Back to school...


Summer full of enjoyment and a trip back to India. What more could one want??? Studies and Classes??? Its the same ol' routine again - class, home, cooking, projects, assignments! Well, hopefully this will be my last semester at Graduate School. Will "try" to enjoy my time!

The palatial home at San Diego, the work at Qualcomm, the beautiful San Diego, my home in Bangalore, Mum's delicious dishes - I waved a bye bye to all that for the time being and am back to being a student at the hot-and-humid Raleigh. I'm eagerly waiting for winters. I hate summer in Raleigh.

My trip to India was really good. Its always nice to see your near and dear ones :) Most of the time I was home, helping my family pack as they are moving to a different place. Met friends, family. Had a nice time. About the travel, I'd like to caution people traveling on Lufthansa. The journey wasn't particularly a pleasant one. Especially my last leg of journey Frankfurt to Bangalore. It was an old Jumbo Jet (747) with almost absolutely no in-flight entertainment. Only I know how I managed that journey squeezed in the middle seat. If you are traveling on that route fully load and charge your iPods. You gonna need abundant supply of entertainment. So make sure your iPods are faithful!

More to come...

My iNav Remix - iPhone and iPod Touch UI

Image
My iTouch looked drab. It was screaming for a new UI, a new fresh face and so I got to work! Once a UI developer always a UI developer (no matter what platform :D). I took iNav and modded it to my liking - integrating widgets, editing the main menu, revamping the dock among numerous other things. I present you the iNav ANi Remix! Haf a look at the pics floating around this post. Kudos to the base iNav :) This UI has been customized for iPod Touch, however by placing the Phone and Text/SMS icons this interface can be converted to an iPhone UI. For those of you who dunno how to install it, I'm gonna quote the procedure. I'm too lazy to type :P Btw, before you proceed make sure you haf a jailbroken iPhone/iTouch for this (obviously!). If you are comfortable with SSH'ing into your device and uploading files then don't bother reading this tutorial! :D [Guide] iPhone/iPod Touch with 2.2.1 Firmware (Tested, might work with older firmware) Categories V2.23 (Tested, Might Work ...

Mac4Lin ver.1.0 Release Candidate

Image
Mac4Lin is back! This is the version 1.0 Release Candidate. Some components are still under development. Currently the shell script is not able to set the GDM theme, cursor theme, sounds, emerald theme. They need to be manually set. Also components like Firefox3, Thunderbird theme, awn theme/plugins etc. are still under development. The Mozilla themes may not be stable. Hence use the non-core components of Mac4Lin at your own risk. Documentation is still in the pipeline. I decided to release the RC anyway so that patrons can start using it and update to the stable version when development is complete. Whats new: Mac4Lin v1.0 RC - 9th September, 2008 New! Automated Installer in the form of a shell script New GDM theme Supports the newest version of GNOME and Xfce New Mozilla themes specifically built for Mac4Lin Adium style AWN status icons for Pidgin Mac style scrollbars, menus Other tweaks in GTK theme Adium sounds for Pidgin New usplash Keeping up the tradition I'm including the ...
