I’m working on doing some tests to compare different virtualisation technologies. Whilst those tests are far from finished, I got some numbers this afternoon who give a quick first impression.
What is being tested here?

Actually, this was triggered by clicking a mailto: link, whilst I hadn’t fixed Gnome’s default behaviour of launching evolution, so I just closed the mail dialog Window, but evolution seems to insist on staying running persistently.
But I don’t even use this freaky program. I only configure my Google Calendar to have it show up [...]

I’ve been looking for several backup solutions for VMWare lately, which is quite a depressing task, imho.

Having my laptop configured with dhcp through network manager (Ubuntu jaunty at the time of writing) is what I need in most networks. Often though, I need to contact hosts living under another domain. Traditionally, that’s wat the search option is in /etc/resolv.conf. It still is, but this file now gets configured dynamically through resolvconf, [...]
