My new Job

Hi guys!

After a month without any work to do for my job, I have chosen to "dismiss" / quit/ give up to my job. So I called few others companies which give me a job last summer. So, one of them give me a job. Now, I am working for Davidson Consulting. I posted a message about it few months ago.

So, I am working on "safety" on the new ERTMS norm. It is about railway "guide".

Schneider Electric gave me a job to. It was about developping firmware on elctric device for industries. It was about working in Grenoble, and I gave up. I don't really know why, but many things are confused to me. Maybe I act under the "crazy youngness".

"Never look behind you, and never regrets your acts", that's what I am saying to me today.

Bye Bye

My linux box works again !

Hi all!

Yeah ! After a look on the web, I achieve to make my linux box works :D. After reading a lot of things about archlinux and the new kernel 2.6.18 and mkinitcpio, many people have few troubles. So, greatfully to me, someone make a working installation ISO. You can find it there. I really advise you to use this ISO.

So today I setup everything, and my computer never runs so smoothly under linux! Plus, I discovered new stuffs under firefox :

- Adblock filterset.G updater

- torrent search toolbar

- NoScript

- VideoDownloader

- PDF Download

- FireFtp

- ForecastFox 110n

- Deepest Sender (it seems it doesn't work today)

I already use most of them from many months, but few of them are newer to me, and useful. For exemple PDF Download give you the choice between download the file or open it threw the browser plugin. torrent search lists new torrent files, Noscript blocks javascript (it is a complement to adblock plus). With Deepest Sender, you can post news on your blog. I am using it for the first time to post this message. A tip : to use this firfox plugin with blogger.com, you should put this path in the option :

http://www.blogger.com/feeds/blogID/posts/summary where blogID is your blogID.

Have a nice night

Crash of my Linux system

Hi all!

since 2 days, my linux Box has been down! I did a huge update (the last one was in May 2006) and in the linux community, there were a lot of new release around the kernel and other dameons...So all these stuffs made a big mess on my laptot and I am trying to save as many data as I can. It is a very low process under Windows (or maybe I had too much data ;) ). So I am reading and listening musics waiting the end of this. Then I will install again an archlinux linux distribution. Again a week end to do nothing :( .

Next Friday, I am pretty sure that I will be at the Supelec Gala . It is a huge event in Paris : more than 5000 people is waiting ;). Have a look on the website.

Few albums to listen :
