Rails-CMDB release 0.4.2
I’ve released a new version of Rails-CMDB with some minor improvements. Details behind the cut, it can be downloaded from here.
Rails-CMDB release 0.4.1
It’s been a while since I’ve managed to do a release of Rails-CMDB. This is mainly because I got stuck working parts of the test suite and I’ve been doing things that have kept me away from a computer.
However over the last few days I’ve managed to get an import integration story working, which seems to be working. I’ve also taken the chance to migrate to Ruby on Rails 1.2.5, but there are some DEPRECATION warnings still to dealt with.
Behind the cut is the changelog. Continue reading
Pixelmator
Has anyone tried Pixelmator ? I’m wondering if it’s a worth while alternative to photo shop ?
Cool things in Leopard (and sorting keyboard issues)
I’ve finally upgraded to Leopard and so far I’m loving the following:
- Built in ssh-agent support.
- The iCal and Mail integration.
- Spaces.
- New look Finder.
- Profiles in the terminal.
- Being able to map network shares from the dock.
The things that have not improved.
- Using a real UK PC keyword is still not handled correctly (I’m had a ergonomic keyboard for years).
- There seems to be no way to change to size of unread counts in the dock (annoying for netnewswire).
I’ve also just spent what seems like an age getting my keyboard back to functioning correctly, after MacOS refused to do anything to change the keyboard type with the following error (also sometimes the change keyboard type button disappeared from the keyboard and mouse section of system preferences):
No unknown keyboard connected - terminating
The only way to fix it was to remove the following file and then reboot.
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.keyboardtype.plist
Then when re-detecting the keyboard type and selecting the map from the following page, it worked correctly with the keyboard type of ISO European.
A wander in the park
For the first time in many weeks, I made it out with the camera (and also taken some pictures). However the trip was cut a little short by my batteries running out, just after I got this photo.
Also while out I managed to lose the Eyecup, which is rather annoying as the the replacement costs around £9!
Now with added Twitter
I’ve given in and gotten an account on twitter, mainly to stalk follow some friends. Currently I’m not planning on using it much tho and as such I’ve turned on protected updates.
It’s been a while…
It’s been a while since I posted and this is mainly because I’ve been very busy with work and also trying to cut back on computer use for the last month.
Currently I’m managing to hold back on the upgrade to Leopard, however this is because some really important software is missing support and thus preventing me upgrading 
. I’m hoping that early December will give me the new shiny.
A couple of weeks ago I went to a talk at ScotRUG about StaticMatic and I’ve now ported my web site over to it from Website Meta Language. Now all that’s left is working round HAMLs handling of content within pre tags and updating the site so it looks like something created the in latter half of this decade instead of the late 90′s.
