Interesting chat with BakaBot and a stranger.

Easiest way to reset mysql server password.

I was almost going to give up on resetting mysql password, even the ones mentioned on mysql page did not work due to security policies and mysqld_safe would just not start working :/ bleh! Until I found the other way round :) thanks to some Debian goodness -

sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.0

That's all :)

FlashLearner 0.1 on Maemo

Another abandoned project which I don't see reaching finishing point in near future. Was playing around with PyGame and Maemo SDK very shortly after foss.in. Grab the source here -
http://github.com/ideamonk/FlashLearner/

Its a basic flash card app that should turn your n900 into a flash card :D



The patience to install maemo sdk is there no more, but the good part is that its a normal PyGame program which can go where ever goes python+pymage support.
