Welcome to my personal wiki where I keep all my loose ends. I moved from PMWiki at the end of October 2008, however you can still get the LynxWiki theme for PMWiki [[http://wiki.lynxworks.eu/incoming/lynxwiki.tar.gz|here]].

I use this site predominantly to store information I might need to recall or pass on at some point, such as installing Linux on various systems and the problems encountered but there is a lot of Windows and STS related bits and bobs too.

Some of the information may become out of date, as its often recorded as I play with new systems, feel free to register and make changes.

<note tip>Please feel free to use or expand on this information but I ask you recognize the work that people put into OSS projects by respecting the [[/license|license]].</note>
====== Open University ======

I started studying with the OU for a BSc(Hons) Computing and Psychology in 2007 and for an IS oriented degree it's surprisingly Microsoft oriented. I'm studying Psychology this year so am not as IT oriented as usual.

[[/ou|Tutorials and guides]] to running [[http://www.open.ac.uk|Open University]] software under Linux.
====== Ubuntu ======

I've been a member of the [[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam|Ubuntu Documentation Team]] for a few years, so most of my contributions are in the current Ubuntu trunk. These are bits and pieces accumulated over the years:

  * Unanswered Posts Team - The [[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UnansweredPostsTeam|Unanswered Posts Team]] has a Firefox plugin that integrates with their tracking system. Bodhi.zazen hosts it but his certificate &&|| Firefox seems to be playing up, so I'm mirroring it [[/ua|here]].
  * Howtos - [[/ubuntu|Guides to various Ubuntu topics]].
  * [[/misc/e1550|Huawei E1550 (3 Mobile UK)]]
  * [[/misc/ztemf627|ZTE MF627]] slightly different to the Huawei.
====== Acer Aspire One ======

Popular piece of hardware, I carry one around with me and use it a lot. I use Arch Linux, which is very similar to Slackware but built around a better package management system called pacman.
  * Vanilla - [[/aspireone/linpus|Linpus Linux Lite]]
  * Strawberry - [[/aspireone/arch|Arch Linux]]

====== Commandline-fu ======

A place to keep all those useful [[commandline|command line]] entries.

====== Development ======

Stuff related to Ubuntu or Java [[/coding|development]]. 

====== Windows ======

Yes, I have to use [[/windows|Windows]] too.
====== Miscellaneous ======

Bits and pieces which don't really fit elsewhere:
  * [[/misc/bttogo|BT ToGo]] (HTC 620)
  * [[/misc/firefox|Firefox Improvements]]
  * [[/misc/freecom|Freecom DVB-T]] in Linux
  * [[/misc/e1550|Huawei E1550]]
