Wireless Doesn’t Work in Ubuntu 10.10
For the longest time, I couldn’t figure out how to get my wireless to on my laptop. I could enable and disable my wireless card, but I could never scan and view available wireless channels. After searching many forums, I came across an article that suggested this.
rfkill unblock all
After you run this command, disable and enable your wireless card. If your problem was similar to mine, then you should be able to see wireless channels and connect. I’m not sure exactly why this works, but it worked for me. Feel free to explain if you know why this solution works. I am curious.
I hope this helps someone out. I’m very thankful I was able to come across the solution.

Rename Files in Windows 7 using the Command Prompt
I came across a situation where a client of mine needed a whole batch of pictures renamed to display “underscores” instead of “dashes”. For example, I needed the following to be changed:
W-Lawther-4311-1263.jpg W_Lawther_4311_1263.jpg
Going through each individual file and manually changing each dash to an underscore would be painstaking. I did some research and found a very simple solution to this problem.
ren ?-???????-????-????.jpg ?_???????_????_????.jpg
Open up the Command Prompt (Start->Run->Type: cmd)
Navigate to your directory using the ‘cd’ command and display the contents of your directory using the ‘dir’ command. Here is an example of the process I went through.

Executable Prolog CLP Program for the Following Job Shop Scheduling Problem
The job shop scheduling problem has a wide range of applications in industry. The problem we will explore is a simple job shop scheduling for a print shop. The print shop has 6 machines: [printer, stapler, sorter, binder, packager, copier], and schedules a number of jobs over a two day (48 hour) period. Each job is a sequence of tasks which have a name, duration (in hours) and machine that they must be performed on. A schedule assigns a start time for each task, so that no task starts before the previous task in the job has finished, and no machine is busy with two tasks at the same time. The main user defined predicate defined to solve the scheduling problem is data(TaskList, Jobs, Machines, Vars) where
- TaskList is a list of tasks. Each task is represented as a term task(Name, Duration, Machine, StartTime) where Name, Duration, StartTime are the name, start time, and duration of the task, Machine is the machine the task needs.
- Jobs is a list of jobs which in turn by definition is a list of tasks. Each job in this list consists of the tasks that make up this job in the order that they should be completed,
- Machines is the list of all machines in the shop, and
- Vars is the list of all start time variables (of the tasks).
As an example, data/4 below describes a pair of small advertising print jobs.
data( %%% First argument is a list of tasks with name, duration %%% and machine and start time (unconstrained) [ task(ad1_copy, 4, copier, AC1), task(ad1_sort, 4, sorter, AS1), task(ad1_pack, 3, packager, AD1), task(ad2_copy, 5, copier, AC2), task(ad2_sort, 4, sorter, AS2), task(ad2_pack, 4, packager, AD2) ], %%% second argument is a list of lists of task names to be %%% performed in order [[ad1_copy,ad1_sort,ad1_pack], [ad2_copy,ad2_sort,ad2_pack] ], %%% third argument is the list of different machines [copier,sorter,packager], %%% fourth argument is the list of all start time variables [AC1,AS1,AD1,AC2,AS2,AD2] ).
The file ’job.pl’ above, containing the data/4, should be saved under the same directory as your program. When your program is tested, it should be able to handle more jobs and each job may have more tasks. This program uses the template schedule-template.pl, below.

How to get the Symbol Browser Plugin to work in Gedit
Ok, so twice I had to research and figure out how I got the symbol browser working in gedit. I started out trying to install the Class Browser. But the ubuntu community suggested that this plugin was no good and to instead use the symbol browser. If you quickly rush and start downloading the symbol browser plugin, you will find that you just downloaded a whole bunch files that need to be compiled. Lucky for us though, you can instead download the binary files for the symbol browser. Go to SourceForge and instead of clicking on “Download Files”, look below under “Browse Files for Gedit Symbol Browser Plugin” and you should see
gedit-symbol-browser-plugin-bin-ubuntu-i386-0.1.tar.gz
If you are using 64 bit, make sure download the 64 bit binary version.
Extract your files and move it over to ~/.gnome2/gedit. You should have the following files…
~/.gnome2/gedit/symbols
~/.gnome2/gedit/plugins/libsymbolbrowser.so
~/.gnome2/gedit/plugins/symbolbrowser.gedit-plugin
A lot of us will now try and open Gedit and enable the plugin. As you try, it will automatically get grayed out. This is because you need the following package.
libgnomeprintui
Once you restart Gedit and enable the plugin, you might realize that it’s still not displaying any class, functions, or variables after you open a file. This is because you need to install exuberant-ctags. After you do this, you should be ready to go.
Let me know if you have any problems.

Introduction to WebGL
I’m currently taking a computer graphics class and I’ll be spending this semester delving into WebGL. So, I’ll be giving some tutorials as I get new projects to work on.
Setting Up Your Browser To Support WebGL
First do a Google search for “google chrome developer build”, and it should be the first result. Here is the link it took me to.
http://www.google.com/chrome/intl/en/eula_dev.html
Once you have chrome’s developer build, click on [Start->All Programs->Google Chrome] and then right-click on ‘Google Chrome’. Select ‘properties’ and append this to the end of the [Target] string.
--enable-webgl
Here is how my target string looked like.
C:\Users\Chris\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe --enable-webgl
Now open up Chrome by going through [Start->All Programs->Google Chrome] and you should be ready to view WebGL webpages. Click here to test for your self.
Getting Started With WebGL
Here are the three files you need to set up your frist WebGL script.

Cache Problem in CakePHP
I recently had a problem on our website with caching in our CakePHP framework. We initially had caching turned on. And then we started noticing when we submitted a form, our changes wound not be updated until we manually refreshed the page.
So let’s say I have a row of users. I choose to delete one of the users. I click on delete, hit submit and cake removes that user from my table. Cake then redirects me back to same page, but the deleted user is still listed on our page. Once we manually hit the refresh button on our browser, then our deleted user disappears from our form page.
We scratched our heads and tried figuring out why this was happening. We turned off all caching and even added the <cake:nocache> tag. No matter what we did, we could not get rid of the problem.
After much research, we realized that the browser itself was actually caching the previous form page. So we added this snippet of code to our app controller.
$this->disableCache();
This is used to tell the user’s browser not to cache the results of the current request. The headers sent to this effect are:
Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT Last-Modified: [current datetime] GMT Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0 Pragma: no-cache
I hope this saves you some time. If you find a better way fixing this problem, please leave a comment.
