Journal Journal: Welcome back me & watch out for debian upgrade

Was here looking for last years posts on getting a tv card working so thought I would say Hi.
Hi.
So running debian sid I just did an update/upgrade to the 3.8 kernel and a bunch of other stuff.
xfce a bit busted.
grub changed some stuff around which was not expected but fixable.
And as alluded to above tv card not working. Not sure why. Boot into 3.2 kernel - working. Boot stock or custom 3.8 no.

Have a look at the IPA.

I haven't watched it and don't plan to.

Surprisingly enough Murdoch's spiel may not have been the worst at the celebratory dinner from various reports.

RSS feed into thunderbird & then (laboriously) add rule for each author - tag sdje and then I have sorted the column. I could move them to another folder and I still might but still a sort of work in progress.

Adding the rule is straight forward - you click on the author name select Create Rule from.

Appears our secret service can't keep a secret
"Suspected Australian-Israeli spy Ben Zygier is believed to have been arrested by his employer on suspicions he had informed Australia's domestic intelligence agency of his work for Mossad, reports say.

I can upload a copy (in googling around I saw the program available on some sites) if you want but anyway

"A spokeswoman for Senator Carr says the Minister was initially advised that the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFAT) was unaware of Mr Zygier's detention.

"DFAT has now advised that some officers of the department were made aware of Mr Allen's detention at the time in 2010 by another Australian agency," the spokeswoman said in a statement. ...
Israeli censors today banned media reports based on the Foreign Correspondent program."

Spooks wouldn't hide info from the government would they for their own games.

For reference ASIS is part of DFAT (Foreign Affairs & Trade)

Bizarre. Seems he like he was left to live until after some event had passed that he was no longer useful but knew too much to be allowed to roam.
Date of death apparently 15.12.2010
Could be almost anything
