found a couple, and am turned off at git-wiki because or it’s unconventional web server, so I’m most definitely going to try WiGit.

WiGit

git-wiki

I’ll make sure to post my results…
