We students often loose track of time, yes completely, we even sometimes forget what day it is, so I have found a new way to find out. Being also a stats junky I regularly check my page views on this blog, and guess what, I can see what day it!
Notice the (highlighted) days in the stats? That’s weekend, so I could also have stayed in bed 
Other (not so) intelligent alternatives to calendars?
A few days ago Zattoo updated their client, and guess what, it didn’t work on Linux anymore. Using the error messages I was able to guess which libraries were missing: I had to install the xulrunner (it looks like they use the Mozilla API to display the channel browser).
But when trying to run the client I got still more errors, the problem is that Zattoo uses some strange library name convention, so we have to create the links to the actual libraries, so we have to run the following as root:
cd /usr/lib/
ln -s xulrunner-1.8.1b2/libgtkembedmoz.so libgtkembedmoz.so.0d
ln -s xulrunner-1.8.1b2/libxpcom.so libxpcom.so.0d
ln -s xulrunner-1.8.1b2/libmozjs.so libmozjs.so.0d
ln -s libplds4.so libplds4.so.0d
ln -s libplc4.so libplc4.so.0d
ln -s libnspr4.so libnspr4.so.0d
ln -s xulrunner-1.8.1b2/libxul.so libxul.so.0d
As soon as I can I will switch away from dynamic-net.ch (sorry guys but crappy support and service always comes back).
Being a long time Apple hater (not Apple’s fault, it’s the users that I find too elitarian), so this is not easy for me, but I love the iPhone. And this Ad is not helping either, I’m even considering buying a MacBook as my next Notebook.
