More Vista networking woes

My Vista 64 laptop has suddenly decided to not use anonymous logins for shared folders and remote printers. I assume its an improvement from windows update, or maybe my anti-virus products. I have commented, on my Vista and Networking and hope to find an answer. If you have any ideas, let me know at my friendfeed.

Neverwinter Nights

Last weekend, I played some Neverwinternights (V1) and finished my first run through Witch's Wake as a Cleric of Tempus and my second run through SoU, in which I played as fighter/thief travelling with Misha Waymeet. I wish I hadn't played Witch's Wake which I have reviewed on this bliki, but I am on to Shadohaunt (sic) with my adventurer from Udrentide.

Off on holiday

Off on holiday early tomorrow morning, sailing in the Ionian Sea. I have my phone and ipodtouch with me so I am not totally out of touch. I shall be reading my tweets, at least those of you who I subscribe to on the SMS; Vodafone have a great service in Greece, maybe even better than where I live.

Follow my adventures on http://friendfeed.com/davelevy , I am taking my cameras with me so lots of pictures, maybe even some video.

Ubuntu, Java and Snipsnap

Struggling to bring up a snipsnap instance on an Ubuntu Virtual Box VM. I have returned to the Synaptic Package Manager and am installing the Java JDK, Groovy and Velocity, not that I need velocity but its fun. I have also included the javadb for good effect as well.

Diablo

Did a little bit of tinkering with my multi-player Diablo configuration. It seems the game guest can be a dhcp client for tcp/ip game.

Waking up the Garden

I actually got out into the garden over the weekend, and cut out the dead Rosemary branches, among other things. My Gardening page here, has some links and suggests its pest related.

Plazes and SMS

Still having problems using the SMS interface, so I re-bugged it on Getsatisfaction. Shame, I like the service.

More about snipsnap themes

I have amended the current page.css to include a width and margins: auto; rule. This means that the aspect ratio of the page stays fixed independently of the browser window size. The .css files are held as children of

• ./SnipSnap/themes/${themename}/css

and the css snip holds the import statements.

Some great reds

Just added Tesco's Napa Merlot 2005 and Incyon Estate Cab Sauv to my Red Wine page. I enjoyed them, you might too.

On the way to Green Robot V2

I have amended the SnipSnap page.css file, by editing the disk image; I couldn't find the snip. I am planning to make a new theme and make these changes in the snip so it can be exported. I now have a fixed width, but I need to centre align the page so it has equal sized margins.
