Xephyr XVideo and GL has landed

I forgot to say that the Xephyr XVideo and GL hack I talked about earlier has landed in git master some while ago.

So now, to get the sources you can do:

git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/xserver xserver.git

To compile:

cd xserver.git

./autogen.sh --prefix=/your/prefix --enable-debug --enable-xephyr --enable-kdrive --disable-xorg --disable-dmx --disable-xorgcfg --disable-xcalibrate --disable-xsdl --enable-dri --enable-glx --with-mesa-source=/your/mesa/chekout --disable-xprint --enable-builtin-fonts --disable-tslib


Oh, you have to have a recent mesa as well. To you can get it with:

git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/mesa/mesa mesa.git

I personally use jhbuild to compile xorg stuff. If you have not tried it yet, you should give it a try because it eases dependencies management a lot. You can follow the instructions given here.

premières impressions sur blogger.com

Okay, mon blog est maintenant hébergé sur blogger.com. Le service à l'air vraiment pas mal. Intuitif, des thèmes pas trop dégueulasses disponibles par défaut, la possibilité de filtrer les flux rss par catégorie, et au moins, je suis à peu près sur de ne pas perdre mes données.

Franchement, je pense que cette plate forme est idéale pour bloggueur intermittent comme moi.

online.net erased my blog comments ?

I was disappointed do see that all the comments before 29th September 2007 got erased from my blog. The comment table in dotclear was completely erased. It seems my hosting services (online.net) experienced disk crash on their mysql server. Maybe that's related ? Maybe it's a dotclear bug ? I have no Idea. So I am seriously thinking about migrating to blogger.com now.

I have no idea if blogger.com is okay or not. Dear lazyweb, what would you advise me ?
