Linux Razer Naga Driver
I’ve been looking around awhile for a “driver” to quickly change keymappings on my SWTOR Gaming Mouse (which is actually just a Razer Naga with a special look), without having to muck about with X configuration settings. Never really found anything very satisfying. So I finally decided to just hack up the nostromo_n50 configuration tool…

I need to update my BLP importer extension
I was searching for Gimp BLP using google again. And I saw that my plugin was listed under “The GIMP non-Free extensions” originally posted in a blog article. The reason given: “Some relevant files do not have a license note”. Apparently I wasn’t strict enough with adding the GPL headers to my sources. Oops. I’ll have…

kc rpg
I found the source code for a tiny game my friend made a long time ago when he was a brand new programmer. I was searching for anything about my old highschool website (the now defunct ais.cms.k12.nm.us). And noticed that kc had posted some programs online with links back to his homepage on that server.…

WordPressilized
After a bit of work (about 4 hours) I’ve got my old blog entries imported into a wordpress database. I did it all manually through phpmyadmin. I could have also written a custom importer plugin. But since it’s a one time thing, it would have been a bit silly. I’m sure I made some minor…

Patching linux to play WoW

Greetings from Taiwan
So everybody keeps asking me to update my blog. So I guess I’ll finally do it. I’m sitting in the passenger seat of Shao-ling’s family car using my phone to write this entry, so please excuse any typos. Anyway a lot has happened since many of you last heard from me I have been living…

dead computer
A few weeks ago, the power supply on my desktop computer went out. A capacitor on the inside exploded while I was away. I bought a new power supply to replace the dead one and my computer ran fine until just a few days ago. When I came home on Wednesday, my desktop was dead…

BLP importer
Last week I spent all my spare time writing a BLP importer plugin for the GIMP. BLP for those who don’t know is Blizzard’s texture file format. I was working on my JukeBox WoW addon and I wanted to add a play/stop buttons. But I haven’t been able to open up the BLP files with…

Engage
Halloween was pretty fun. I didn’t do anything except work and play computer, but I did dress up in costume for work. I bought a star trek TNG shirt and and some rank insignia’s. I used black hairspray for darker hair and beard. I bought a toy tricorder, and a model phaser. Only one other…
