Gtk2::GLext install

Ok, I wanted to have
gtkglext
gtkglextmm
Gtk2::GLext all installed.
let us get latest one of them all
first two use
./configure --prefix=/usr
to get to right debian locations
then for the last guy
need to edit Makefile.PL
to move line
mkdir 'build', 0777;
above the line for the pod that enables compilation
got 2 errors
unrecognized argument in LIBS ignored: '-Wl, --export-dynamic'
unrecognized argument in LIBS ignored: '-pthread'
then did make
make test
make install

mac os upgrade dual boot setup

Ok I have a dual boot mac g4. i wanted to upgrade to leopard
so i noted that the hard drive partition setup is
/dev/hda1 Apple_partition_map
/dev/hda2 bootstrap yaboot
/dev/hda3 swap
/dev/hda4 Linux / 15.6G
/dev/hda5 Mac OsX 11.8G


so then i booted into new leopard installer disk, wiped out old Tiger, reinstalled from scratch to mac partition
then i did
power on
hold down apple,option, o,f buttons (yes 4 buttons)
then at > prompt type
>boot hd:2,yaboot

here 2 is /dev/hda2 ie yaboot bootstrap partion
then type
>Linux
then

Login to linux system
run as root
fdisk -l
and look to what the macosx partition is

ON my system it changed from /dev/hda5 to /dev/hda6!!! with the new install, wasting a good 120M of space on the drive...

Then edit /etc/yaboot.conf to set
macosx=/dev/hda6 or whatever

then as root run
ybin
this will reinitialize the boot sector to boot to yaboot and
choose Linux as default or Leopard.

Then install OsiriX to MacOsX partition :)

ecb and semantic-cache files

i may want to get rid of ecb, but while it is on my system:

Emacs and semantic.cache

How can i prevent contaminating each directory with a file semantic-cache?
Set semanticdb-default-save-directory to a directory, by putting the following in your emacs init file (usually .emacs in your home directory):

(setq semanticdb-default-save-directory “~/.semantic”)
(replace ~/.semantic with a different directory, if you wish.)

From http://ecb.sourceforge.net/docs/FAQ.html

browse over ssh

ssh -ND 8080 you@yourserver.com
sign in
then set up firefox to use socks host : localhost 8080
and you are done.

need to also set up

Set your proxy server to resolve DNS requests instead of your computer; in Firefox's about:config area, set network.proxy.socks_remote_dns = true.

then you cant be traced by your dns queries.....

emacs commands

1. how to turn on syntax hylighting

M-X font-lock-mode

2. how to indent code?

C-M-\


3. how to comment out code in region? select region then
M-x comment-region
M-x uncomment-region

4. comment on line
M- ; (ie alt-; or esc then ;) creates a comment on the line
M-j then creates another comment line
remove comment on line ??



4. To move the cursor to a specific line:
M-x goto-line
when prompted in the minibuffer
Goto line:
