xine-ui 0.99.6 RPM
Below is the RPM for xine-ui version 0.99.6. See the About the Xine RPMs post for information on how this RPM was built.
xine-ui — The user interface
To use this, you’ll also need xine-lib – as of this release, the most recent release of xine-lib is 1.1.19.
(To save disk space, only the current release and two prior releases will be maintained.)
xine-lib 1.1.19 RPM
Below are the library and development RPMs for xine-lib version 1.1.19. These were built on Ubuntu Linux and converted to RPM using alien. Be sure to check out the About the Xine RPMs post for more information.
xine-lib — The main xine library
xine-lib-dev — The development xine library (needed if you’re building an interface against xine-lib)
xine-lib-doc — Documentation
You’ll also need a user interface – as of this release, the most current release of xine-ui is 0.99.6.
(To save disk space, only the current release and two prior releases will be maintained.)
Tech Blog 2.0
After three years on WordPress, the DJS Consulting Tech Blog has moved to BlogEngine.NET. There are several reasons for this change, some technical and some not.
- PHP’s Fast CGI processor has a problem where, if all of the processes are busy, the server will simply time out. While this hasn’t afflicted my server as much as others, it has caused problems; when this problem occurred, none of the PHP sites were accessible.
- Through experience with a very heavily-used site, I became less enamored of WordPress’s “read from the database every time” way of doing business. I also found that various caching plug-ins for WordPress, on this particular site, did very little to ease the load.
- Since I first looked at Mono (Linux’s implementation of the .NET framework), it has matured significantly. It supports most of C# 4.0 already, which was released earlier this year.
- BlogEngine.NET is a rapidly-maturing blog platform, and the project has a stated goal of 100% compatibility with Mono. This is good, because you can mention Mono problems to the team, and you’re not dismissed because you’re running Linux.
As part of the move, the URL has changed; the new link is http://techblog.djs-consulting.com . I have implemented redirection for each post, the category and category feed links, and the main blog feed and home page from the old URL, so you may not have even realized that you’re looking at the new site. The DJS Consulting Software Repository remains at http://djs-consulting.com/linux/software.
I’m looking forward to this new setup!
