Several years ago I made some hacks on the palm. One of the things at that time was a workshopI organized around Palm coding Swedish only). All the info and tools I collected at that time(specifically the links on the workshop page) are now all outdated. Through my company, YellowOrb I just got a customer who wanted a Palm program so I had to look for it all again. Here is what I have found so far regarding open-source developments tools for Palm.
The prc-tools project at SourceForge is the compiler to use. It used to be the old gcc tools for Palm development but have got much further now.
For building GUIs I have not yet find a really good and free tool. Visual Form Designer was nice to work with but was shareware, the free version is to limited. piBuilder is free but is not as easy to work with. PilotMag in another option but also is shareware.

Bluetooth ersätter kabel beskriver på svenska hur blåtand fungerar. Kan vara bra om man vill hacka ihop något blåtandigt framöver.

IIS.se, PTS och KO har släppt en ny intressant version av TPTEST – TPTEST Statistik. Detta program utför bandbreddstester på din förbindelse med jämna mellanrum och sedan laddar upp resultaten till www.tptest.se så man kan jämföra med andra kunder in samma nät. Jag fick bekräftat att det inte står så bra till med min Scream-förbindelse. Jag ligger lite över 2.5Mbit/s medans den med lägst prestande förrutom mig ligger på 4Mbit/s och då har jag sett till att verkligen inget annat ligger och tar bandbredd.
Dock stämmer detta inte helt med mina egna mätningar. T.ex. så får TPTEST statistik min upplänk till maximalt 0.63 Mbit/s medans jag själv kan mäta upp 0.83 Mbit/s som stämmer bra överens med den information jag kan hämta ut ur modemet just nu: Speed (Kbit/sec) 832 up / 6016 down

So I have been fiddling around a bit more with my SpeedTouch 510 ADSL modem. I wanted to be able to access the internal webserver in it from my machines on the inside, i.e. those behind the firewall. The modem is on the outside. The IP of the modem is 10.0.0.138 which also makes it a bit problematic since it is not routed normally.
To start with I gave my outside network-card one more ip number, 10.0.0.1 so it would be on the same net as the modem:
ifconfig vr0 alias 10.0.0.1
vr0 is the name of my outside network interface.
Then I had to tell my firewall not to deny those packets since normally 10.0.0.0 and 192.168.0.0-nets are not routed:
add allow all from any to 10.0.0.138 via ${oif}<br />
add allow all from 10.0.0.138 to 192.168.0.0/16 via ${oif}<br />
add allow all from 10.0.0.138 to 10.0.0.0/8 via ${oif}
This allowed me to telnet into the modem as well as access the webpages from my firewall machine but I wanted to use the machines that had ip like 192.168.0.3 to access teh webserver as well. The problem is that the modem doesnt know where these machines are so I had to tell it where to route traffic for the 192.168.0.0 net.
ip rtadd dst=192.168.0.0/16 gateway=10.0.0.1
So now it works when the modem sends the traffic to my firwall that routes it correctly to my PC and such.

I have had the intention to learn Perl for several years but have never really had a good project or a good book to start with but now I seem to have both! I just found the Picking Up Perl online book and read the first chapters and it seems to very quickly introduce the basic concepts of Perl. So now its just to get started with the project, to extract some intersting data from my ADSL Modem and plot that using MRTG.
