Gettting rid of the interrupt table on the AVR
Posted by coldtobi | 20 Jul, 2007, 10:52Sometimes, programm size is everthing. This is especially true, if you are coding for a very constraint system like the AVR or you are going to write a bootloader, which should be as small as possible.
Well, I actually hit both of the categories, as I program a bootloader for a customer's project for a 8k-flash Atmel.

Windows Vista Licensing
Posted by coldtobi | 10 Jul, 2007, 01:15Yesterday, my Laptop suddenly died. Something with the power supply on the mainboard. I spent half the evening disassembling and finding the bug, but it seems deep in the power supply part of the mainboard. Well, that's off topic.
As I currently *really* need a laptop, I hit the store today and left it with a brand new Acre Aspire 5633. This is a really nice machine, and I think you gonna read more about it later, especially about the debian installation i plan.
Debian. Yes, I I do not plan to use - or even boot - the preinstalled "windows vista home premium", therfore I am planning to sell it. But it is an OEM, which should be not ap problem, as selling this is something Microsoft cannot forbid me, even if they'd love to do: The tried it already to forbid with XP, but the courts ruled that Microsoft is not allowed to forbid selling it.
