Healthy Nudelauflauf – Mmhh

04 Feb

Today, I’m about to cook something I haven’t cooked in quite a while. It’s called Gesunder Nudelauflauf (in German – Healthy Pasta Casserole), or better, I just called it that because I couldn’t come up with a better name. This is mainly for my own reference, but I thought, I’d share it.

Ingredients:

  1. Carrots (~3-4)
  2. Broccoli (1)
  3. Coliflower (1/2)
  4. Pasta (Pene) (500g)
  5. Tomatoes (2-3)
  6. Feta Cheese (1 pack ~250g)
  7. Grated Cheese (~200g)
  8. Flower (1 tbsp)
  9. Water
  10. Milk (to liking, ~50ml)



The order of making things you can optimise to use the least amount of time.

  1. Boil ~1/2 pot of water put (carrots in first) vegetables cut into pieces. Boil for ~10-15 minutes, depending on whether you want them soft or on the hard side. Add Chicken stock or similar or salt and pepper to liking. Important: keep water content as low as possible and do not get rid of the water after.
  2. Make a “Schwitze” (roux): put some flour (1 tbsp initially) and butter (1 tbsp) into a small pot (preferable) or pan, wait until golden brown, add water from boiled vegetables (to keep the nutrients), add milk until you have a thick soup.
  3. Boil pasta until al dente with salt to liking.
  4. After vegetables are ready, put them into a casserole dish, put unboiled tomatoes and feta cut into pieces over. Add pasta and finish with the “Schwitze” on top. Add grated cheese on top.
  5. Put into oven at 200 degrees (centigrade) for 30-45 minutes (check).




Voila! You should have made a reasonably healthy pasta casserole. Please comment if it works out well. :-)

jQuery Plugin – Image Radio buttons

12 Oct

At work I’ve written this jQuery plugin. It’s only 2KB big and turns your normal radio buttons into images, you can set any images you like for src, checked and hover. Simply attach the configuration to your html input field as the class attribute as a JavaScript like object. I know you might want to attach a class to your radio buttons, but this is how far it currently is.

Here an example:

Get the JavaScript code
Get the HTML/JavaScript code

Edit: Just found this which seems to make this plugin obsolete. :-( Wish I would have found this earlier…

Ubuntu on Asus N53S(V)

08 Oct

To install Ubuntu with a working NVIDIA card on this laptop. Follow these instructions:

  1. Follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Asus_N53
  2. Add this to your modules blacklist in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf: 
    blacklist nouveau
blacklist fbcon
blacklist vga16fb
  3. Run 3D Graphics intensive applications like Google Earth with 
    optirun google-earth
  4. Optional: Mount Windows NTFS partition in /etc/fstab: 
    /dev/sda5       /d      ntfs    noexec,nosuid   0       0

Edit: You might not need to add the blacklist. I’ve just setup 11.04 64 bit and did not black list the drivers and it works! Remember to NOT enable the additional drivers in this setup because it will override your Intel Drivers, which are good because you can still run 3D apps but with less power consumption.

How to backup Windows XP/7 partition with Linux (Ubuntu)

23 Aug

To backup any partition of any file system type with Linux, you can simply run the following command:

dd if=<input_partition> of=&<output_file> bs=<byte_count>

where

<input_partition>:= is the partition you want to backup (this can also be a file if you want to do the reverse). So, e.g. /dev/sda1 for the first partition on the first drive (hence a=drive 1, 1=partition 1, b=drive 2, …).

<output_file> := is the file you want to write the partition to (this can also be the output partition on restore).

<byte_count> := is the size of your file system’s clusters, normally 4096.

dd if=/dev/sda2 of=/d/sda2_partition bs=4096 #for my own reference
tar cvfz sda2_partition.tar.gz sda2_partition # own reference



You can then compress the file using a normal archiver and save a lot of space that way, because dd constructs a file as big as the partition because it reads bit by bit or 4096 bytes multiple times.

Howto: Solving problem with logrotate

25 Dec 
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
 
error: error running shared postrotate script for /var/log/mysql.log
/var/log/mysql/mysql.log /var/log/mysql/mysql-slow.log
 
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate exited with return code 1

Have you been getting this cryptic error message before?

Here is how to get rid of it:

View /etc/mysql/debian.cnf. Look for

user     = debian-sys-maint
password = newpass

Log into mysql as root

mysql -uroot -p
SET PASSWORD FOR `debian-sys-maint`@`localhost` = PASSWORD('newpass');
SET PASSWORD FOR `debian-sys-maint`@`%` = PASSWORD('newpass');
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Log out and it should be fixed.
