Still playing GTA.. And working… But I wanted to follow up on this. There is a new beta flashplayer out. Flashplayer 10. It seems that there is still no support for V4L2 but there are workarounds. And speaking of Linux and Adobe, they have released AIR for Linux as well, still alpha though.
Did I mention that I’m looking forward to the next driverupdate from Nvidia? I am! Last one is from february. The current driver underperformes a lot in 2D.
Opensource Flash?
It seems that adobe has plans to open up Flash and Air. Read more here.
Read and learn!

Netgear EVA 8000 HD
Some time ago I bought a Netgear EVA 8000 HD, it is a media player that plays multimediacontent on an USB disk or your network. I quickly realised that the firmware it was born with was bugridden and not quite ready. It is save to say that I was a bit disappointed. But mutch to my surprise I discovered that not only was I not alone in my disappointment, Netgear was developing the software for this player rather aggressively! The first update fixed a LOT of bugs and I have become a betatester for Netgears developmentbranch of the software and they ship a new betafirmware approximately once a a week.
It is turning out to be an interesting, rather than disappointing, piece of hardware 🙂
EDIT:
I completely forgot to mention that it runs Linux!

From the Don’t Panic department.
It seems infocom had a second shot in the gun, just never quite made it, a shame!
Done!

I think this post is a bit overdue.
A couple of weeks ago I noticed a new folder in my home folder. It spooked me a bit to begin with (debian-user list). But I soon discovered that the folder only appeared when I was using my internet bank solution (A BEC webbanking solution). I gave their support a call and surely, it was a part of something they called PC-DNA. They agreed with me in that it probably wasn’t the nicest bit of code they had ever produced and told me that they might do it differently in the next update.
So, if you suffer from this, give your bank a call, who knows, if enough of us makes a fuss, they might change it.
