KIWI-LTSP autologin
by Fred on Dec.29, 2009, under LTSP
If you are struggling with autologin on your kiwi-ltsp installation, try this:
[00:30:05:80:82:dd] LDM_AUTOLOGIN=true LDM_USERNAME=laeti LDM_PASSWORD=password
The LDM_AUTOLOGIN is key, and it is not documented much.
Looking at splitting your PDF on white pages?
by Fred on Dec.23, 2009, under Code and scripts
I am scanning PDF using my HP Photosmart premium, but HP software (which provides OCR) doesn’t allow you to create different PDF documents, by separating your docs using a white sheet for example.
What this script does is take a PDF file, search for white sheets (act as separator), and create several PDFs if there are any.
It works on both Windows and Linux, and is written in perl. It is currently a version 0.2. Version 0.3 will be soon to come to fix a couple bugs and make it more reliable.
Style and coding are a little messy, this is quick coding for home use. Bug reports or feature requests welcome!
