Bug Pada Tab Mix Plus

Ini memang bug, bukan silly bug :D

Extension Tab Mix Plus yang saya pasang pada Firefox 1.5.0.7 ngadat. Fitur yang menarik pada extension tersebut adalah reorganisasi tab. Urutan tab yang telah terbuka dapat diatur dengan mudah melalui drag and drop. Tapi beberapa hari terakhir ini, penggeseran tab tidak selalu mulus. Bahkan yang lebih parah, beberapa tab yang ingin saya geser posisinya, tidak hanya bandel tak mau bergeser, tapi juga sangat bandel, tak mau di-close :(

Repotnya, saya belum tahu cara agar bug tersebut reproducible.

Just Another Silly 'Bug'

Hwarakadah. Apakah ini bug? Saat ini icon Firefox di Debian bukanlah 'bola rubah api', tapi 'bola dunia biru'. Perbedaan yang kelihatannya sepele seperti ini menjadi berlarut-larut:

Mozilla says its guidelines are clear: the use of the Firefox name is permitted only if accompanied by its logo, icons, and other artwork.
padahal
Mozilla's graphics set cannot be released with Etch because "they have a non-free license."

Statistik Trafik Berdasarkan PID

Posting dari Irfan Habib di LKML berikut melontarkan pertanyaan yang menarik:

Is there any method either kernel or user level which tells me which process is generating how much traffic from a machine. For example if some process is flooding the network, then I would like to know which process (PID ideally), is generating the most traffic.
yang dijawab oleh Jose R. Santos:
A while ago I did a SystemTap script to solve a problem similar to this. It's been siting in my system for a while collecting dust and you currently don't need the embedded C code since the networking.stp tapset has all this script needs(and more), but I should point you in the right direction.
Ternyata ada barang yang bernama SystemTap. Perlu dicoba build di Debian.

Rupanya ada yang memperbandingkan SystemTap (di Linux) vs DTrace (di Solaris) lebih dari setahun yang lalu! Wow, rupanya saya ketinggalan jaman lagi.

You're a classic - powerful, athletic, and competitive. You're all about winning the race and getting the job done. While you have a practical everyday side, you get wild when anyone pushes your pedal. You hate to lose, but you hardly ever do.


Take the Which Sports Car Are You? quiz.
