Nautilus desktop auto layout - updated for 2.26
The recent upgrade to Fedora 11 also brought an update to Gnome 2.26, so here's an update to my earlier nautilus desktop icon layout patch.
Fedora 11 ZeroMQ 0.6.1 packages
ZeroMQ was updated today, so here is a rebuild of the source rpm.
The most important change in this release for me is the addition of ruby bindings, since we use Rails at work.

Mac failure
First the bad news: my work Macbook Pro (3,1 Santa Rosa FWIW) had a logic board failure about two weeks ago. This, on top of a long known bad hard drive meant it had to be sent to Apple for some much needed TLC. The bad hard drive made itself known during a particularly busy time last year when I couldn't afford any downtime whatsoever, so I started to make backups twice a day to both an ssh server and a 16GB USB stick.
Apart from obviously unhappy with this double hardware failure, the repair process went pretty smoothly with a Fedexed box reaching me within 1 day, the boxed laptop reaching Apple in Houston the next where it was repaired and put back on a plane. If it weren't for an interceding weekend, the whole process would have taken just 4 days.
Less happy-making of course is the fact that the laptop came back with a fresh install of MacOS and Fedora needed to be reloaded from scratch. Yes, I backed up my data only and not the OS, something that's rectified in my new backup procedures using Clonezilla. (...)

Handbrake packages for Fedora 10
A year or so ago when I was still using Mac OSX on my Macbook Pro I discovered the Handbrake application for video encoding/converting. When my laptop was converted to Fedora 9, and then 10, I thought Handbrake would just be one of the applications I would have to do without - the other being Netflix streaming video.
Seems like I missed the fact that version 0.9.3, released during November 2008, includes a GTK user interface that is claimed to be on par with the Mac interface. The Handbrake site only includes Ubuntu binary downloads, though, so I built an RPM for Fedora 10 that seems to work. See attached.

ZeroMQ Packages for Fedora 10
We've been using [qpid.apache.org QPID] for messaging, and intend to use the AMQ protocol more extensively building the Nupack cluster infrastructure. And of course I'm always looking to optimize performance of the system, I built RPMs of 0MQ, which also implements the AMQ protocol, and claims very good performance.
Using the spec file from Fedora bugzilla it turned out to be a trivial task. Luckily the spec file already had Java turned off. The source RPM file is attached, and binaries can be rebuilt using rpmbuild -ba zeromq.spec.
