With help from Engadget I was able to upgrade my Tivo to server video from my PC. I applied the Superpatch on my Tivo and installed the the TivoServer on my PC. I was able to “record” one movie from my laptop. Next I’m going to wire it up to my home network and setup GoToMyDVR.

We have been running a script to build our RCP app headless using CruiseControl in addition to building the plugins individually. In addition to building our app we do some tagging in version control. In addition we build each plugin individually so we can run unit tests, etc. It took me a while to get it running but now we are pulling our code out of CVS for each build using a map file.
This is the command that CruiseControl runs in a batch file.
java -cp %eclipse_path%/startup.jar org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main -application org.eclipse.ant.core.antRunner -Declipse.home=%eclipse_path% -Dbuilder=%cruisecontrol_path%/projects/
It also took me a while to teak the build.properties setup now I have it using the CruiseControl timestamp and build number to name each build.

I wanted to install Fedora Core 6 on my laptop which already had Windows XP with the one partition filling the whole drive. There are several boot cds GParted, SystemRescueCd and Knoppix. I ended up using GParted which worked great after I ran a check disk.
