In the future I will combine both knowledge bases, but for now they are separated - please look also at the other knowledge base under www.kwilium.at

http://www.linux-tux.at/index.php?entry=entry091203-134731
today I got my new mobile phone, the HTC Tattoo. It's the first of mine with Android OS on it. The phone is so amazing, all application what you need by default is on the device and if there is one app missing, just go into the market place for installing the missing app.
Also the sync with my calendars, contacts and mails on Google servers and private servers are working very very fast.
The A-GPS antenna works great too, I tried the navigation software AndNav2. In this app you also can download the map tiles what you want and not the whole earth or continents.
Till now I am very surprised about this device! I hope that won't be gone...]]>SiS 771/671 Video Drivers and Ubuntu 9.10

http://www.linux-tux.at/index.php?entry=entry090918-105023
There are multiple applications but I tried the SysCP[1] online Demo[2]. This was exactly that what I wanted to have! So I downloaded it and installed it on a virtual machine.
The default configuration works fine on a Linux Debian 5.0 Lenny[3] www.debian.org. I had to investigate more time to setup the exim4[4] www.exim.org with mysql support, greylisting[5] www.tldp.org and antispam with spamassassin[6].
But now, all this stuff is running really fine and I need only 5 minutes to add a new customer with the full program :-).
Currently there is just a business card but in the future there will be a small new site with some informations about the artist, Manfred Merl.

http://www.linux-tux.at/index.php?entry=entry090720-175858
It tooks time to bring me on a palm but now I am on it. I ordered a lot of stuff from this shop in the passt (sound systems, notebooks, wireless stuff, and so on) and I had my troubles with this shop, but I was a good man forgot this stupid things and gave them a new chance.
Piss off, nothing changed! :-|
Here are my stories for you to know what a shop this is...
-Notebooks I ordered 2 notebooks and they were exactly the same. Both of them had also the same failure - pixel failure (only 3 -> this was too less for a warranty exchange - "what a shit conclusion"). Ok I said to me that I will try to get the best for these notebooks and sent one of them to Vienna in the headquarter for the repair and one to the location near by me. So, then the best thing ever cames. The notebook, what I sent to Vienna, was back after 3 weeks whitout any failures and it was a warranty exchange. The other notebook, tooks 6 weeks to came back and there were no exchange. They, office stuff, said that there were too less failures. Ok, I thought ... (something very dirty things :-)) and sent the notebook also to the Headquarter. What do you think did they do? Nothing, but the case of the Screen was scratched! I couldn't believe my eyes. Now I was really angry and called the headquarter and I was very unfriendly on the phone, but that was my right. They changed the case, after I sent it back again to them in Vienna and wait again 5 weeks for the notebook. That wasn't all. They forgot the external power supply for the notebook. So I called them again and asked what a problem did they have? So I had the same power supply at home and used this one but this was a great story!
-PCI-X Controller The next stuff what I ordered was a PCI-X SATA II Controller for a server. In case it wasn't storing in the location, they ordered it for me and informed me after 2 days that this hardware is there. I was happy to get this thing, because I needed it really urgent for the VMware ESXi server. When I was at the shop to pick up the hardware, I got the information from an assistant, that this is not storing. I thought I was in a dream, but no, that was true.
So for me this shop already died. And anyone what will order there something, forget it. Use other shops in the near by you. They are much better in this things and sometimes also in informing you about computers!]]>Error: The session is not authenticated

After some trouble shoot I found out that there are too many vmware-converter processes running in the system. I killed all of them and started the Converter again.
Now it worked great!]]>HowTo: Convert VMs from VMware Server to ESXi
http://www.linux-tux.at/index.php?entry=entry090718-112750
I had to try 2 ways bacause the VMware Converter ColdClone CD won't worked for me so I installed on a Windows VM the VMware vCenter Converter Standalone as server and client. Now I was able to convert all the VMs (in active mode) on my VMware Server to the ESXi over network (via ssh) automatically.
