New Mouse

April 22nd, 2009 by Arnoldas

So a few weeks..or even a month now maybe since i bought a new mouse ;P yay. It’s really smooth and awesome and it is Razor Lachesis !!! I was looking at the G5 as well but i thought i’d try Razor products cause i never had before.  So after a good month of usage i really like this mouse, i don’t really use any other additional keys except for tradition left/right and scrollwheel.  I am very happy with the purchase so far =]

March 16th, 2009 by Arnoldas

So I wanted to tell you guys about this game I play often these days. Its called Urban Terror or URT for short. You can visit the website here: http://urbanterror.net/news.php It’s using quake3 engine and its similar to tremolous and other games based on q3 engine :] It has wide variety of weapons to play with and its pretty strategic as well. If you like first person shooters you should try it out as well its much fun and you can play with me as well! So if your interested just contact me and i am sure something its going to be arranged ;P

back on track

February 27th, 2009 by Arnoldas

Howdy, so i wasn’t posting for some time and decided that it would be a good idea to post something new, since i got something to post! lol.

Last friday or thursday my old monitor LG Flatron L1930P finally died and i couldn’t turn it on anymore :( But i ordered a new one on monday morning, got it on tuesday morning, which is excellent.

So i bought Samsumg SM2343NW from ebuyer for 141pounds including delivery, its an excellent monitor the specs are:

  • Screen Size : 23″ Widescreen
  • Resolution : 2048 x 1152

I am pretty sure the price is really nice for what i got and i am very happy with the purchase so far.

If you want to read more about it click here
I will add more pictures of how my setup looks this weekend most likely.

#2 my own note

February 3rd, 2009 by Arnoldas

One day i decided it would interesting to connect to my PC from the college via ssh, of course the sysadmin is not friendly and decided it was a bad idea to leave default ssh port open.  Since that wasn’t too important i left it alone and went on with my day..So today  some guy at slackwares channel asked how to resolve that problem and spook helped him out and me. So thanks spook for the iptables command (not like he’s going to read my blog ever, but just in case ya know)

the iptables command:

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp –dport 80 -j REDIRECT –to-ports 22

So as far as i can understand it (lol) Anything that tries to connect through port 80 will get silently redirected to port 22. Going to try it out next time i am at college and then report back ;-]

#1 my own note tip.

January 9th, 2009 by Arnoldas

This is gonna be a wine tip because when I  always install a new wine version I usually install steam or something. So usually you just go wine SteamInstall.exe, and everything works. But Steam now has the file  as .msi extension, microsoft install ffs! but there is a way around how to launch that file in wine anyway. You just need this command:

wine msiexec /i SteamInstall.msi

and it should launch ;] it worked for me on ubuntu and on slackware as well =]
