The black hole…
Yesterday I was trying to automate a process using a Makefile. At first, I was mostly using Bash inside the Makefile to iterate over a lot of files and perform operations. Unfortunately, that approach does not allow us to use multiple parallel jobs, taking advantage of the multi-processor available in the machine. I decided to […]
While some of this information is accurate, I have one main issue with this configuration: with Traefik running in non swarm mode, it is unable to detect containers running on other swarm nodes. 2021 March 14 In the last weeks I’ve been deploying a set of new services in three servers. As I want to […]
First of all, please do not read this post as a complain. Just as an analysis. I am a Linux user for decades. I remember using Linux in my first year of University, somewhere about 1996. I never stopped using Linux, in the server, but during some years, somewhere between 2002 and 2017 I was […]
The traditional way to have a C# MonoGame Project compile both under Linux and Windows is to use a tool named Protobuild. With the last version (3.6), the MonoGame OpenGL template for a cross platform game includes references to the libraries in the three main formats: DLL for windows, DyLib for mac, and so for […]
After the last Apple keynote, the news on Mac Book Pro, and the exorbitant price, I took part of this Sunday to look back to Linux as a Desktop. Although I work usually on a 2011 Mac, that runs perfectly (just some bumps), I have a Lenovo laptop. So, I decided to install the Linux […]
Today I waste all my afternoon trying to solve a problem with Perl versions and DotCloud. I say I wasted the afternoon because I could not solve the issue during the afternoon, only in the beginning of the night. Enough complain, and let me explain what was going on. Yes, this post is a little […]

The next linux to test was Mandriva. I recall to use Mandrake some years ago. First point regarding Mandriva, is that I downloaded the DVD version. That means I was installing with more than 4GB of software on my DVD drive. Why that is relevant? Keep reading. The installation was easy. The interface is quite […]
I got a PC laptop for work with… Windows. Decided to install a Linux on it, and decided to give a look at current distributions. At the moment I was looking for a non-newbie system but with some basic configuration issues automated. For example, I desesperate when I need to configure a wireless manually. I […]
After some disasters with Ubuntu on my Acer Aspire One (it just stopped working, X crashing and other problems) I tried moblin again. Installed version 2.1 beta and my first impression is that it is more stable than 2.0 at the moment. The browser seems more stable, loading pages faster. Unfortunately the flash plugin is […]
