GURU Labs have impressive looking screensavers on their site. You’ll need an Nvidia or ATI chipset to view them though as they require hardware TCL support.
The Guru Labs site is well worth checking out for a wealth of other software packaged for Red Hat 8 and 9.

Michel, original b2 author is back!
The Full Irish mentioned Holy Shmoly!
Apparently Ryan Tubridy mentioned this site between 7am and 7:30am this morning. Unfortunately I only turned the radio on at 7:30 so I missed it. Thanks for the mention Ryan! (I’m psychic, that’s how I know he mentioned me, no really! No, ‘fraid not, thanks John for telling me!)
Red Hat 8.0 – man garbage
For as long as I’ve had Red Hat 8.0 installed I’ve had trouble using “man” and other marked up terminal apps. The marked up text appeared as garbage and only by careful examination could one spot the useful information trapped inside! Here’s the answer, courtesy of the Chicago LUNI list. European users may want to try another locale, and Irish users could find “en_IE@euro” most useful!
Sendmail – Masquerading And Relaying
Ah! The joys of Sendmail cf configuration. How arcane can the following get?
R$+ $@ $>93 $1
That line tells Sendmail to masquerade the headers of an email as another domain. Luckily I just generated another sendmail.cf with my install-sendmail script and did a vimdiff of both files. Comments are helpful too, and takes some of the bite out of the .cf file.
BlogShares trading on Holy Shmoly!
There’s been some trading on my Blogshares blog account. The site valuation has sky-rocketed overnight and should continue to do so as blog link here. Woo! Me’s (virtually) rich!
Top 100 April Fools
This is a great list of historical April Fools. I think Ryan Tubridy’s launch of his new book yesterday should make it onto the list somewhere. Yeah, I fell for it too.. doh!
Cross-Browser Rich Text Editor
This Text Editor is going into the next release of my b2 mod! I need to contact the author though as there’s no license information in the zip file. This is very similar to the midas editor on mozilla.org but it’s billed as cross-browser. I’m not sure if Midas will work in IE. (Thanks Padraig for the Midas link!) (via locker gnome)
ezln23: Synthetic Morpheme
One to bookmark for future reading!
Smarty : Template Engine
Yes! Finally Smarty 8.0 has been released! This release has an ASP/JSP/Java/Python/C# code interpretor and lots of other enhancements! Pity the upgrade instructions were lost when the author’s modem died. Anyone tried it?
hehe.
