Has 3D Gaming has finally arrived for the mass market?! I know this isn’t new technology, but it’s always been pricey, with bulky wired glasses until recently. This will be great when the price comes down and the features go up. Well anyway, without further ado:

How to install Qingy on Fedora. This will work on Fedora 8, Fedora 9, or Fedora 10. It’s all the same, so this will apply to all Fedora versions with directfb and directfb-devel in the repository. If you don’t find them in the repos, just build them from source too.

Here’s my notes from trimming a little off the top of an apache server. This was just a quick chop at the default install. I haven’t looked at how the webapps are used or how many connections or the length of time per connection or anything… I’ll go back later and tweak how many threads and processes are started and used.

After surveying a rather large g-file collection, my attention was drawn to
the fact that there hasn’t been a good introductory file written for absolute

This is how-to-Install 3D desktop effects on a vanilla Fedora 10 installation (I tried this on a freshly installed Fedora 10, installed from DVD). Basically all you need to do is get 3d hardware acceleration enabled for your video card and then install the fusion-icon package and reboot. In the past this was easier said than done.

This doesn’t look that hard to make!  Pedal powered electricity generator!  Charge your cell phone, laptop, or run a small appliance or two.  This would make a great alternative or supplement to an old gas generator.  When you lose power in a storm you know you’re not going to make …

You can take several regular pictures or other image files and put them together into one image that looks like they’re all polaroids laid out on a desk using ImageMagick’s montage tool.  If you have a dual monitor setup you can easily fit 8 across your screens at once without …
