Another release to talk about. As promised, libview 0.5.5 was released. It’s mainly a bug fix release with a couple of API additions. The highlights are as follows:
Release Notes:

Fixed a bug in UIGroup where Merge wouldn’t call Unmerge if the group was already merged.
Fixed a bug where deactivating the AutoDrawer while it was moving would [...]

It’s official. We’ve released VMware Workstation 5.5. I could go on and on about how cool a release it is, but instead I’ll provide a short, non-comprehensive list of the changes:

64-bit guest support (on 64-bit hosts)
Experimental support for Virtual SMP (make some use of that HT-enabled processor!)
Much improved USB support.
Improved support for bridging to a [...]

Wow. Today (Sunday, Nov. 27th) is Jamie and my one year anniversary. How time flies. It doesn’t feel like more than a few months ago that we met and nervously started going out. Unfortunately, I spent the day travelling back home (I was visiting for Thanksgiving), but we had a nice lunch and dinner yesterday, [...]

I was cuddling up with my girlfriend tonight and we decided to look up some info on the net that we were talking about. The problem was that my laptop was inconveniently out of reach, and would require us to go outside into the cold and leave the nice warm room. It was then that [...]

My old server, which I’ve slowly been moving away from over the past few months, was hacked just a couple of days ago. I found this out tonight and though I think I’ve cleaned it, I have been busy moving the final things to my Linode box, namely mail and one website owned by my [...]

It’s funny how a simple concept ends up just exploding in a short amount of time and becomes the new craze. One example of this is “tagging.” Tagging was something I’ve wanted for years but never really thought of it as being something that everyone would be getting all excited over. However, now that a [...]

I’ve finally moved chipx86.com, my blog, and my gallery to my linode server from a fairly slow and now saturated DSL connection back home that my whole family uses. The main move happened last night, though today I realized I forgot my blog. Oops. I took the opportunity to install WordPress instead of Movable Type, [...]

I read this blog entry from a hard-working former Gaim developer today. It’s sad, yet so familiar…
I’ve been holding back this blog entry for a long time, but given that I’m not the only one who has been mistreated, now might be a good time to describe what happened to me in what used to [...]

I just put out a release of libsexy 0.1.4 tonight. It’s a bugfix release that fixes some UTF-8 problems in SexySpellEntry, and also a compile issue some people have had regarding sexy-marshal.h.
Also, libsexy now has a webpage set up! Woot! About time, really. A little directory containing tarballs and a few blog entries just wasn’t [...]

Hard Day in GNOME
All day long, people have been talking on IRC about the Novell lay-offs. It’s been sad to see, and as hard as it was for the people who were let go, I’m sure it was just as hard for those that had to let people go. My condolences to everyone who’s been [...]
