Gnawing through the straps
Just another Wizblogs weblog
End of the cross-posting ?
Oct 14th
Well, it seems the live-journal cross-poster doesn’t work so well with nextgen gallery.
I had to go over to livejournal and hand edit the last post make it sane, which isn’t going to help in the long-term. This might be the last cross-posted entry for the time being whilst I search for a solution.
Just a bit miffed

I bought a new Mac Pro and with it a LaCie eSATA card so I could connect a SATA Dock to allow hot-swapping of backup drives,
But, guess what, the drivers aren’t compatible with Snow Leopard despite the pretty product page stating “v10.4.5 or later”.
So, I query LaCie support who manage the the entirely lame
We are aware of compatibility issues with the LaCie eSATA PCI Express Card and Snow Leopard. At this time the latest update available is from 07 Jul 2008 and no current ETA as to when an update will be made available.
And then rather disingenuously suggest rebooting might be required.
All they need now is to suggest turning it off and on again and this bingo card is full.
Winter migration
Oct 12th
and that’s the blog migrated to a new host and different picture gallery plugin.
I’ve corrected image links on this year’s posts over on livejournal, but the older ones will have to stay broken for the time being.
And now an edit to see if the cross-posting works again.
I never knew that

PC World reveal the hidden feature of the iMac. 7 hours battery life ! Must try pulling the mains lead out and seeing what condition the batteries are on mine.
