Enjoy Nerdcore?

Random, Skits August 4th, 2009

@hak5darren on Twitter sent out this link. I had to give it a listen, I love my #nerdcore. Why am I writing a blog posting using hashtags? I don’t know, I just know if you like #nerdcore like I do, check them out.

I took some screen captures while playing Left 4 Dead. I am running it via Win 1.1.25.
For more information about Wine visit their site.

I was getting fairly decent frame rates, around 22-35 depending. That was also while running the gtk-recordmydesktop screen capture application. For some reason the audio was stripped out. There is a new version of wine out, I plan to upgrade, tweak it some more and give that a try. I did have the shading turned way down just to increase FPS performance.

Video was recorded in OGV, and edited in Kdenlive

For those curious this machine is running:

AMD Phenom II Quad Core 2.2
8 GB Memory
Nvidia BFG GTX260
500 GB WD HDD

I will have more to come after trying out Wine. 1.1.26.

I had a blast at the South East Linux Fest. I will be posting several videos, and thought I’d share some footage I shot of Dual Core, an an awesome nerdcore band that was there pimping their music.

Enjoy.

I haven’t posted one of these for a while, thought I would post my desktop today…

According to the ubuntu-packaging blog, there will be a second Training session for those who missed the first one, or were confused. James Westby hosted the first training session, and the second will be hosted by Didier Roche tomorrow, April 16th, 2009 18:00 UTC. If you are interested in attending, just pop on over to IRC channel #ubuntu-classroom on irc.freenode.net.

This is great for those who are interested in learning how to package using bzr builddeb. Check out the packaging wiki session schedule for more information, or check out the fridge.
