Stuff Michael Meeks is doing

This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit
Collabora
Productivity a subsidiary of Collabora focusing on LibreOffice support and
services for whom I work.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.
Failing that, there are all manner of interesting things to read on
the LibreOffice Planet news
feed.

Prodded at the CUPS deadlock provoked by trying to print a
set of mendel assembly drawings: fun. It seems ghostscript and some
other process (magically renamed to the queue name) are both doing
blocking writes at each other (with full socket buffers): clever.
CUPS never ceases to amaze me.
-
Pulled all the latest SP1 test packages, to test the
latest fixes. Read about yet more linux kernel tracing / event
logging schemes. Amused to see that mmiotrace was created just
for Nouveau.
-
Read up on lttng, and some of the code - looks like
something rather sexy (except, that is) that apparently I need
to load some module, and then link a library - all to extract
some simple, low-frequency string data from 'open' syscalls;
seems like a non-starter.
-
Out for cell-group in the evening - a social dinner, fine
food, some Wii playing action etc. good fun, bed late.
My content in this blog and associated images / data under
images/
and data/
directories are (usually)
created by me and (unless obviously labelled otherwise) are licensed under
the public domain, and/or if that doesn't float your boat a CC0
license. I encourage linking back (of course) to help people decide for
themselves, in context, in the battle for ideas, and I love fixes /
improvements / corrections by private mail.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Collabora, SUSE,
Novell, The Document Foundation, Spaghetti Hurlers (International),
or anyone else.
It's also important to realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences
or fun.
