Migration of a XEN VM to HVM on Fedora Core 10
May 21st, 2009I’m used to run virtualized server on XEN (you’ll find a few posts about XEN on this blog), but time has come to rework some of the servers I’m working on. Upgrading a host to Fedora Core 10, I’ve been forced to notice that XEN was no longer part of the system.
RedHat indeedannounced KVM as a virtualization choice for the next release. So, let’s have fun with KVM and Fedora Core 10.
As described in this post the host is running two interfaces. This post will show how to create Bridge interface and will quickly get through the few roadblocks encountered.
VMWare Server 2.0.1 and Hotkeys
May 4th, 2009This post should be entitled “How to send CTRL-ALT-DEL to a Windows virtual machine running in VMWare Server 2.0, when running E17 on Debian GNU/Linux…“
Don’t know why, but after a Debian (and Nvidia driver) update, I was no longer to send CTRL-ALT-DEL to a Windows XP VM by simply hitting CTRL-ALT-DEL…
CTRL-ALT was capture by VMWare and ungrabbing the mouse from the VM console.
A couple of minutes later, I’ve found out CTRL-ALT-PRTSC to be an outstanding replacement to send CTRL-ALT-DEL to the Windows VM!

My first Cocoa application: mcHPscan
April 20th, 2009Here is a simple Mac OS X app I’ve just developped (Should I thank Jojo? Sure I do http://blog.mc-thias.org/rsc/smilies/icon_wink.gif” alt=";)” class="middle” />)
This application is an hp-scan wrapper for Mac OS X. It assumes that you have an HP scanner device connected to a Linux server running the HPLIP suite.
You can download mcHPscan from here
Do not hesitate to provide feedback, and don’t forget to have a look at the Readme (or Lisez-moi) file before starting using it!
More info may come, but honnestly, Steve has already documented every step that I went through… thanks to the Apple Developer Connection…
