Patch for kmail

Kmail does not name the opengpg message part, so if you send email to a person that uses a mail reader that does not support the pgp mime type, It will show up as an un-named attachment. For Outlook users it will show up as an un-named dat file.

amarok supports libnjb

Amarok now has support for libnjb. So I can use my Creative Zen Touch with my music player in linux now :)

New toy

I just got a Creative Zen touch mp3 player that has a Signal-to-Noise Ratio of 97dB.

There are a number software programs for it in linux, all of them work really good. After testing all of them and creating an ebuild for kionjb kionjb-0.2.4.ebuild, I think like Kzenexplorer the best,

Broadvoice sucks

In my opinion anyone looking for a VOIP provider should stay away from Broadvoice for the following reasons:

* Emails to support@broadvoice.com never get answered. (at least none of mine have)
* Service is spotty. Sometimes your calls just stop working for no reason even though your device is registering with their server. Also sometimes you can't hear the other caller and sometimes they can't hear you.
* "features" suddenly stop working. You can email support, but they will never answer.
* Calls to support end in a fast busy most of the time... You never reach a human.
* when you do call support the music on hold is the worst music that you have ever heard.
* When broadvoice has a major outage they don't credit your account. You pay even if their service does not work for no fault of your own.
* Their voice quality has gone down hill (I have 1mb down and 300k up reserved specifically for broadvoice and MRTG shows my QOS never falls below this for my sipura. It's not a bandwidth problem on my end.)

My crappy motherboard gave out.

My crappy motherboard died. I have an Epox 8rda3+ that will not stay turned on for more that 30 seconds. I checked the power supply with a volt meter and it is steady and strong. Then I checked the caps and notice that they are all bloated. The tops of the capacitors should be flat, but not on my crap for motherboard. The top of the caps are round. I have computers that I still own from way back and none of them have ever had this problem. This motherboard is maybe a year and a half old, if that.

I will never ever buy another Epox motherboard. In my opinion Epox motherboards are all junk and Epox sucks.

/etc/localtime

A recent emerge using ~x86 removed my /etc/localtime. I am not sure how it happen or why but the file was just gone.

A quick ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Eastern /etc/localtime made everything happy again.
