This is what I get if I click Voicemail

Finally took the plunge and got IPV6 working at home. Thanks to the folks at http://www.tunnelbroker.net/ for the free 6to4 tunnel!

By default, your ssh daemon probably will kick you out after a period of no activity. I like to set the following in sshd_config:

TCPKeepAlive yes
ClientAliveInterval 60

Making good progress on the UtahFM iPhone App. Got a progress bar working so now it spins while music is playing. I’d like to get some more testers but you have to be willing to upgrade to iPhoneOS 3.0beta5.

The About Page:

The deb file I used to use isnt working. But this script does work for compiling netatalk with SSL support so it actually works:


mkdir -p ~/src/netatalk
cd ~/src/netatalk
sudo apt-get install devscripts cracklib2-dev dpkg-dev libssl-dev build-essential
sudo apt-get build-dep netatalk
apt-get source netatalk
cd netatalk-2.0.3
DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=ssl dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
sudo debi

echo "netatalk hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections

So,  I upgraded to iPhone OS 3.0 and want to get the Google Calendar Sync up and running on the new OS.

Search for “iphone google calendar sync” at Google. Not a single link on the first page has the instructions on how to do it. Had to search forever just to find the server name to enter which is “m.google.com”. Sheesh. So I make this blog post so I never have to search again for this.

Fantastic announcement, no howto:

http://googlemobile.blogspot.com/2009/02/google-sync-beta-for-iphone-winmo-and.html

has some great information about the product, but no install instructions:

http://www.google.com/mobile/apple/sync.html

Finally found this after about 10 minutes:

Slack and Bill at worked helped me out with a nice recursive grep search. It is now my favorite:

egrep -irHn <searchterm> <path>

Recent versions of PDAnet are no longer free. PDAnet changed to a $30 pay version as of version 1.40. Here is how to roll back to the old free version:

After installing Google Sync for iPhone, I had a problem that the iPhone Calendar colors did not match the colors of the calendars in Google Calendar.

I am republishing a post by michael.ansel. I found a post by him to be the best way to change calendar colors.

One thing he failed to mention in the following steps is to install sqlite3 which is not installed by default. On your jailbroken iPhone do:

$ apt-get install sqlite3

Then proceed with these steps…
