刚刚看到这一消息和Sun CEO Jonathan Schwartz的Blog，非常兴奋，Sun终于有了数据库产品，产品线更完善了。

技术上，相信 Mysql 在 Solaris 上的性能会更好，和 ZFS 的协作更紧密。希望更多的人关注SAMP（Solaris/Apache/Mysql/PHP）。

I have a laptop which will run in both office and home, so it will be convenient to use DHCP to get IP dynamically, but I can not access /ws/*, /usr/dist/* anymore which is mounted by automountd/autofs at HOME.

Finally find one way to access auto-mounted directory after tried several methods, following is the step:

1. Run "domainname 'your-domainname'" to set your domainname
2. Find you NIS server IP/name and add the IP/name pair into /etc/hosts
3. Change 'automount files' to 'automount files nis' in /etc/nsswitch.conf
4. Run "ypinit -c" and provide your nis server properly
5. Run "/usr/lib/netsvc/yp/ypbind -ypset" to run ypbind
6. Run "automount -v" to mount those directories.
7. svcadm restart autofs

There is several things which make my blogs display urgly: there is many stroke between text and some special characters will disappear, such as '*', '\'. Today i find the root cause: The evil is the plugins you used,some plugins( will convert some special characters automatically.

You have two way to configure plug-in used:

1. In 'Preference -> Setting' page, you can select the default plug-ins used by all your blog entry by default.
2. You can configure one blog entry's plug-in through the 'Plugins To Apply' under 'Other Settings' at the bottom.

Breif introduction for plug-ins:

• Convert Line Breaks:  Convert plain text paragraphs to html by adding p and br tags. don't use this plug-in before you really know what it is.
• Topic Tags: Expands topic tags for Technorati and similar sites. Topic tags are of the form tag, where topicbookmark is the name of a bookmark whose URL will be used for the site name in the topic tag. If {topicbookmark} is omitted the plugin will use the URL of the Default Topic Site bookmark, if that is defined, otherwise http://www.technorati.com.
• Wikipedia Search Links: Replace link text with a link that performs a wikipedia search. With ! instead of :,creates a "lucky" search, going directly to the first result. With {search text} omitted, uses link text as the value of the search text.
• Google Links : Replace google:"link text"{search text} with a link that performs a google search. With ! instead of :,creates a "I'm feeling lucky" search. With {search text} omitted, uses link text as the value of the search text.
• Textile Formatter: Allows use of Textile formatting to easily generate HTML. See the Textile site.
• Acronyms : Expands acronyms defined in _acronym page. Example: definition 'HTML=Hyper Text Markup Language' becomes HTML. You must create an _acronym page to use Acronyms.
• Bookmark Linker: Automatically uses your Bookmarks to create links. Simply use the Name of a Bookmark and it will be converted into a hyperlink using the Bookmark's URL.
• Email Scrambler: Automatically converts email addresses to me-AT-mail-DOT-com format. Also "scrambles" mailto: links.
• Emoticons : Change ASCII emoticons to graphics. becomes
• Read More Summary: Stops entry after 250 characters and creates a link to the full entry.

Today read one artical about font selection widget in current system and found it is valuable. So abstract some thoughts and put here. For more information, visit here

1) Choose font from very long list, not comfortable for end user.

2) No good preview mechanism

Solution:

1) Font collection:
- Unicode script
- Font style: fixed, sans serif ...

2) List and preview combine

3) Tips and preview combine

This is just a test.
