Marmitek Remote Control with LIRC Linux


First I should clarify that I have enough experience with the issue of lirc, which is software that basically allows you to run operations on a PC using a traditional remote control. 7 years I've been using it at home on my server and is part of my day to day as the PC works among other things like entertainment center. The first time I actually did use lirc from scratch, manufactured my own "receiver" of IR (infrared) by following instructions found on the Internet to build it and connect the serial port and configure a generic remote control for 5 euros. Over time I make changes here and there, but basically just changed the remote control looking more and more friends and the final finish using a Sony control was very good indeed. Lirc allows different types of things like execute commands by pressing a key (eg, run or close the Television application for, or to watch DVDs, or listen to music, etc) or send commands directly to applications (example: Skip the movie we're watching, turn up volume to give you pause a video, etc).

thought I'd never change the remote control, everything worked perfectly, especially when I lived in my previous apartment, where I had the server in my room which was relatively small, but nearly two years ago I moved to a bigger apartment and Now the server is in the room, which is bigger. The reception began to give me some disadvantages of distance and basically because I had to point the remote at the PC and had no major obstacles on the way (as a person in half.) Although a minor inconvenience, I could live with it.

But a few weeks ago I was researching a new project I have in mind for my next apartment / house when I move again, I have the idea of \u200b\u200binstalling a home automation system, this means controlling elements connected to the mains through a remote control and / or PC. For example, I turn off the light in the room when I go see a movie, you would with a remote control, I close electric curtains (if you have), I would do with the remote, I want you at 9 am each weekdays the PC make sure all lights are off and if you have forgotten to turn off some before going to work, the PC's fail. This is done with a technology called X10. Reading I found that Linux already has everything necessary to make use of it, it seems that many nerds using Linux in the world today, which does not surprise me. When I wanted to make a price list and evaluate the project, I went for the most recognized brand in the market, Marmitek and take me a very great surprise, they made a remote control technology that combines IR (to control traditional appliances such as televisions, DVD players , etc.) with technology RF (radio frequency) to communicate with a PC. Just out of curiosity check LIRC stand this remote and could not believe what I had discovered, the remote control is fully supported and works perfectly. Now what really shook the soul of a geek in me was that when reading the specifications discovered that by operating through RF in PC mode, the remote has a range up to 20 meters and no matter what obstacles have been involved, that is, through walls and whatnot. Just finished reading this was already decided, a quick search to find the cheapest place where you could buy and immediately ordered, 20 euros plus 5 for shipping. It should be noted that the remote control also supports X10, so when you deploy my automation system may use the same control.

The installation was incredibly simple, the control receiver is USB, so it was matter of simply connecting to PC. How does RF there is no problem concerning the location, so you connect to a port behind the PC and leave it hidden.

The next step was to install the driver for LIRC. Simple too, if you have the soul of nerd. We must choose the driver "atiusb" and not have to configure anything else (when using the above made by me, was to set the IRQ and UART serial port and do not remember what else). It compiles and installs the driver in the traditional way (make, make install). A detail is that the version of lirc 0.8.2 does not compile correctly under Ubuntu Dapper, so I had to use the previous version 0.8. When programmers will understand that also the stable versions not important?

I did a quick search on Google and found that this person was an example of the configuration of the buttons, the link is this:

http://www.t3i.nl/php/blogdload.php?file=lircd . marmitek.tgz

I basically use the remote to control an application called Freevo , so did not want to use the large circle above as the mouse (has 8 directional buttons, up, down, right, left, and a through each one of them). Freevo is controlled easily with UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, PLAY, STOP, so for convenience I put the big circle up and behave like the arrow buttons below that are very small and are uncomfortable to use. Complete the configuration by placing the buttons that emulate the clicks of the mouse L and R as STOP and PLAY, ENTER respectively. The rest was carpentry, other buttons more like the numbers, the forward, reverse, pause, menu, ok, etc.

If anyone cares, my configuration file here:

Finally
rigorous tests that were more than satisfactory. The reception is excellent, it works fine from anywhere in the apartment (which is two floors). Although I have not tasted from outside the building (I live in fifth and sixth floors), but I'm sure it works. I can not more to recommend this remote, is the best I've used so far. The only drawback is that it is relatively large and heavy and uses four AAA batteries and as it works with RF, I assume that last less than the normal control IR.

