  • Selling: Guruplug Display

    I’m selling my Guruplug Display as it’s underperforming for what I want it to be doing. The 720p resolution doesn’t cut it, and it’s generally too slow and unstable to be used in a professional environment (although, I guess, at home it’d be fine). It’s been flashed with Debian Squeeze and has some iRail specific…

  • Connect different LANs over openVPN

    I now own three Raspberry Pi’s. Using two of them (and my Guruplug as WiFi AP) I connected my new apartment with my old house (= parents) over VPN. This way I can access the printers/scanners and NAS at home. The 2 rPI’s are used as router (using a Macbook Air USB-to-Ethernet adapter as 2nd…

  • Shell(s) for my Great Firewall Checker

    As my last shell has been disconnected in China (not because I was probing websites, but because the building the Guruplug was in got closed) I’m looking for shells. Linux or Unix.

  • sudo: must be setuid root

    Got this error on my Guruplug Display after messing with it. Neither was I able to use su, or any other important command. After many chmods, chowns, and cursing — check your mount (in /etc/fstab) options… 😉 Be sure / is not mounted with nosetuid Reboot and enjoy!  

  • Great Firewall checker

    An attempt to create a list of major blocked sites in China (or any other country/ISP). It’s written entirely in Bash. Github repo riiiiiiight here. It’s used by my PAC-generator. The Github page is updated once a day by three hosts. One in Belgium, one in The Netherlands, and a Guruplug in China. This way…
