Stuff I'm involved with:
Smartmontools allows you to monitor hard disks health information (S.M.A.R.T.) of IDE, SCSI and SATA discs
on linux and several other operating systems. For more information
have a look at the
Smartmontools Project Page.
pam-exec is a pam module that allows you to call an arbitray program from
within the pam stack. The called program gets information such as user, ruser,
tty and service passed via the commandline and the password passed via the
environment. This can e.g. be used to disable the user account via an external
program or to do some checks on the typed in password. You can fetch the source
code using
git from:
git clone http://honk.sigxcpu.org/git/pam-exec.git/
pam-naming is a pam module that allows you to match usernames against perl
regular expressions using pcre. This can be helpful if you want to ensure that
usernames are e.g. all lowercase although pam_ldap would accept uppercase
usernames (due to the used ldap schema on the server). You can fetch the source
code using
git from:
git clone http://honk.sigxcpu.org/git/pam-naming.git/
Arcboot is the bootloader used on SGI/MIPS IP22 and IP32 machines. It currently
supports booting the kernel from an ext{2,3} filesystem and usually resides in
the volume header of a disk with a SGI disklabel. You can find it in the
Debian Repository. It's
git repository is:
git clone http://honk.sigxcpu.org/git/arcboot.git/.
The driver for the SGI's Indy and I2 newport graphics cards is now maintained
in
Xorg's
Git repository but the old page is still
here.
I'm using
GIT for Debian packaging.
Git-buildpackage contains scripts to create a git repository from an
exisiting Debian package, to import new upstream versions and to build a package
from a git repository. To get the current version use:
git clone http://honk.sigxcpu.org/git/git-buildpackage.git
Debian packages of git-buildpackage can be downloaded from the Debian Archive.
For more information have a look at the manual.
DufFS allows you to mount WebDAV shares as Linux filesystems. It uses
neon as WebDAV client library and libfuse
to interact with
FUSE - a kernel
module that allows for filesystems in userspace (available since Linux 2.6.14,
patches for earlier kernels are available on the
FUSE site). To build DuFS from source
you'll need
- libfuse >= 2.4.1
- neon >= 0.24
- glib >= 2.6
To fetch the sources use:
darcs get http://honk.sigxcpu.org/darcs/duffs/
or if you don't have darcs available:
wget -r http://honk.sigxcpu.org/darcs/duffs/
For details about this release have a look at the NEWS file or the more detailed ChangeLog. If you're running Debian you can simply build the package with
dpkg-buildpackage or debuild. Otherwise use cd duffs && chmod a+x
./configure && ./configure && make && make install.
For the last stable release (still using coda instead of fuse), use:
darcs get --tag=duffs_0.3.3 http://honk.sigxcpu.org/darcs/duffs/
to optain the sources.
PowerPC Debian MPlayer Packages
The packages are recompiled versions for PPC of
Christian Marrilat's Packages and usually only contain build-fixes for this architecture. Add this to your
/etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://honk.sigxcpu.org/linux-ppc/debian/ mplayer/
deb-src http://honk.sigxcpu.org/linux-ppc/debian/ mplayer/
The packages are built against Debian unstable.
Christian now handles the PPC and Sparc builds himself, which is great, since it leaves me more time for other things. Please have a look here:
