I’m using Slim for a few months and I’m very happy with it. It’s simple, do what does it have to do and it’s light. But I wanted to customize it to give a look similar to my Awesome theme.
That’s why I’ve took Gimp and modified a theme I liked. You can see the result :-)
You can find my configuration here and modify it if you want :-)
I recently gave a training on MariaDB/MySQL regarding performances tuning and High Availability. You can find here the slides I’ve made for it (french).
Some subjects related in that document are replication master -> slave, master < -> master and Galera Cluster. You can download the PDF here or see it directly on SlideShare :
I hope this will help some of you to get a better understanding on some advanced features.
Selfoss is a self-hosted RSS reader solution. It could be compared to Tiny Tiny RSS or Feedly.
I liked to test that nice solution. But I’m still staying with Fever, as there is no Android version working with Selfoss (only an old one exist, but doesn’t work) and the web interface is a little bit slow (compared to Fever). I hope this will be better in a short term as this is the most elegant Open Source version I’ve tested for now.
I’m very happy of Mozilla Sync service and trust more in Mozilla foundation than Google for my datas. Anyway there is a thing that I don’t like : sharing my passwords into the cloud !

I recently talked about my new keyboard and the output sound directly on the keyboard. That’s a great thing, but depending on your distribution and the desktop you’ve installed, it may not work out of the box.
That’s why I’ve written a documentation to make it work.
In addition, I’ve modified my awesome configuration to get special music keys to work like a charm :-)
Integrit is a simple yet secure alternative to products like tripwire. It has a small memory footprint, uses up-to-date cryptographic algorithms, and has features that make sense (like including the MD5 checksum of newly generated databases in the report.
You may already now the alternatives on OpenBSD or RedHat. So now let’s play with Debian :-)
