Just downloaded and tried out Firefox 4 Beta.
First impression: FASTER!

I didn’t expect to see such a noticeable snappiness to it. Nice work Mozilla.

Nushus Screenshots

Wednesday, June 30th, 2010


I got some feedback yesterday that suggested the Nushus Fedorahosted.org page could mistakenly depict the application as CLI only. The feedback also suggested that some screenshots would be a welcome addition to the trac site and would help remedy this mis-perception.

So here the are: some nushus screenshots

MOTOROKR S9-HD + Fedora 13 in A2DP

Thursday, June 3rd, 2010

***UPDATE***: See the comments, turns out there is capability in F13 to do this that I was unaware of, thx marcanoonline.com!

Got a pair of MotoRokr S9-HD headphones today, pretty cool. Pairing with my iPhone was cake. Pairing with Fedora 13 had an extra couple steps. Getting the headphones paired was not the problem, huge props to Fedora 13 for making that super easy. The issue was getting the headphone to operate in an A2DP configuration.

There is not a place that I could find to select what kind of profile to use with with output device and the device was assigned a mono configuration upon initial pairing. I found one lone post related: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=223323

$ sudo yum install pavucontrol


pavucontrol shows the headphones configured for uses as a handsfree phone device (which it can do):


Fedora already had A2DP support installed, just had to select it:

Now I have stereo output on my shiny new headphones.

Nushus 0.12.2

Monday, April 26th, 2010

Just uploaded a tarball of Nushus 0.12.2 to the Nushus fedora hosted site.

Docs and tickets are still being transferred out to the fedora hosted trac site.

Nushus (pronounced new shoes) is a package and file repo release management tool. It has a web interface and cli client to aid in isolating in and promoting packages through a release engineering process.

Right now you can import two types of files:

  1. rpms with auto generation of yum metadata, acls management and promotion to other nushus instances on a per-repo basis
  2. simple files with acls managment and promotion to other nushus instances on a per-repo basis

An instance of Nushus can be established in multiple environments. (ex: QA, Stage, Prod) The instances are then configured to talk to one another so that they can transfer files from environment to environment.
