• also sparklines: http://www.willarson.com/code/sparklines/sparklines.html

Other sites - as a reference for design decisions

How To Clone the site (ubuntu specific)

Not updated - there is now settings_local.py that is in .gitignore and imported if exists. Since this is the first step in many things - from testing new features to transfering to another hosting solution (can you say I'm frustrated with dreamhosters disbarring my

4. clone mysql using utf charset: mysql --default-character-set=utf8 -uuser -ppassword < mysql.dump

5. git clone ..
6. add the following at the end of settings.py (and later save as a local settings_local.py)

  11         MEDIA_ROOT = BASE_DIR + '/siteMedia'
  12         MEDIA_URL = 'http://localhost:8001/siteMedia/'
  13         ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = 'http://localhost:8001/admin_media/'
  14         TEMPLATE_DIRS = (

Router

• ADMtek ADM8211
• 1317:8201

• http://aluminum.sourmilk.net/adm8211/

• http://www.mepis.org/node/3590

• some thread complaining he can't compile the oss driver. report of success with the binary driver on 2.4.

• general wireless resources with stuff about the adm8211:

  • http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Jean Tourrilhes has info on both the gpl and binary driver.

    • this guy is the bomb.

  • Linux Wireless Networking quick howto, ch13.

• debian packages related bug (don't seem to be maintained for the last year)

  • kanotix main driver (before rewrite)

  • there is supposedly an experimental package, but I can't find it.

• seattle wireless has a page on admtek. They have bad news - the ADM8211A cannot be used as an AP apparently. The newer B and C can, but I don't have them
