Problems installing Rails

When you are trying to install Rails via Gem, you will have this exception:
# gem install rails
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Errno::ENOENT)
    No such file or directory - lib

To solve it, the solution is pretty obvious, create 'lib' folder:
 # mkdir /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/rails-3.0.3/lib

Then execute the first command again, and done.

libgpod with Ipod Nano 5th generation

I've been having a bad time with my iPod Nano and Slackware Linux lately. A lot of the problems I had don't even need a description, but I give just some keywords : 'HashInfo' , 'SysInfoExtended' , 'Database Sync'.
's all,
All of  them were solved by building the last stable release of libgpod with this configuration:
./configure -prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib --with-hal-callouts-dir=/usr/libexec/scripts
That's all, have fun.

gitconfig4j v0.0.1

Another weekend project has been released. As a short overview, one of the things I really love about GIT it's the .gitconfig layout:



I love the simplicity and the clearness of those configuration files, and I wanted something similar for some of my Java projects, but I couldn't find an implementation of it.

So, I decided to create a very small library for supporting git-config file layout for Java. After a couple days of work, I have something I'm not ashamed of.

But well, here you go: gitconfig4j project page
