I have had the same problem with Ubuntu, I just updated to the new copy (well the new ISO i found online) and it seems to work alright now

I figured as much. I’m using ext4 on my new Linux box, so that’s good news, but now I wonder if every tool I use handles the dates correctly. If I use scp or cifs or ftp to move files to that machine, will the dates survive? What about rsync?

I’ll check ‘em out and see what happens!

Ext4 (the latest Linux file system, stable from 2008) supports creation dates. A bit fiddly to access, but it’s there! Should be easy to script as well, depending on what you want to do. http://www.garage4hackers.com/f57/did-you-know-330-2.html#post3951

Also, I’m not sure if it will transfer to Apple file systems.

I have had no problems with my shuttle as of yet, although its in a box right now waiting to be set up as a file server. Also on the desoldering the desoldering braid works so much better then the “sucker” thing that they sell (I never could get it to work!). I have enjoyed your blog so I am happy to see you back up and running!

Great stuff here! Thanks for the script Tad!

Reading the comments above I see a few people looking for the ability to integrate ScanSnap with FileMaker. Our company has a solution that we’d like to have a few people test for us. If you’re interested please visit our site (http://www.fullcityconsulting.com) and fill out the contact us form. I’ll follow up with you via email. Thanks!

Comment on A slick fix for an annoying problem with my Traveler Guitar by Edwa

Nice fix! I wonder if it would work for the top side. I’ve been thinking of purchasing an Escape MKII but for a similar issue. That being I fingerpick and can’t find a place to comfortably anchor my pinky. A velcroed cover over the top of the tuner cavity would work if its not too springy.

If memory serves, the K45 case should take a standard ITX motherboard, so you should be able to just drop another one in.

However, I’m lusting after the Lian Li PC-Q25.

Hi and thanks!
I use mpd on a homemade networked music server, using a router running openwrt as the embedded device. This little program solved a problem for me perfectly! I am yet to dive deeper into it, but so far it has been an elegant way to transpose my subscribed podcasts into an m3u format for mpd to play. Just need to automate it to update every night now. Better go and read the manual! thanks again.

Converting to Paperless office. Bought Neatworks – software blows… I’m going to use filemaker instead. What would an OCR workflow look like with the above script and fielmaker. At what point can the file inserted into filemaker as a record.. can it be automated as an add-on to your script?
