MS .net Plugin automatically installed in Firefox

By tkhobbes on 01.06.2009

Unbelieveable – they did it again… Microsoft really seems to have massive problems when it comes down to “what users need” and “how to implement it”. Latest example I just learned of – the .net click-once thingy bitty extension that is installed AUTOMATICALLY and WITHOUT any knowledge of the user for Firefox. In a MSDN [...]

Fix Firefox

By tkhobbes on 04.01.2009

Windows Media player doesn’t play all files

By tkhobbes on 03.05.2008

I have some strange issues recently with my windows media player – it does not play all video files any more (I have no problems on KDE with kmplayer, though). Turns out that this seems to be quite a common error…. The web-help of Microsoft points to this page, and it says something about iD3 [...]

CUPS and Samba integration

By tkhobbes on 02.03.2008

My server is up and running for quite some time now – but still, I have no way of printing when my client is running Windows. It is time to integrate CUPS and Samba. So, we start off with the official Gentoo Samba documentation; here are the sections out of /etc/samba/smb.conf: # This is the [...]
