How to recover calendars from a OwnCloud database dump. I had to recover someone’s calendars from an OwnCloud SQL dump. I will detail the steps I went through in this post. Export CalDav calendar from SQL dump To explore a large SQL file, here my_database_dump.sql, it is easier to import it as a new database rather than exploring the text file. Here I am using PostgreSQL but it should also work with MySQL or MariaDB. 1 2 sudo -u postgres createdb owncloud_backup sudo -u postgres psql owncloud_backup < my_database_dump....

This article details how to display Unifi access points metrics on a Grafana Worldmap. I have been working on deploying and setting up a new monitoring stack for Crans network organisation. We switched from Munin and Icinga2 to Prometheus paired with Grafana dashboards. Using Prometheus SNMP1 exporter, this new monitoring stack can collect metrics from all of our Unifi WiFi access point. This article describes a minimal setup that display Unifi metrics onto a Grafana Worldmap panel. What components will be used Unifi Controller: the official controller to provision and monitor Unifi access points, Prometheus: time-series database, Prometheus SNMP exporter: a Prometheus exporter collecting metrics from SNMP, Grafana: a tool to create dashboards to analyse Prometheus metrics....

On the design of BlobbyFish, a Flappy Bird clone in VHDL. Blobbyfish was implemented for a VHDL academic course project in 8 hours. It is based on Flappy Bird but a little bit simplified for the purpose. This is a team project made with Otthorn. It was a great project to start coding in VHDL and explore all main concepts. Please note that this was implemented for the Digilent Basys 2 using Xilinx ISE. All the code is available there under the GPLv3 license: https://github....

Let's analyse and replicate Dell OEM modifications made to Ubuntu on Dell G3 3779. This guide assumes you have a freshly-installed Ubuntu 18.04 installed on your Dell G3. Following the following steps will recreate the configuration that Dell ships on Ubuntu-preinstalled G3 laptops. WARNING: THESE STEPS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS”, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. If you lose your data, brick your device, any other damage or anything else happens (e.g. your cat eats your dog), it is YOUR PROBLEM and YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. You have to make sure to get a recovery disk before making these changes....
