Howto: install Air XR18's edit software on Gentoo

Well, I've made the best buy a GNU & Linux user can make when it comes to pro-audio. I got an Air XR18. This product is one of the best of it's kind. The preamps, FX and software are awesome.

Yes, it works fine on GNU & Linux and Android. Here's how …

HowTo: Fixing Dovecot 2.2 in CentOS 7.2

Advertencia

If you update dovecot on CentOS 7, it will brake! You need to update one of the config files in order for it to keep working.

# /etc/dovecot/conf.d/15-mailboxes.conf
...

namespace inbox {
    ...
    inbox = yes
    ...
}
...

So, basically, you need to add inbox = yes within the inbox namespace.


Far away: A Creative Commons success story

Once upon a time, I made a song for a good friend (Juan Carlos Cano); since he got a good contract from a big label and he was to record an album.

The song was made and I uploaded it to my website …


HowTo: Compilando crystal en Fedora 22

Me ha interesado mucho el lenguaje de programación crystal: http://crystal-lang.org/.

Este lenguaje tiene la sintaxis muy parecida a Ruby; si no es que igual. Parece que hasta el Matzu; creador de Ruby, es fan del proyecto.

En todo caso, para compilarlo en Fedora, hice un script. El script …


HowTo: Permanently redirect a request with parameter consideration in Tengine/NginX

Well, this one gave me a super hard time. I looked everywhere and found nothing. There is a lot of misinformation.

As usual, the Nginx and Funtoo communities helped me. Thanks to:

  • MTecknology in #nginx @ Freenode
  • Tracerneo in #funtoo @ Freenode

So, how do we do this? Easy, we use a …


El dir-foss va creciendo

Que gusto me dá que esté creciendo el proyecto de dir-foss. La gente de México ha estado colaborando bastante para hacer el proyecto de fiar y demás.

Nos faltan algunas cosas, todavía. Por ejemplo:

  • Hay que hacerlo más bonito.
  • Hay que seguir agregando gente.
  • Hay que escribir algunas pruebillas unitarias …

I'd like my kernel vanilla, please

Yep, vanilla is the flavor of the kernel for me. I like using vanilla in #funtoo. It is nice and it is simple. No patches. No security watch-cha-ma-call-it or anything like that. Just me and that good 'ol penguin; which deals with my hardware, networking and you-name-it systems.

I like …


Directorio de Organizaciones que tengan que ver con FOSS @ México

Pues me puse a hacer un directorio en github.

https://github.com/LinuxCabal/dir-foss

La idea es que colaboremos todos en registar los Grupos de Usuarios de Linux (GUL) o Grupos de Usuarios de Gnu & Linux (GUGL) en el directorio.

Pero, no se limita a estos. Si tienes cualquier tipo …


Funtoo

Ok, just to announce, in case anybody cares, that I am a dual resident now. I have Funtoo on my desktop (the PC I use most) and Fedora 21 in my laptop.

Usually, I write all my articles for Fedora but, for now, I will be writing them for both …
