May24 Little fix

I usually receive loads and loads of spam whenever I have been using WordPress. But lately amount of spam has been zero. :D Nice but it made me little suspicious too… and it was no wonder I didn’t get spam, you couldn’t even sent normal comments. Anyway it is fixed now. ;)

May22 Turquoise Grass -theme

Eeh yeah I thought I’d test at the same time nice new plugin (Shiny Screenshots) I found for Gimp – seems to work. :) Anyway in other news I created theme for Pekwm. This was my first Pekwm theme and it was little more difficult than I expected but I’m quite happy with the result. Whole thing looks best with Turquoise Grass gtk theme and because I mostly use Openbox, I have created also an Openbox theme.

Feedback is welcomed. :)

May17 CD/DVD Drive and Anger Management

I’m complaining… and this rant probably has nothing to do with Linux, it’s probably just hardware related. I own Compaq Evo that has CD/DVD drive, more precisely LG‘s HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4320B. And it reads most of the CDs, even the older ones that my laptop’s drive didn’t read. But it doesn’t read DVDs nor certain CDs. It makes stupid exception with Depeche Mode‘s remastered collectors editions that include CD+DVD (2006), but it has no problems reading remastered collectors edition that includes only the CD. Only difference I have noticed between these CDs is the colour. Other one is silvery and other one is bit goldish.

…Well actually, I think I just realised what is the problem. Some Great Reward is normal CD and Volator and Playing the Angel are SACDs so I guess What’s the point of this SACD anyway, I don’t want bells and whistles, I just want to listen to good music. That doesn’t really explain why damn drive doesn’t play DVDs though.
