If you are familiar with debugging under Windows, you may notice that gdb under linux has AT&T instead of intel asm syntax.

This can be changed using the command in gdb:

set disassembly-flavor intel

If you want to compile a c program to intel asm code, you can use the following syntax:

gcc test.c -S -o test.s -masm=intel

The -S switch generates assembly code instead of an executable.
To compile the code to an executable later on, run

gcc -gstabs test.s -o test

The gstabs switch is used to include debug symbols.

To turn off address space layout randomization use

When using Latex under Windows, TeXnicCenter and Miktex are my favorites at the moment. Although i consider Foxit PDF Reader a very good alternative instead of Acrobat Reader, Sumatra PDF supports some very neat features which are very useful when writing Latex Documents! When you click on a line in TexnicCenter, Sumatra jumps to the corresponding line in the PDF and vice versa (called forward/inverse-search).

The newest firmware for the Noxon Audio player also supports FLAC...
It is available here: ftp://ftp.terratec.de/HomeEntertainment/NOXON2/Updates/

The firmware has to be installed with the Noxon Firmware Manager (if the webinterface of the Noxon is not yet capable - because of a too old version).

Under windows newer windows versions, the XP SP2 compatibility mode has to be used, otherwise the Firmware Manager won't find the Noxon!
Also both the host computer and noxon must be connected to the network, preferrably both using a lan cable, or both wireless.

Today i installed kubuntu on top of Windows7 using Wubi, which creates a linux disc image in the NTFS partition where windows is installed...

The first problem i encountered after installing kubuntu was: "Try hd(0,0):NTFS5: No wubildr" after selecting kubuntu from the boot menu...
This is because Windows7 has an hidden System partition before the actual partition. The bootloader tries to locate the wubildr files, but can not find it at this partition and after some time looks on the second partition, where the wubildr files are copied by the installation.

I just programmed my LPC2148 for reading out my Xbox360 Nand and stumbled over some problems, here the details:

I am using an USB2Serial Adapter from Digitus, it was configured on COM7 (Check Hardware-Details on Windows).

To program the 2148, a RS232 shifter from Sparkfun was used.
After wiring the shifter and the USB board i tried to program using FlashMagic, but i just received an "Failed To Autobaud" message! Then i recognised that the USB board must be powered somehow, which was not written in the nice Tutorial i was using.

This article is about surfing (not only limited to) locally using a remote SSH shell...
The ssh client Putty and Firefox browser are used locally. The remote server must allow SSH connections on an arbitary port...

In Putty use the servers hostname and SSH port as settings, connection type must be SSH.
In the Connection->SSH->Tunnels settings enter a new forwarded port, here 1080 f.e. with destination left empty, Dynamic and Auto. Dynamic is important here, means that the destination can vary.

With the WRT150N it is important to first flash the mini image and then after dd-wrt works you can flash the standard image!

Do not use micro and mega images, as these may brick the router...

After flashing it is possible that the WebInterface is not enabled!
To enable it, connect to the router via telnet (Port 22) and use following username: root and password: admin

You can then simply start the webserver using:
httpd -h /www

And connect to http://192.168.1.1 via a browser if the router is directly connected to the computer.
