Anytime wireless internet we're coming.
Today the Base UMTS card from alphaone arrived.
Together with my Option UMTS card he is now able to has internet access mostly everywhere. This is especially fine because we are on a trip to FrOSCon this weekend. This means internetradio during the road trip. :)
To have net acces even if the FrOSCon network is down alphaone have setup an software AP on his laptop and so we are able to simple join the wireless lan and have net acces. If you are at FrOSCon, search for essid WWAN. ;)
The only pity is that we don't have been successfull to get this SIM card working with Jan's bleeding edge x60s ThinkPad with integrated umts modem. The modem has a netlock which is totaly stupid, because he bought the notebook without a contract for wirless data transfers. Hopefully he will get the unlock code soon.
With some network script and openvpn magic alphaone is now able to have now access to internet and home network. Amazing.

latex-beamer documentation
I'm using latex-beamer for all my
presentations. That based on the fact that i like to write just
plain ascii and let latex doing all the typsetting.
Within the last four weeks i had to gave three presentations. So i decided it could be a good idea to look deeper into latex-beamer. I start to read the beamersguide.pdf.
214 pages full of usefull information. Not only technical stuff, but also good help for workflow, handout and article versions.
Especially one feature should go into my templates. Different slides on a second screen. This produces slides with the twice width. Together with xinerama or mergedfb i'm now able to have seperated slides for me and the audience. Nice for notes.
While reading the guide i stumpled over some minor typos and problems. So my way to say thank you for this great software and doc was a small patch.

datenfreihafen.org moved to another server.
The last two days i was working on
moving all content from datenfreihafen.org to another server. Now i
share a system with http://www.sicherheitsschwankung.de/.
With this move all my space and traffic problems should be gone.
While i moving the content i also move all old svn repositories served with svnserve to webdav. Hopefully i'll find the time to integrate the repos into the project part of datenfreihafen.org.
