Osječki GPP koristi OpenStreetMap kartu!

 
Svaka pohvala ekipi iz GPP-a što su prepoznali OpenStreetMap projekt i što koriste kartu Osijeka za potrebe GPPa.
 
Svim nama koji volonterski sudjelujemo na ovome projektu nema draže stvari nego kada vidimo da se karta koristi i za neke konkretne stvari te da pomaže ljudima.
 
Ovim putem pozivamo sve vas da se također pridružite ovome projektu makar na taj način da pogledate kakva je karta vašega kvarta. Imaju li sve ulice imaju ispravna imena? Jesu li jednosmjerne ulice pravilno označene? Postoji li trgovina, kafić, servis, restoran u vašem kvartu koji nije unesen na kartu? Također možete dodati i kućne brojeve u vašoj ulici.
 
Ako se odlučite pridružiti više informacija možete pronaći na hrvatskim stranicama OpenStreetMap projekta.

Which wireless driver does your wireless card uses on Fedora and Ubuntu?

 
If you have a new Fedora user (or user of any other distro) who has problems using his wireless card first thing you need is for him to tell you which wireless card he has and which wireless driver his card uses. For experienced users this is trivial and can be done in several ways. I found that this can be a bit tricky for new users and there isn’t one simple command that displays ONLY this information.
 
This one liner seams to do the trick for PCI wireless cards:
 
lspci -k|grep -i -E “wireless|wlan|802.11″ -A 2
 
UPDATE:
 
Also try this command:
lshw -class network |grep -i ‘description: wireless’ -A 11
 

BROADCOM:
30:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN (rev 01)
	Kernel driver in use: b43-pci-bridge
	Kernel modules: ssb

INTEL:
02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG
Network Connection (rev 02)
	Kernel driver in use: iwl3945
	Kernel modules: iwl3945

ATHEROS:
01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg
Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01)
	Kernel driver in use: ath_pci
	Kernel modules: ath5k, ath_pci

INTEL:
3:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection (rev 61)
     Kernel driver in use: iwlagn
     Kernel modules: iwlagn

 
I tried this with Intel, Atheros and Broadcom wireless cards. Do you know of a better way to do this? How would you do this for USB wireless cards?

Fedora Chromium repo no more?

 
Tom “spot” Callaway Spot has been mainataining Fedora Chromium repo, but now it is gone and there is no explanation on Tom’s Spot’s blog :(
 
UPDATE: But there is an explanation in README.txt file.
 
It looks like Chromium won’t be making its way to Fedora repos anytime soon because of Googles non-cooperation :(
 
To make things worse Community Fedora Remix included chromium repo by default and now updates are broken for lots of people because of that :(
 
Is there some new Chromium repo or is the only solution to install Google Chrome instead?
 
Tom Spot congrats to your wife and you on baby! Also on moving to a new house, I hope you continue maintaining chromium repo.
