Multimedia Remotes support

After the Fedora QA day, working on gnome-lirc-properties and LIRC itself for the new Fedora 10 feature, fixing bugs with Sir Jarod Wilson at the testing, I did a release of gnome-lirc-properties.

The great thing to come out of it was a troubleshooting guide.

So if you had any problems using LIRC, or gnome-lirc-properties in the past, I would advise you to get the latest Fedora Rawhide (an updated Fedora 10 beta will do), and go through the guide!

Fast YouTube Fast

Thanks to Edward and Tim, who fixed a few locking and threading problems in the Python support for Totem, the YouTube plugin is now faster and doesn't lock up the UI when receiving results.


Fetch it in Totem 2.24.2.

FIFA '09 clubbing

If you're playing FIFA '09 on the PS3, join the club! It's called "FreeFA", the shortname is "FFA".

Pants on fire!

Whoever told me that I could probably find dsd at Plumbers was awfully wrong.

Flying in the mofo all over this b*tch

Landed in Portland for Plumbers.

Why on earth does Delta give personal video systems for internal flights, when the 9-hour translatlantic flight I was on only had the communal screen? And why would one want to pay $6 to watch a single film when a personal screen is available. It's like an American Ryanair.

Where's the mofo?

Living on the edge

If you want to try out the new BlueZ 4 code, and D-Bus API, come to try the upcoming Fedora 10 Beta (coming Tuesday a week). We have BlueZ 4.x and updated obex-data-server, and gvfs working with the new APIs.

gnome-user-share and nautilus-sendto are upcoming as well.

It also allows you to test the PulseAudio Bluetooth integration, if you're feeling particularly adventurous.

A step closer to World Domination

Same as. But more times.