Chess: From wolf to sheep.

The weekend was in a rumba and I started to play with a friend who knew just move the pieces, some others gave him advice, but really the logic said I should kill him within 15 minutes. I was filled with triumphant and when he was going to commit serious mistakes, good people warned him and let him withdraw. Let him move a bit and prepare my final shot, when he had two motions to give the man unknowingly materil made a brilliant move to lie down my strategy, I smiled and explained as he had unwittingly done all we could do to save themselves, more people became interested in the rumba and gradually almost the entire world was watching the game.

From then on it was one of those inexplicable situations, I felt in a Lynch film, I made something and moved a Peoncita innocent man and I blocked the attack. Then he went closer to my king and thought he had no chance to do anything dangerous when he suddenly made a motion that he was just a simple check with the intention of saying the word check, but analyzing it was brilliant. The public comment and those who knew said that it was impossible to play than simply "move only knew Chips ", as I know it is true, only that the Virgin had jugandole next. I began to waver, and I did not feel triumphant and was frightened, and did not move in 15 seconds but it took me 2 or 3 minutes improbable to think that would make my opponent move.

was no longer plan to tell any error, even so could not give any decisive blow and what was worse, sometimes to questions such as "The Queen also move diagonally?". I felt helpless and the public was divided, as was most logical to support the weak. I began to doubt and make a bad decision, or rather, I played and lost, I realized he did not know well the value of each card because some sometimes risking chips more valuable than attacking, so I put together a strategy that could end in matazon and where I would lose the opportunity to eat was winning, but do not take it, it gave me more security and risk, again a play where I could eat and win and neither did the Public comments quietly to each other and finally risk the all out and did what I wanted, took the step to the itching and I finished without a queen.

From then on he was a battle to recover and I really had to strain, he finally achieved one of those mates with almost no chips on the board, with king (mine) and laborer involved, those who are already matecito with the latest.

A game that should be short term lasting 90 minutes and with all people Party seeing it, just just play, we all went because it was the only thing keeping people interested at the end of the night. I still remember what I told a friend when he was putting the board at the start, drunk on pride: This one bag up to mate pastor, but let them play around.

scsiformat is a Utility for low level formatting partitions. As we all know, Means formatting your data is gone and low level formatting is gone it Means weitere events. But this utility is clever, let's see What Happens When You try to format a partition: # scsiformat

/dev/sda1
About to format SCSI disk /dev/sda on host 2 chan 0 id 0 lu
Short INQUIRY answer :-(i
Partitions:
8: 0 sda 262 MiB
8: 1 sda1 261 MiB

Formatting 262 MiB can take very long. Estimate: 1 min

Warning! About to lowlevel format / partition /dev/sda!

This will erase all data on /dev/sda, on any partition, be
To ensure that you are really awake and as a confirmation,
the solution for this simple multiplication:

21 * 14 = 444

Wrong. You lost, but your data won.




As you can see, the utility asks for a simple question, a multiplication. If you do not answer correctly the partition is not formatted. You lose your data but wins.

But we all know as well that almost every single Linux / Unix program includes a way to force the execution, normally it is either-f or-F. Let's see what the manual says about:


-F arg
forced operation, do not ask prior to format. arg must be 'Ene Mene Meck, and you're gone! " with proper spaces and capitalization. (This is a German child rhyme kissing someone goodbye ...


Of course you can force the execution of the command! You only need the option-F with an extra argument, the German sentence 'Ene Mene Meck, and You're gone! ". You can format your partition but will scsiformat Ensure that You Knew What You Were doing!

As we can see, the utility asks for the answer to a multiplication, if we do not respond correctly partition is not formatted. The error message is funny: You lost, your data won.

But we all know that virtually all utility Linux / Unix include a form to force their execution, usually with the-f or-F. Let's look at the manual says about it:


-F arg
Forced operation, do not ask prior to format. arg Must Be 'Ene Mene Meck, und Du bist weg! " Proper with spaces and capitalization. (This is a German child rhyme kissing someone goodbye ...


