Pidgin plugin – Keep status message on idle

Noticed that when you’re online and you have a status message, and when your account goes idle, it switches to ‘away’ and either (1) erases your status message, or (2) puts “I’m not here currently” or something along those lines? Here’s the fix (hopefully)!

Pidgin plugin – Left conversation notifications

If you’ve been irritated that pidgin always sends those pesky ‘left conversation’ notifications to your buddies (e.g. they complain that you abandoned them when you closed your chat window), this plugin may solve your problem.

Website notice

In addition to what I mentioned yesterday, certain things may not be working on the website (e.g. links, pictures, etc), so please extend grace! =)

Hello, graceabundant!

Finally, a new post! Although, that’s not saying much, because I’m not sure how much this will keep up, as no one will be reading this anyway! I decided to migrate hoongern.ath.cx to blog.graceabundant.com, because not being at home in M’sia and having to manage the server has been a bit of a pain (esp with EXTREMELY SLOW STREAMYX, Windows pains, dying hard drives, dying motherboards, expensive electricity, etc), so I’ve decided to let someone else do that job, and hopefully they do it well!

You can find it here: http://studio.graceabundant.com/albums/08pbj/

Enjoy! =)

So much for me posting stuff. From April 1st until April 22nd, the server was offline when one of its Hard drives died.. Only just got fixed =\ I’ll update more later.

A Fresh Start?

So, maybe I shall try to restart writing a bit. Nothing serious, nothing long, just for fun. I realized that knowing what happened years ago by reading old posts helps a lot! Not that I expect anyone to read anything, but this is more for me. So, today marks the end of spring break @ [...]

Ubuntu 7.10 ttys not working

I noticed that for a while after upgrading my ubuntu to 7.10, my ttys (Ctrl+Alt+F1…F6) were not working (just getting blank screens when switching to them), I didn’t bother much about them until now as I didn’t have much time, but I needed to do some tty stuff, so I finally found the solution.
