A community build of Sailfish OS 3.4 for the Pro1 was released a month ago and I finally got around to flashing it.
These are my installation notes.
NOTE: DO NOT OTA UPDATE FROM 3.3 YOU MUST REFLASH
I finally received my F(x)tec Pro¹.
After checking with the shipped Android that the device was not DOA and applying all updates, I reflashed it with SailfishOS
These are my notes on installing Sailfish OS 3.2.1.20 community build.
Since 32 GiB SO-DIMMs are cheap at the moment, I decided to try an upgrade my ThinkPad X270 from it’s current 16 GiB RAM to 32.
Since I seem to set up new Sailfish OS devices at least once a year (because I got myself a new toy) and I am lazy, I set up my current Sailfish OS device, a Gemini PDA, up to work with Ansible.
These are my notes on using Ansible with my Gemini PDA running Sailfish OS 3.0.1.14
For some reason, Sailfish OS on a Gemini PDA
has a very small /

In February 2013, I got a new work laptop. It’s a Lenovo ThinkPad x230.
These are my installation notes.
Got myself 4m of ws2801 LED Strip and a Teensy 3.0
Turns out this is a neat combination.
Wanting to be able to use gnokii while I have a connection open with ModemManager, I created the following udev rules in /etc/udev/rules.d/98-pcfe-modem.rules
This is what I use to mess about my laptop’s power settings.
One of the uses of a TPM is to feed /dev/random on your linux box. I will not go into the political implications of TPM.

Those still running RHEL5/CentOS5, be sure to have rng-utils-2.0-4 or later and kernel-2.6.18-238.el5 or later.
Some of the following steps are specific to my HP ProLiant MicroServer, but most will apply to any modern linux and HW (one would prefer the TPM to be an integral part of the motherboard as opposed to a module).
