Tim Small's web server

Not much here yet. In the future there may be things like layout, and navigation. Back in the mid 1990s, most web pages looked a bit like this (e.g. Yahoo).

At the moment, I'm busy working on my eternal building site, and flat, and don't have much time to update this page. When I have finished I should have some more time to add more content too.

If you are interested, you can also have a look at my personal C.V. (Resume) although it is currently slightly out of date.

Things that I have found the time to do include:

A memory controller ECC status kernel module for the Intel/Radisys 82600 embedded x86 chipset, as part of the Linux EDAC (Error Detection and Correction) project - formerly called "bluesmoke". If you want ECC status reporting for your Linux box, have a look at the Wiki and SourceForge pages. The EDAC bugzilla is also hosted on this server.
Minor work on the Linux driver for Atmel AT76c503a based 802.11b adaptors
Some (incomplete) efforts to get support for my Texas Instruments PCI1031 based PCMCIA <-> PCI bridge into the Linux kernel. Note this patch against 2.4.20 isn't finished yet, but Works For Me (tm)
Work on the DIY Zoning project to get my flat's radiators under control (other people might prefer to go out any buy a few single room thermostats and timers)
A howto for setting up IPMI, and Serial Over LAN support on Linux (Debian/Sarge) - it is specifically aimed at the Intel SR2300 and SE7501WV2 server motherboards, but is likely to be widely applicable to other boards which implement IPMI.
Howto add a DVI output to Some IBM Thinkcentres, which appear to have knobbled AGP slots
A bit of work on a Debian package for DSPAM
I've built myself some very high power (LumiLEDS Luxeon-III based) cycle lights. I decided to set up a wiki about it.

All of my current photo albums (actually, to be honest, I don't seem to have the time to keep these very current)..

The images are available in three sizes - click the image to view the next size up....

Now Reading

The Backroom Boys: The Secret Return of the British Boffin - Francis Spufford

Seems extremely well written so far - highly recommended

Just Read

The Consolations of Philosophy - Alain de Botton

Pretty good book, some excellent insights, good for people like me who are too lazy to read philosophy by the greats themselves...

Other People, and Projects

An extremely fine sculptor, and friend of mine has - understandably given his name - been having trouble getting a reasonable index rank for his web site - in an effort to help, - here you will find some pictures of the sculpture, and other stone work (e.g lettering) of Will Spankie.