Of course you can force the execution of the command, just a matter of using the option-F together with a well sencillito extra parameter, the German phrase 'Ene Mene Meck, und Du bist weg! '. The partition will be formatted, but scsiformat sure you knew I was doing!

As you get to be boss?

(Although this is oriented to the area of \u200b\u200bsystems is I work in what I think is easily applicable to other areas of work)

ever wondered as his boss came to that position if it is a completely gross? And realized that most managers have no idea of \u200b\u200bwhat they do? How could someone who knows nothing is your boss? Easy, anyone with a few years of experience can confirm what I have explained here, to become chief must be a mediocre employee during the first years of his work, be patient and have a little luck, that it.

As the race starts a boss? No one is named boss because if you have to take that first step and that is what it is relatively difficult ... or very easy. A chief began his career as every employee, from the bottom (unless the owner's son or nephew of the CEO, but those cases are not the ones discussed here) and usually the future leaders are bad employees. At the start treating it as a normal new employee, give things to do but still have problems, their solutions are incredibly mediocre or not work at all, apart from losing confidence because you never finish anything on time. The boss who takes the time he realizes what the employee is mediocre but usually after half-trained employees are the bosses do not fire them because they get to the point where a person can be productive is very expensive, it applies the best known evil than an unknown good. So what to do? the boss decided to give minor tasks mediocre employee responsibility, things that are repetitive and do not need much analysis, usually that means that the future head termini by testing or writing the documentation. The "poor" future boss becomes a pariah and other employees or the ride or would have hurt not knowing that in the future this "gross" may be your boss.

The future leader has a quality, not achicopala, so with great pride begins to live his new world of repetitive testing and documenting things done by others, a nightmare for us but he likes it. Time passes and your boss to see that the man has been doing well with those tasks that nobody wants, decides to do what everyone does in such situations, it gives more of those boring work and live lives as the head of fool little things begin to happen winded that technically are your responsibility, so making him the future head end expense reports the head, write minutes of meetings and to answer your emails. As people like the easy life and always go by car, the boss decides it is easier if you load your personal slave here and there, so he can do all these tasks smacks directly. And there is where the future head start learning the art of being boss. With the passage of time, the future leader and is known as the company works to perfection, as does the bureaucracy and who are the ones who really decide everything. Do not be surprised when you go out there walking with the future boss and this Sutanito and Perencejo greet, people who you most years leading the company that has never had the slightest idea who they are and when asked who the future boss are them, he quietly answered, that is Sutanito Perencejo that of the Comptroller and Purchasing.

Finally comes the day that the future leader will give the momentous step, one of those periods in which there is excess work and everybody is suppressed and "tits up", that apocalyptic day the chief took the decision to give a projective chiquito the future boss and he can not handle it alone. The future boss has every chance to succeed, and that takes time seeing how it all works, besides, you did not know, those "projects" never fail because in the end you end up doing two or three people who really know the subject and never generate shocks that require management decisions. That day you begin to understand what happened when the fool who sat next to him and not even know how to change the PC IP to come and say: Let's see Ramirez, I need to calculate these development efforts, here are the specifications , hopefully I can have it by tomorrow afternoon tomorrow because I have a reunion with the client and I have to pass the proposal.

Now that you know how things work is simple, if you still are young and want to be boss one day, only has to be mediocre and very patient. Because if you are good at what he does will become "indispensable" and will do the same for the rest of his life.

Insurance Settlement Letter

Drunk driving is never good. Part 1

upon a Saturday afternoon of a June 1995, I had just returned from a trip to Brazil after being stuck for about 3 months on a project day and night, as was usual and my friends came to the house give me the "welcome" and spent the afternoon with a drink called cachaca hell (the c with cedilla is German but my keyboard does not have one) I used to bring Brazil and instead of taking it as good caipirinhas we were Indians drank us pure. The diabolical drink and we are just one more infernal spirits Nectar, so it all afternoon and my friends spent a little drunk and go home to sleep the dog. I was still "good", had the thrill of finally reaching my dear Bogota and still had battery for a while and that was when the phone rang and it was some co-workers who were preparing to go to party at La Calera and I invite all like a glove, I called my best friend who lived in the same group as me and squared up the departure time. I took a quick shower, I put my pint of rock rebel who characterized me at that time, although I remember it perfectly, a Pantera shirt-and jeans Levi's. When it was perfumed to leave my friend called me and told me I could not go, and I apologize as I was anxious to go to party I said all right, you talked The next day, proceeded to call a colleague who also was coming and he had studied with me the whole race in college and was a close friend of mine and told him I was going to go alone, then he told me no sense take two cars and asked me to pick him up, the end was also alone.

