SmartOS as a Virtualisation Platform
Virtualisation platforms and technologies represent a big focal point of the technology scene these days.
Recently I’ve watched a dockercon 2015 presentation by Bryan Cantrill, CTO of Joyent, an OS kernel developer for 20 years and father of Dtrace as he calls himself [1], about how to debug docker containers gone bad in production. [2]
I recommend to anyone working or thinking of working with linux containers and docker especially to watch this presentation !
I have to say that this is one of the best presentations I’ve seen when it comes to showing the full picture of the docker tooling, lifecycle and ecosystem.
Linux Driving a Macbook Pro Retina Part 1
Have you ever felt the OSx UI/system to be too restrictive ?
Are you fed up with how the UI on the later installations of OSx is transforming itself into a phone UI ?

If so than continue reading to find out more.
X2go and Ssh Ecdsa Keys
reading time: ~7m
Is x2goclient
continuously asking you for enter passphrase to decrypt a key even when you absolutely know you’ve typed it correctly, or you already know the ssh key is handled by your ssh agent ?
Have you verified that your ssh key based login is working, via a terminal shell already ?
If yes, than read further to understand all about why x2goclient
behaves that way and why I think this is a new bug in x2goclient

Containerized Tweetdeck on Linux
Twitter [1] is one of these relatively “recent” proprietary platforms that make a few things a lot easier:
- sharing interesting articles
- sharing links
- sharing ideas - short ideas <= 140 chars :)
- ask someone from another country their feedback on something
- you can give feedback, in almost real-time, to the maintainers of some piece of software you use
- spam everybody with every single thing you do at every hour of the day ;) …
That being said, the status of the twitter desktop clients on Linux is close to unusable.
