Gnome: Calendar and/or contacts constantly requiring Google authentication (aka gnome fuckup)

 this "may" solve this crap...

rm -rf ./.config/goa-1.0/accounts.conf
rm -rf ./.config/evolution
rm -rf ./.local/share/evolution

KaiOS cockup...

Google calendar wont sync on the -crap- KaiOS, unless change the name of your calendar with your google email. 

You just have to go to your gmail/google calendar page (on a PC browser) and then the options (3 vertical dots) near your calendar, then "Settings and sharing"  , under the "Name" of the "Calendar Settings"  just enter your full gmail address (will show your name again, but don't worry).

God bless your furry companions..

games under wine and mouse "stuck" in the middle?

Typical BS from wine in fact BS from DirectInput, some games are working then on other games the fucking cursor stuck on the middle of the screen.

open a terminal then:

$ winetricks mwo=disable

The states of mwo (MouseWarpOverride) are:

mwo=disable  Set DirectInput MouseWarpOverride to disable
mwo=enabled  Set DirectInput MouseWarpOverride to enabled (default)
mwo=force    Set DirectInput MouseWarpOverride to force (needed by some games)

but on some games (eg S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series) this option needs to setup as disable

UI bug on chrome....

Its since a while that I had an annoying issue with chrome, context menu or bookmark menus displayed a black background for some msec before display the the menu entries, very annoying indeed. Happened just on my linux installation -any linux installation that I tried btw, while on windoze the chrome was fine.
I reported that bug reported sometime ago, but got a "wontfix" status.

After some tests I just discovered that this bug is eliminated at least using the v76 of the google chrome (unstable).

BSD under AMD APUs

Looks like the BSD full support -eg incl accelator -for AMD GFX is stalled around the Northern Islands / Cayman (2010).

Well, looks like the development is a bit slow, so I am not expecting support for Kaveri (R5 / R7 GFX) before 2019....

In the meanwhile Dragonfly BSD works like a fucking charm with my A8-7600!! Full effin accelator, glxgears show an average of 4400 fps !! (about 4030fps average under Ubuntu Mate, about 4700fps under OpenSUSE Tumbleweed). Not only the darn thing works fantastic, not at all playing with the rc.conf, just the users need to be on video group.

cheers to Dragonfly BSD dev's , unfortunatelly it won't be my main BSD system, there is no support for ntfs-3g  (just read-only NTFS) as fuse (the Filesystem in Userspace not the ZX emulator) is missing from the packages and also I need encFS (fuse based) too, maybe next time.

emacs org-mode to OPML

Just I wanted to export my emacs org-mode notes -its like a database in fact!- to OPML, there are some python scripts/addons  like org-opml and that, its the same thing anyway, somewhat outdated/abandoned/buggy shit, the only program that can do this is the Pandoc  -effin epic multidoc converter I have to say- not only can convert org-mode .org to .opml even to epub !! RECOMMENDED!
