Parallels Desktop and Lion
It seems Parallels it is not supporting any MacOSX Lion Upgrades for their Desktop Solution version 10.5 encouraging (or I better say "forcing" ) their customers to upgrade to 10.6 as a solution because they claim this is the way to go for Lion.
Also seems there is a "Launcher" for 10.6 which is basically a quick patch which solves all the given issues, but what it was never told, that launcher also works on 10.5. As my own system can demonstrate.
The following should help to start your VMs.

The the file, as modified with the memory fix for Linux at the following link:
nmon2rrd.c
More information in relation with the Original Development is coming from IBM:
Nmon at IBM
And NMON as a development is now hosted at sourceforge
NMON at sourceforge
This is a simple adaptation of the Original code with the purpose of plotting the Memory Status for Linux.

Advent 4211-B repairing Broken Screen
Hi,
This is how I replaced a cracked screen for the Advent4211-B:
Image below shown a crack on top of the screen which, in time, it was extending along both sides of the screen.
Take note of the manufacturer of the screen. Was a little bit hard to find the appropriate screen for this netbook.
The laptop is fairly easy to open.
You only need a standard Phillips screwdriver.
The screws are located on shown below on the back of the computer:

Mac Mini Intel 2.0- Bluetooth issue
I realized sometimes the MacMini get its bluetooth device disable for not reason, being impossible to enable it back.
What it looks like the issue is temperature and the internal system fan too slow to properly cool down the box.
I found out the following application smcFanControl which looks like doing the trick, increasing the fan speed , therefore the bluetooth device is present (almost always).
It really improved the system
Thanks
Gonza

Mental pain
lack of recognition
hard words
reversing into inhibition
Power granted
mental exultation
cruel gifted
punisher without discrimination.
Childish behaviour
never grown up
pretensious weakness
another trick you want me to buy.
sad.
thanks.
Gonza.
