FireWire and FCA-202: workaround
Based on the ‘news’ that Apple changed stuff in AppleFWAudio.kext I decided to try to fix my problems by replacing the current 10.4.10 AppleFWAudio.kext with that from 10.4.9. After clearing the kernel-cache (with Onyx) and rebooting, I had working audio.
For those not proficient enough to figure out all steps on their own, here’s a step-by-step breakdown:
- Download all needed tools. The aformentioned Onyx, a copy of pacifist and the 10.4.9 combo-update DMG.
- Disconnect any unneeded USB and FireWire peripherals, just in case.
- Make a copy of the files in /System/Library/Extentions/AppleFWAudio.kext (ctrl-click and choose ‘make archive’. Drag the .zip-file in /System/Library/Extentions to a safe place.
- Open the DMG in pacifist. Inside, find (-F) a file called Archive.pax.gz, and extract that to your Desktop.
- Open Archive.pax.gz in pacifist. Find the directory /System/extensions/AppleFWAudio.kext, and extract that to its default install location. Pacifist will prompt for your password and a confirmation that you want to overwrite a system file.
- Start Onyx, click the ‘Cleaning’-button, and go to the Caches-tab . Check the System and Kernel caches. Application and Font caches are not relevant for this operation. Click execute, and wait until Onyx is done. Onyx will suggest a reboot, and I suggest you do that.
After rebooting your audio should work once again.

Vliegbewegingen volgen via Google Earth
Op 16 januari 2007 is een nieuw systeem gepresenteerd waarmee vliegbewegingen en vliegtuiggeluid real-time voor iedereen bekeken kunnen worden. Het Platform Vlieghinder Regio Castricum (PVRC) en Geluidsnet hebben gezamenlijk dit systeem ontwikkeld waarmee vliegtuigbewegingen worden geregistreerd en op Internet gevolgd kunnen worden.
Uniek hierbij is dat het vliegverkeer real-time getoond wordt, waarbij ook te zien is hoeveel geluid de vliegtuigen op dat moment werkelijk op de grond veroorzaken. Dit geluid wordt gemeten door het geluidsmeetpuntennetwerk van Geluidsnet.

Patently obvious – NYT
A Patent Lie – New York Times
Microsoft sang a very different tune in 1991. In a memo to his senior executives, Bill Gates wrote, “If people had understood how patents would be granted when most of today’s ideas were invented, and had taken out patents, the industry would be at a complete standstill today.” Mr. Gates worried that “some large company will patent some obvious thing” and use the patent to “take as much of our profits as they want.”
[..]”Microsoft’s own history contradicts Mr. Smith’s claim that patents are essential for technological breakthroughs: Microsoft produced lots of innovative software before it received its first software patent in 1988. As more and more lawsuits rock the industry, we should ask if software patents are stifling innovation.”
AT5 – Hoofddoekjes
AT5 weet me iedere keer weer te verbazen met korte leuke stukjes tv over onverwachte mensen op onverwachte plekken. Als eerbetoon deze keer een stukje over Abdesalam en Suzanne.
