So finally, Steve has unveiled iPhone 4. And the OS will now be known as iOS 4. On a different story, a worker at Foxconn died due to exhaustion. But I am sure the 2 are not related. Sent from my iPhone

official government smartphone apps
by saidimu apale 22 Jul '10

22 Jul '10

Here's an app (Product Recalls) that I use fairly regularly and that has been surprisingly useful, considering it is a government smartphone app: http://apps.usa.gov/product-recalls-2/ It checks product recalls from a bunch of US govt. agencies and provides you with the latest such info. I have found it extremely useful when shopping for baby stuff; previously we used to rely on recalls being covered by the media. Turns out there are many, many more not covered at all. A very simple app, and very, very useful. It got me thinking about what dead-simple govt. apps could prove useful in Nairobi. Any ideas? The nearest voting stations (from your present location) might be useful for the coming referendum. Saidi

Compiling freeradius 2.1.8 server on ubuntu 10.04
by Job Muriuki 21 Jul '10

21 Jul '10

Hi all. Am trying to install freeradius on ubuntu with out much success. The" ./configure, make and make install" go well without error but running in debug mode "radiusd -X" gives me: ------------------------------------------------------------ Could not link driver rlm_sql_mysql: file not found Make sure it (and all its dependent libraries!) are in the search path of your system's ld. /usr/local/etc/raddb/sql.conf[22]: Instantiation failed for module "sql" /usr/local/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/default[159]: Failed to find module "sql". /usr/local/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/default[62]: Errors parsing authorize section. ------------------------------------------------------------------ I googled and found out its a shared library misconfiguration in the ubuntu so linking the shared library is not possible. So anyone who knows how to work this out or has installed the same successfully give me some pointers. using the one in the ubuntu repo is not an option in this case.
