develOOp another fine develOOpment

Disclaimer: I’ve had several people contacting me that they didn’t get this thing to work. I guess i still left out some crucial installation/configuration parts. Use with care!

This step by step tutorial explains HOWTO run functional tests in Drupal core. We will do this both from within drupal and from within eclipse.
My machine is running Ubuntu 7.10 and uses the standard Lamp stack which comes with it. PHP 5, Mysql 5, Apache2.

I just installed subclipse 1.2.4 from the subclipse update site...
But when i got into the Preferences>Team>SVN section i got some error about JavaHL not installed on my machine.
Apparantely this library is prepackaged with the Windows version of the subclipse plugin, but not so for linux or OsX..
Thanks to Nilesh's post i could quickly resolved this by doing

• Close Eclipse
  

For a client i needed to investigate S3 storage for a drupal media site. A 30 minutes job i figured.
Basically i just needed to see how to install it, check if all drivers were installed and check how we should configure it for the site they needed.

After 3 hours of 'working' i still hadn't configured anything although i worked very hard.
Read on to know what happened...

My Dell M65 with Quadro FX 350M card was running hot on the latest Compiz Fusion apt-get update's.
I had had it run very smoothly on beryl but than i headed for the adventurous path and moved to Compiz Fusion bleeding edge. My dell m65 portable was only 1 year old, and running a Nvida (i.e NOT ATI) graphics card, so I figured that all would be ok.
Allthough i was amazed by the very-well-behaving-integration of Beryl and Compiz, I was a bit dissapointed by the sluggish reaction of all window operations (rotating cube, zooming, mini/maximizing, ..)

Ik heb net een artikeltje op drupal.be geplaatst om uit te leggen hoe je xampp voor linux moet configureren om meerdere sites op je ubuntu machine kan draaien. etc/hosts en vhosts zijn de sleutelwoorden waardoor ik nu locaal makkelijk kan surfen naar http://klant1, http://subsite.klant2 etc...
