Steps are simple:
Weiterlesen: Installing Mysql Workbench 5.2.11 from source on Debian 6.0 Squeeze
Download the sources ~ 14 MB
extract it
install ~ 30mb of packages via apt-get
run autogen
make && make install
start it
But it may some time, at least on my slow notebook (p4 mobile 1,73 ghz) autogen took 10 minutes, make took about 60 minutes and make install another 4 minutes, but if you ever compiled mysql-server yourself you now ... mysql may take some time :)
So here in Detail, almost copy & paste-ready:
Kommentare: 1Caching Libraries and Opcode-Caches in php - An Overview
07.01.2010 02:33


Caching data is an important part in todays Web-Application, it can boost the performance, save time and resources or can be necessary because of limited or slow calls to external apis and services.
Things you can cache are for example database-querys, api-calls, generated data (html, images, .... ), return-values of methods and a lot more things.Here is an overview of classes you can use to cache all kinds of data. From PEAR over the Symfony Framework to the Zend Framework. With slow file or database-based backends and fast memory-based backends like APC, Memcached, eAccelerator or Redis. After the caching-classes is a list with opcode-caches, because some of them offer memory-based cache-backends.

07.01.2010 01:54


PHP offers a lot of ways for requesting (GET) content via http(s) (and other protocols) and sending POST-Requests, if you need it for accessing an API, downloading files, unittests for a webservice, login-requests or whatever.
The extensions behind all those variantes are sockets (fsockopen()), streams (stream_socket_client()), curl or the PECL Extension Pecl_Http. Not all are usable on every host because of the php-configuration and the compiled/loaded extensions.
Here is a list of extensions and php-classes which can help you with those topics.

07.01.2010 00:50


Noticed it some time ago that like in ubuntu (since 9.04), debian doesn't restart the x-server if you hit ctrl + alt + backspace anymore.

It was deactivated in the X-Server some time ago because people thought it was pushed to often accidently, especially by former windows users. I think I never pushed it accidently, but well, as long as it is easy reactivateable it is no problem.
Kommentare: 0Installing PHC 0.3.2 and ThinkPad Fan Control (tpfand) 0.9.5 on Debian Squeeze for my intel-based R52 Thinkpad
28.12.2009 12:59


Since I switched from Ubuntu 9.04 to Debian 6.0 Squeeze (testing) a week ago I missed the phc-module for undervolting my intel cpu and tpfand to control the fan-speed based on temperatures of sensors on my thinkpad (R52 - 1846-64G)
On Ubuntu 9.04 I used a ppa-repository from launchpad like it was described here.Since there was no repository for Debian Squeeze I just build the module with the help of phcs build-script (should support kernel 2.6.27, 2.6.28, 2.6.29, 2.6.30, 2.6.31 and 2.6.32, my squeeze runs 2.6.30-2-686)

12.12.2009 11:50


Propably I am really a bit late, but today I found my Zend Framework-Poster I though I never received, somebody had put the envelope into the wrong shelf and this week I got my SektionEins PHP security poster.
SektionsEins (Stefan Esser) currently offers a free PHP security-poster you can order on the SektionEins-homepage and Mayflower offers a Zend Framework Poster.More information about the posters you find on the suspect.org-blog by Stefan Esser and on the thinkphp blog. So if you interested and are willing to give away your name and adress, order them.
They are both available in english and german.I have to say thanks to SektionEins and Mayflower for those 2 great Posters, my only problem currently is how to get them both on my walls, I would have prefered to put them both on the ceiling above my desk, but since we have a wooden-ceiling with lots of crossbeams, that is impossible, I think I will have to rearrange some stuff in my room to place them somewhere I can read both without turning around or standing up.
