Pigeon's Stuff
This index page is deprecated and out of date. Completeness is not guaranteed. It exists
now merely to avoid breaking existing links. Please refer to the
main index.
Everything in this index is also in the main index, but some stuff in the main index
is not in this index. So if you use this index you're gonna miss out. Man, are you
gonna miss out.
Some people don't seem to read that bit, and carry on using this page.
I'll make it clearer, then:
DO NOT READ THIS PAGE. IT IS CRAP.
READ THE MAIN INDEX INSTEAD.

Design and coding
Electronics design and PIC programming See this page if
you need any electronic design and/or PIC microcontroller programming done. Also
describes a simple parallel-port programmer for 14-bit flash PICs, with software
for Linux or DOS.
Pigeony stuff
Pigeon's nest webcam.
Hourly snapshots from the webcam over
the past 24 hours.
Some photos of my pigeons.

Diflucan (anti-fungal, good for pigeons) Info is about the human
uses of diflucan though; dose for pigeons is 5-15mg/kg every 12-48 hours depending on what they've got.
AFAIK it is available over the counter without need for a prescription.
Motorcycles
The MZ Page A collection of information about two-stroke MZ motorcycles.
LED lighting system for 6 volt motorcycles
Photos
Photo album Mostly landscape, cars and bikes.
Computery stuff
ClockProg for SiS6326 graphics card and SVGATextMode
Conexant ADSL PCI modem driver for Debian - not a
pukka .deb, but a hack of the RedHat driver tarball. I first tried it with Debian Woody (with
backports.org backports) and kernel 2.4.24, then later dist-upgraded to sarge.
YMMV on other combinations.
Setting up Debian woody to boot a root filesystem on LVM. This is
what I did. Recipes for LVM1 / 2.4.x kernels and LVM2 / 2.6.x kernels are included. The information
is still useful for sarge.
Linux 2.6.x kernels, cdrecord and the CyberDrive CW-088D CD writer.
This drive has a bug which stops it working with any 2.6.x kernel, not just kernels < 2.6.10.
Miscellaneous problems and their solutions with Debian sarge.
Includes a section on problems encountered when dist-upgrading Debian woody to sarge.
Odds and sods, mainly engineering-related

Multiple coupled inductors in SPICE - don't forget
to include ALL the coupling coefficients!
Rants
Crap stuff. Things which are done badly through greed,
ignorance or stupidity, and piss me off.
