I was looking into custom WordPress theme tutorials when a friend of mine pointed out this tutorial. It is very well written and covers the following topics:

• Creating a Theme HTML Structure
• Template and Directory Structure
• The Header Template
• The Index Template
• The Single Post, Post Attachment, & 404 Templates
• The Comments Template
• The Search Template & The Page Template
• The Archive, Author, Category & Tags Template
• The Sidebar Template
• Reset-Rebuild Theme CSS & Define Your Layouts

Quite complete, and definitely enough to get started in developing your own WordPress themes.

In SPSS you can program datasets in the SPSS syntax language. Unfortunately a lot of people working with SPSS do not really know how to use these syntax commands. A common way of using syntax is just do a “copy/paste” but barely knowing what the code really does. In order to solve this issue these series of SPSS syntax tutorials show, and explain how SPSS syntax can be used.

This tutorial is about how to define multiline comments, numeric and string variables in SPSS syntax code.

When I started to use my HP Color LaserJet CM1312 MFP it turned out that manual duplex printing was not exactly working. Page 1 had page 7 on the back etc. The problem was that the printer prints its pages in opposite direction, starting with the last page. I spend lots of time seaching for a solution. I found this website, which descibes how to change your printer driver in order to print from 1 to n. Here are the steps you need to do…

Next semester I need to code some programs for MINIX 3. Since I do not want to install this operating system on one of my machines I decided to use VMWare. The VMWare Player is free, and can be easily installed on Linux. At least that is what I thought…

I have three computers: MacBook Pro, Netbook and a PC. They all have their own data. It would be very nice if I had all my files on just one location (e.g. my server). The only problem is: how do I access these files in a secure way. SSH is an option, but does not quite fit my needs. The solution: NFS over a VPN. NFS fulfilled all my needs, but I do not want to open NFS to whole world through my router.

A VPN, gives me access to my home network and makes it possible for me to access all my files in a secure way. My server (an Asus EEE Box) runs Ubuntu Server, and there is a Linux version of OpenVPN! I thought installing OpenVPN should not be that hard; I just need to find the right tutorial.

As posted here I recently bought a Samsung NC10. It comes with Windows XP preinstalled, but I liked to have Kubuntu 8.10 installed as well. The Samsung NC10 is equipped with a 160GB harddisk so there is plenty of space (at least for me). So I started to figure out how I could install Kubuntu 8.10 on a netbook with no cd- nor dvd-drive. In this post I describe how I managed to solve these problems.

I am using voipbusterpro as my default voip provider. They offer a SIP service which makes it possible to call with any SIP device (both soft- and hardware) you want. Recently I bought a Nokia E51 which has wifi. I wanted to make SIP phone calls over any arbitrary wifi connections with my voipbusterpro account. The only problem was setting the right settings. After a long period of trial and error I figured out the right settings.

This post shows a brief tutorial about the settings needed to setup your Nokia E51  with a Betamax account. Betamax uses a tremendous amount of  different names like: 12Voip, BudgetSIP, Calleasy, DarmowyTelefon, Dialnow, Freecall, Hungarytopup, Internetcalls, Intervoip, JustVoip, LeVoip, LowRateVoip, NetAppel.fr, Nonoh, SmsListo, SparVoip, VoipBuster, VoipBusterPro, VoipCheap, VoipDiscount, Voiphit, VoipRaider, VoipStunt, VoipWise and WebCallDirect…
