as usually, we took tons of pictures during our last vacation, so eventually the memory card (a SD card) ran out of space. luckily, I had another SD within reach, so we just swapped them and went on…

By default, GIMP-portable tries to use a folder below the one it has been started from for temp and swap. That’s just fine if you use it on your usb-stick, but it bugs you with an error message if GIMP is supplied from a read-only network drive: “Unable to open a test swap file.”
This can be fixed by editing (or creating) the system-wide gimprc file, which is located in \Data\settings\ …
First, I tried to use the windows-style %APPDATA% variable, but GIMP does not interpret it correctly. Digging a bit in the web revealed the way how to do it, they have to be used in shell-style including curly brackets like this:
(temp-path "${APPDATA}\\gimp-2.6")
(swap-path "${APPDATA}\\gimp-2.6")

make it short:
-> open windows firewall, tcp port 6000
-> adjust the Xming startup command, include a full path for the logfile, e.g. “C:\Temp\Xming.log” instead of a filename only

Monitor All SQL Queries in MySQL is a very nice (though short) posting about how to debug and monitor what’s going on inside your DBMS. There’s supposed to exist a similar tool for MSSQL called “Profiler”.

aptitude has a specific list-category to display those when using the curses-GUI, but I do not like it. fortunately, you can use the search-command from the cli-interface with the appropriate search-pattern:
aptitude search "?obsolete" |
or as a shorthand:
See the aptitude Reference Guide for more information.
