08.01.07 (jul) - I finished the page about file access and I'm pretty happy about it. The only missing piece is an explanation of the results. The only explanation I could see is that DirectIO is not optimized as well as regular IO in the linux kernel. If you have any info about it, please share...
07.23.07 (jul) - I just updated the main page. From now on, it will show the 3 last update a made... Bobo should be happy :)
I also made a Map page which is a sort of table of content and I started writing some article about file access.
More to come...
07.11.07 (jul) - It's been a long time since I wrote anything here. Verizon sucks... and I had move this server off of my host computer. I haven't been updating this page lately, but I added some articles left and right. I'm now using the YADM menu which is pretty cool. I've been doing some cool stuff lately, I'll try to write some new articles.
01.28.07 (jul) - I made a lot of changes and added many new topics: some Oracle stuff, OpenWrt, Config file. It turns out my management system is really convenient and I hope the website will go on growing.
01.19.07 (jul) - I've been working on the website last week-end to make it more manageable for me. I think I'm pretty happy with it now, and I even started to write some document about my OpenWrt setup. General Stuff and IPv6 is done...
01.14.07 (jul) - I've been playing with QoS on my Linksys router for quite a while now. Finally it works. My roomate can't peg the internet connection anymore :) I've been doing a couple of nice things on my router recently, I think I'm going to write a webpage to briefly summarize them.
11.19.06 (jul) - I have been playing with IPv6 recently. I set it up on my Linksys WRT54G running OpenWRT and my whole network got setup just by itself. You can now access philly.astroboy.fr using IPv4 or IPv6 (you can check with one you are using on the bottom left of the screen). If you want to force your browser to use IPv6, just use the DNS philly6.astroboy.fr, which doesn't have a v4 address.
11.1.06 (jul) - I gave a talk at the Philadelphia Linux User Group about RAID and LVM on linux. You can have a look at the slides here.
10.22.06 (jul) - New page added: Linux Tricks - Computer Slang. People are using strange words like whack or bang. Check the meaning there.
10.07.06 (jul) - I changed the way I can access and update my links. It's much more convinient right now and I expect the link page to grow much faster.
I'm currently doing lots of fun stuff regarding linux, hardware architecture and such... I'm thinking of a way to put all this stuff (or at least most of it) on this website... Stay tuned...
09.17.06 (jul) - Philly.astroboy.fr is born. This website will change quite a bit in the next month or so. To start with, I posted a bashrc config script, and you can have a look at the RRD graphs monitoring my server.
Note: For the french people who know: www.astroboy.fr.
Ce site ressemble a www.astroboy.fr d'un point de vue esthetique, mais c'est tout. Il s'agit juste du site qui tourne sur mon serveur a Philly. Il contient pas mal d'info pour tout le monde donc je vais le faire en Anglais. Si vous voulez des nouvelles de ce que je fais le bon site est www.astroboy.fr.
