		<description><![CDATA[While roksbox will recurse your web server and display your media for streaming you also have the option of pointing the application to an XML file which better describes your videos. This results in a superior interface where poster artwork can be displayed as well as descriptive information such as: title, description, actors, mpaa rating, etc.

The generation of these XML files is supported through GUI tools available for Windows O/S,  or through an online tool located here, but there didn't seem to be a convenient GUI method for creating or editing these XML files in Linux. This was the inspiration for proks]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Most modern filesystems allow you to create virtual disk files without pre-allocating disk space. These virtual disks grow in size as the space is needed. The default virtual disk image type in KVM/QEMU is a sparse "raw" disk image which consumes real disk space as files are added. Interestingly, when files are deleted the virtual disk does not shrink. This makes sense as deleting files from a filesystem doesn't typically erase the data but only the reference to where the data is stored on the disk. What follows is a recipe to reclaim this disk space.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Not too long ago VMware has a product called "VMware Server" which originally came with a dedicated management application. Later VMware threw out the console and created a web interface for VMware Server. Not long after that they completely threw VMware Server away in favor of their new enterprise software solution(s) ESX/ESXi/vCenter/vSphere/etc. For the new(ish) VMware Workstation 8 one of the most notable features is the "Shared VMs" which is more or less a reawakening of  their original VMware Server application functionality. With this feature you can once again set VMs to run in the background, autostart, and access via network. However a problem arises with the installation on systems which use insserv. Read on and I'll explain the problem and show you how to fix it. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Continuing on with this project it became necessary to look a little deeper on how apt based software repositories handle version numbers. At first I thought this was the silliest overly complicated mess I could imaging. For instance, how does one compare package versions that look like this '2:1.0~rc3++svn20100804-0.2squeeze1' with versions that look like this '2:1.0~rc3++final.dfsg1-1' to determine which is newer? Luckily this is actually well documented, makes perfect sense when you stop to think about it, and (through the power of open source) easy to accomplish programatically.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I happen to use quit a diversity of VMware products both for personal use and work. On my work laptop I have been using VMware Workstation now for a few years. When working with ESX(i) or VMware virtualization technologies in general I used to love some of the great lesser documented utilities which comes with Workstation. Two utilities that I have used rather extensively were vmware-mount and vmware-vdiskmanager. After upgrading to the latest VMware Worstation v8 I was super impressed with some of the great new features. However, when trying to convert a virtual disk (vmdk) using vmware-vdiskmanager I was awfully disappointed to see some functionality left out on this version.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I wrote earlier about rsync backups and the strategies used in the backintime software. Having gotten a bit of time to work with it I hope to outline a method to do "snapshot" style backups using rsync. This gives us the ability to quickly and easily "roll-back" to a previous date and time. Additionally the management of our backups gets vastly simplified and this also saves a ton of space for an extra bonus!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This year I came into possession  of a new MacBook 8,1 laptop. Not my personal choice in hardware platforms but after some research it was actually a good value for the hardware. Of course the first thing I did was to attempt and install Linux. Unfortunately the newer hardware made it rather impossible to install the stable version of Debian Linux. With some tinkering I was able to get Debian Unstable (Sid) running but a few weeks ago Debian Sid switched to Gnome-Shell (gnome3). Avoiding the new Gnome desktop environment I re-installed my O/S this time using Debian Testing (Wheezy.) Sure enough a few weeks later Wheezy was pushed the updated Gnome from Sid and I found myself in a real pickle. I spent an entire evening installing and tweaking to get Debain Stable (Squeeze) working. In the end I was very successful. This article contains the steps necessary in getting this running.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In recent weeks I have been checking out some really great games for Linux via the <a href="http://www.humblebundle.com/" target="_blank">Humble Bundle.</a> While running <a href="http://www.steel-storm.com/" target="_blank">Steel Storm</a> with Composting on, I would get some lockups and general issues. I've always had issues with UT 2004 as it would not correctly grab my mouse in the game menu making it difficult to navigate unless I turned off Desktop effects. That was in my Ubuntu days and Compiz provided a switch to toggle the effects. Now that I have moved to Debian, I am using Metacity as my composting manager and require a similar switch...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For years I have been using Rsync to backup my files on my Linux desktop and server. Looking at how easy and automated this solution is I decided to try to find a similar solution for my Android phone. Originally I accomplished the task using a PULL method, that is my Linux box would initiate an rsync script that would pull the data from the phone to the server. I used a popular ssh server for Android which ran as a service so that the client on the Linux Box could connect to the phone. This method worked quite well except it could only be used inside my home network. When on mobile, Verizon uses an “Internal” type IP address thus making it impossible to initiate an outside connection. A dynamic IP is also an issue. In order to get around these limitations I decided to use a push method initiated from the phone. This would allow a backup to occur anywhere either on wifi or mobile.]]></description>
