I put a compiled file at http://db.tt/wVCB6HJd. I copied it to /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Jerusalem, and on my Debian system I did dpkg-reconfigure tzdata which as far as I can tell copies the file to /etc/localtime. You may wish to use cp instead. ;) Disclaimer: I'm not responsible for anything

Re: CLI Ripping (was Blu-Ray and Linux)

2013-07-03 Thread Antony Gelberg
I'm not such a GUI user, but for rarely performed tasks like these, it makes sense. For CDs, I use asunder which is a GUI tool, to rip to flac. I then use Picard to get the tags correct (MusicBrainz is a wonderful service). For ripping DVDs, I use dvd::rip with great success. Hope this helps.

Hi all, I'm about to cancel my incredibly expensive HOT Triple and get Internet-only instead. I'm not that bothered about TV but I do have a MythTV box lying around from the old country, and I'd be happy to see if I could get it working here.  It would just need a PCI tuner card or two.  As I

Hi Stan, I got Hebrew support on my Android phone (HTC Desire HD / Android 2.2) by installing the third party firmware CyanogenMod which has many other benefits over stock. However, this technically voids the warranty. When I owned Nokias in the past, I used special software to change the
