FreeBSD binaries upgrade with pkgng

23 June 2013 in FreeBSD, Hi-Tech

I’ve recently played with pkgin under NetBSD and searched to make it work under FreeBSD. Anyway it’s not really compatible. I saw old unmaintained version, but no one worked for me as expected :-(. After a few searches, I found pkg2ng :-). That’s THE tool for FreeBSD. But unfortunately, as written in the wiki : As a consequence of the security incident on 11th November 2012, for the time being pre-compiled packages for pkgng are not available from any official FreeBSD repository.

MariaDB/MySQL slides for HA and performances tuning

21 June 2013 in Databases, Debian, Hi-Tech, Linux

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 : An elegant RSS reader

19 June 2013 in Android, Debian, Hi-Tech, Linux, Web

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.

Beamer : play with LateX presentations

17 June 2013 in Hi-Tech

Beamer is a stable solution to make beautiful presentations with LateX. I recently used it and it’s amazing. It’s the power of LateX with elegant presentations. The first time I saw it, was at FOSDEM this year (2013) and was surprised by the presentation quality. Handling is a little bit long at first, but once done, you don’t need to think of what your slides should look and only need to concentrate on the content.

Linagora : my last month

13 June 2013 in Others, Private life

This is my last month in Linagora. I enjoyed working with people as skilled as this, as friendly and I’ll miss them. I There I discovered events like Meetups or FOSDEM and understood a lot of things regarding open sources communities. Well, now my new job will start on 3rd of July. I’ll keep you up to date when I’ll start it and tell you where I’m going to work :-)

iOS 7 : oh men ! So many features already available on Android

11 June 2013 in Hi-Tech, iPhone

I’m so happy on Android now. That’s right that graphic quality on standard iOS applications are better finished and ergonomic is better. Anyway even with new interface and features on iOS 7, there are still remaining work in comparison of Android. And what about new Apple features ?… Not really relevant one :-( I’ll test it later on my iPad but I’m still frustrated even if it’s better than the latests keynotes.
