sorryToday i got another 4 hours of down of the site.
When i logged into my hosting site i found that my homedir was empty and when i requested some informations at the support i got:

“We have checked your issue and found that you have deleted all main dirs(public_html,etc) thats why your site is not working.

We need to reset your account and then you need to start from scratch.”

So my hosting say that’s i’ve deleted everything and than i forgot everything about this…. sure.

I think it’s pointless to spend time with the support trying to understand what really happened, perhaps it’s not even their fault and so i’ve spent the last 3 hours in recovery the site from a backup (luckily i’m used to do this at least once at week).

So sorry for this further down of the site, i’m already searching for a new hosting company and i promise that i’ll not delete again all my files in my homedir in the future.

Today we have a guest article By: Guillermo Garron from Go2linux, i really like his site so if you don’t know it i really suggest you to go and ckeck it.

Introduction

First of all, I would like to thank Riccardo to let me post this article in his wonderful blog.

I’ll write this time about Slackware and the imminent release of the 13.37 version, why 13.37? strange release number for Slackware, but for the first time Slackware has a codename, it is “leet” so 13.37 = leet :).

Like someone in the LinuxQuestions forum wrote:

Sl4ckw4r3 l1nux r0ck5.

Y may say

“Sl4ckw4r3 13.37 l1nux r0ck5”…

IE9vsMozilla This interesting article is not so neutral for sure (it’s hosted on the mozilla site), but from a first reading seems very well made ​​and supported by numbers.

The article start with “Is IE9 a modern browser? NO”

IE9 is definitely better than IE8 and a step in the right direction, but I don’t believe it to be a truly modern browser, and let me tell you why.

* Classic Gnome Desktop by default (dmandell)
* Action: rickspencer3 will bring up the state of unity on the -desktop list for public review and discussion

So, there is in the technical board a discussion about changing the default desktop ?

Yes, from today the site has a new look.
I apologize to those who landed today on the website there were probably times when everything was not exactly in the right place, and probably some pages were not visible at some time. Now all major problems should be fixed, for what i know there are just some small glitches left: the time when a comment has been posted for example.

So goodbye dear brownline theme, you were nice to me but to be true in these 8 months I had a bit of criticism about its layout and the fact that it was too dark and not very readable.

And of course, welcome to the new theme, I moved on Suffusion a light theme, with many customizable options, let’s see some that I used on the site.
