I recently wrote about the Linux swap device and what it’s used for. This tutorial covers the basics of actually managing the swap devices and/or files on your system. Topics covered include how to enable and disable swap, how to create (and remove) additional swap space, and how to measure swap usage.

This article proposes a new way to construct Linux€® and Windows€® images for private clouds built with the OpenStack cloud operating system.

I use ssh everyday and it’s my main tool to connect and manage servers, so I’m always interested in articles about ssh.

In part 5 of this Gtkmm tutorial I will be showing you how to use the treeview control and markup in a label. In this simple application there is a text entry used for entering text into a treeview. The label next to the text entry will turn red if there is no text entered in the text entry when the button is pressed.

The battery recently died in my old Asus Netbook which gave me some fire to finally get together a functional filesystem for the Samsung Chromebook I've had for a little over a year. I published a rough file system with install instructions here last December. Since then a few things have changed in the structure of ChromeOS and the install script/file systems needed some updates.

I had the pleasure of meeting Russell Pavlicek, who shares Xen community management responsibilities with Lars Kurth, at SUSECon last November and he, along with Dario Faggioli of the Xen community, poked me about writing a blog post describing the state of Xen support in libvirt. I found this to be an excellent idea and good reason to get off my butt and write! Far too much time passes between my musings.