Sali in my turbo Renault 9, picked up my friend and climbed quickly Caledon, we arrive at the club, was that it was burned and that the gossips say that the owners burned it to collect the insurance. I was already drunk and obviously more drunk Russian finished drinking vodka in winter. The rumba was good, I dance my meringues and very glad we left for home. I get off La Calera and soul by the devil, to which was the car, tires squealing in the corners, in a matter of nothing was in the seventh, take it and turn north on 127, let my friend in the 127 with 19 and take the 19 north towards Villa Magdala where he lived. And was so drunk he was driving by instruments, not the street looked good but I knew it all by heart because he had traveled countless times, knew where every hole. Pass the 134 with a stop and methyl semi slipper again, repeat the operation in the 140 and the 147 without knowing that misfortune was at hand. At about 200 meters from the 147, which was the first hairdresser Paul's (famous because it was where they cut their hair the chocolocos of Margaritas, and Capri Villa Magdala, including me) had a fallen tree in the middle of the street. As hps is a tree in the middle of the street? When I saw it was already over and in a micro second question many things went through my mind, the first thing was to look to the right and think about my friend and seeing the empty since I remembered I had not gone, then look again at the forefront and analyze the situation quickly, at a time is unspoilable such as one might think and analyze so many variables in a split second, my conclusion was Montoyesca, I decided to break the wavelet to the right, speed up, mounted the platform and dodge the tree. When I was going to do me repentance and change of strategy, I put my hand on the belt to confirm that you have set, I hit to the left, I forgot and Agnosticism I asked God to take me out of this key and brakes, the impact was brutal, the trees were about two or three meters and then the car hit him again. The car was crap, passenger seat went flying and the branches came in and were to my right a few inches of my head, then the expert would explain that the tractor speed branches become mortal and try my solution avoid the tree was a suicide. After the impact late in reacting, staring trying to understand if he was alive or not, but could not reach any conclusion, after a couple of minutes people came with the novelty and some came to ask if I was OK someone tapped me on the shoulder and felt the warmth of his hand, I felt my heart beating, I felt my breath and I realized I was alive. Move my arms a bit and then the legs and everything seemed fine. The spotted the car moved into my chest and imprisoned but fortunately I did not move enough to cause harm. That moment was one of the happiest moments of my life, knowing he was alive.

Because change is so hard?

Funny, we all slowly changing, if we remember how we were, dressed, we acted, etc. 10 years ago probably will give us grief, this confirms that we have changed slowly over time and appreciate those changes easily. So why make a radical change is so hard?

is proved that 95% of diets fail but instead of assuming that the problem is in people if that is not able to embrace change in eating habits that have to take the easy side and say that this diet and he later served a different test . The problem is the diet and not the person who most absurd conclusion.

not turn out the lights because we are not using if we know that it helps the planet and most importantly, in our pocket? Simply because we are not able to change the habits we have and the lights will remain on.

Because we prefer to drive cars, spend more money and stress in a traffic jam for an hour or more instead of taking public transportation, spend less money and time and go quietly listening to music and admiring the cityscape? Because we used to ride a car and do not want to change the logic so indicates that it is more correct alternative.

Because most people do not vote, but it happens all the time complaining about the rulers who have? Because they are apathetic and are not participatory and that will not change, like difference can my vote?

Some people have multiple credit cards and taking advances of a living to pay the other, making a bigger hole to plug the hole before. Why not just change the style of life and reduce costs to a level they can afford to borrow without that so illogical? Because changing the lifestyle is difficult.

And this negativity to change can reach extremes. 50% of people with a fatal but treatable still no treatment that could save. If you have to take 3 tablets daily are taken only 1 or 2 thinking that one day no further treatment will not make any difference and from the next day I started to do well, something that never happens. You can die by not taking medications and even that makes them react to change.
