		<title>How To: Configure Any Remote Control With LIRC</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My LIRC / remote control adventures continue (see the two previous posts). I bought a StreamZap, and configured a .lircrc file to control Banshee, the mouse pointer, and the screensaver on my computer, to allow listening of music from across the room.

		<title>How To: Control The Mouse Pointer With A Remote Control</title>

The Setup
Refer to my previous post for details on how to select a remote, basic lirc installation &#038; setup, etc. For the sake of this tutorial, you can install lirc and [...]]]></description>

		<title>How To: Use A Remote Control To Control Banshee</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Banshee is a popular media player for Linux. This tutorial walks through configuring a remote control to control Banshee while AFK; for convenience, I&#8217;ll assume that you&#8217;re using Ubuntu 9.10, but most of the tutorial is generally applicable.
If you&#8217;re generally interested in using LIRC or xautomation with Gnome, this will be useful to you.
The Hardware

		<title>Script To Find SCSI Bus Id</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Despite Linus&#8217; assertion that the concept of SCSI Ids is "f*cking idiotic", sometimes they&#8217;re necessary. For example, sometimes the following will work to recover an Offlined device:

    echo "scsi remove-single-device 99 0 3 0" > /proc/scsi/scsi
    echo "scsi add-single-device 99 0 3 0" > /proc/scsi/scsi

		<title>How To: Locally Mirror A Site With Youtube Content</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Problem
Let&#8217;s say that you need to copy a website to a CD so that it can be used offline. Of course, wget takes care of html pages and images for you:

wget -m -k -K -E http://www.mysite.com

		<title>How To: Rip Your CDs (For The Lazy Geek)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When was the last time you listened to a CD? That&#8217;s right, years ago. And yet you probably have a couple racks full of the suckers wasting space in your living room.
