Please note that I received some reports from people that tried to flash their RK3066 stuff – but it would not boot afterwards. And in fact, that’s what I experienced when I tried to flash my Minix Neo X5. (more…)
I just bought a Cube U30GT Android tablet, based on the Rockchip RK3066 ARM chipset. Here are the instructions to root it under Linux. (more…)
There are many programs that help you secure your servers. There are simple firewalling programs and there are complex network intrusion detection systems. Depending on your demands, there seems to be a solution for everyone. Unless you’re picky and you think you can do better – like I did, when I wrote my own combination of syslog-ng and Linux iptables, skipping the middle man.
Het Centraal Bureau voor de Statistiek doet zijn onderzoekjes anno 2010 nog steeds met een Windows-programma: u moet Microsoft Windows gebruiken om de door het CBS gevraagde gegevens te verzenden.

Vandaag is er veel te doen over de hack die beschreven staat op www.ov-chipkaart.org. Wat nog even ontbreekt, is de methode om echt ondetecteerbaar gratis te reizen: de perfecte misdaad. (more…)
In part one we built a kernel module and put it somewhere in the filesystem. In this part, we’re going to tell the inputattach utility what to do with it.
A couple of months ago, I bought a Walkera Dragonfly #04, just for fun. While actually flying an RC helicopter is great fun, sometimes you will want to use a simulator. As Linux is my platform of choice, I tried using the Walkera transmitter with a serial cable to run a heli-sim. I found out how to do that; here’s the results of my quest. This article will be split in 3 parts: kernel; utility; Heli-X. This is the first part.
I will use Ubuntu Linux 8.04 Hardy Heron for my explanation. You can use other versions of Linux – but please beware, you will need a pretty recent kernel to be able to build the kernel module.
