edoneel daily - daily stuff on random subjects


I've moved to sdf, a very cool public access unix system. The new url is http://edoneel.chaosnet.org

I used to think I'd find web services interesting, but, you know, after quite a few months I find that outside of work I just can't get excited. Ergo, we will not focus on web services anymore. Maybe Economics? I sure do spend a lot of time reading about that. OTOH, 3D graphics has always really interested me...

Graphics

Cairo is a vector graphics library designed to provide high-quality display and print output. Currently available output targets include the X Window System, OpenGL (via [WWW]glitz), Quartz, win32, in-memory image buffers, PNG images, PostScript, and PDF files. Some of these backends are still experimental. Cairo is designed to produce identical output on all output media while taking advantage of display hardware acceleration when available (eg. through the X Render Extension or OpenGL).

Kerrighed (http://www.kerrighed.org) is a Single System Image (SSI) operating system for clusters. Kerrighed offers the view of a unique SMP machine on top of a cluster of standard PCs. Kerrighed is implemented as an extension to Linux operating system (a set of Linux modules and a small patch to the kernel).
