apt for paludis users (part 1)
For someone who is used to a sophisticated package manager like paludis, it is sometimes difficult to cope with ubuntu's package manager apt. So here is the beginning of a equivalence table between paludis and apt for the not so obvious commands:
paludisapt
paludis --uninstall-unusedapt-get autoremove

The correct time zone would be GMT or UTC or whatever it is called - sorry for the mix up.

problems with hal policy files (.fdi files)?
Use
sudo /usr/libexec/hald-generate-fdi-cache --verbose (path may vary due to the distribution) to debug them.

How to set static routes via DHCP
There are actually two ways to configure static routes, one via the standard option 121 (RFC 3442) and one explicitly for windows xp via the option 249. The syntax for those options differs a bit. This are the option I just used for my dnsmasq:
- dhcp-option=121,16.192.168,192.168.100.253
- dhcp-option=249,192.168.0.0/16,192.168.100.253
I had to search quite a bit around to find this, so I hope this helps to find the relevant information faster. NOTE: This is not yet tested for other systems than WinXP

My windows xp is moving to moscow!
I have a dual boot system with Linux/WinXP - but I don't use windows often. There is one annoying thing though: Everytime after I've booted under windows the clock is off by two hours (Windows stores the localtime on the hardware-clock whereas Linux prefers storing UTC).
Today I had the simple but effective idea to simply set the timezone in winxp two hours further east . There are probably more sophisticated solutions of this problem, but this is one of the funniest for sure.

Start and Shutdown problems fixed. Inserted the netmount service into /etc/init.d/mpd as needed. So it starts in correct order.
