Gamblers doth Idyl

When hiring or being hired, if they fuck you during the application they will fuck you on the job.

Beneath my palm-trees, by the river side,
I sat a-weeping: what enamour’d bride,
Cheated by shadowy wooer from the clouds,
But hides and shrouds
Beneath dark palm-trees by a river side?

 – From “Song of the Indian Maid” from “Endymion” by John Keats

I needed mysqlnd support

First:

sudo apt-get install apache2-prefork-dev

then download php source from php.net

unzip it somewhere and then:

'./configure' '--with-mysql=/usr' '--with-curl=/usr/local' '--with-gd' '--enable-cli' '--with-zlib' '--with-openssl' '--enable-bcmath' '--with-mcrypt=/usr/local' '--prefix=/usr/local/php' '--enable-mbstring' '--enable-soap' '--with-mysqli=mysqlnd' '--with-pdo-mysql=mysqlnd' --with-apxs2=/usr/bin/apxs2 --with-config-file-path=/etc/php5/apache2/

make

sudo make install

sudo apache2ctl restart

NB: Having to restart it twice has been observed??? Just sudo apache2ctl restart again if need be.

No work is better than bad work.

Spent a few hours today trying every variation of fixes on the web.

This one actually works! Thanks to Jeff Rasmussen: http://jeffrasmussen.wordpress.com/2009/02/04/ubuntu-quickcam-express/

On his Step 11: In case you don’t know: remove the module thusly: sudo modprobe -r quickcam

Here is a copy of the code already patched and ready to go:

qc-usb-source-patched-for-ubuntu-8.10.tar.gz

With this code you should just have to:

remove your camera from the usb port
make quickcam.ko
sudo cp quickcam.ko /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/ubuntu/qc-usb/
modprobe -r quickcam
plug camera back into usb port
start cheese

“It’s time to stop trotting out the sheep jokes and the endless ribbing on the sports field and make our relationship more sophisticated”

“Isn’t Tasmania the butt of all the jokes over there? They’re just attacking us because they themselves are at the bottom of the pecking order back home.”

Hypocritical much?
