OK, more data this morning.
Since the cyanogen upgrade, no linux vm I have on OSX/VMWare can
enumerate the phone over USB. This is a very common problem as
revealed by any search.
On the one linux box I have, the phone is enumerated as a USB storage.
There may be some setting I need to reset ...

OK, I just adb pushed the tar file over and untar'ed and things were
more complete.

linux versions of fastboot and mkbootimg into the tar file or on the

you're dating yourself :) slashdot was better back then. now it's all
whiny kids who like bells and whistles:

fingernail than Inferno on mobile has"
Hey Erik,
I thought you'd said you didn't read Slashdot!

of course, being well-tuned to the needs of the younger generation I
have prepared some tools that should allow them to, if not stay off
our lawn then at least be quiet while trampling it. i don't have an

does anyone have a ghostscript that works with amd64?
i can get gs to display man pages and the stuff in /sys/doc,
but not, e.g., the intel arch pdfs.
chula; page docs/intel/v3b.pdf
reading through pdf...
Ghostscript Error:
