I got my copy of the UK edition of the latest New Order album “Waiting for the Sirens Call” a few days ago. Mmmm – it’s good.
Lots of echos of the ‘older New Order sound’ ; the Peter Hook bass is very strong in the mix. Many songs sound have hints of New Order of the late 80’s and early 90’s.
I’m off to Chicago next week to see New Order live.
Wow – it’s been hectic – but the combined teams in Provo,UT and Lebanon, NH really cranked and turned this one around.

A working title for a self-help book on ZENworks 
There are some great resources around for ZENworks administrators – from the online documentation, the community based CoolSolutions to Ron Tanners incredible Administrators Guide.
What is really missing is a short guide that describes the business and technology change that can take place with a coherent systems management project; the steps that should be taken; the stakeholders in an organisation; the thought processes behind the technology – all the moving parts that the other books don’t cover.
I spent time in Toronto this week at LinuxWorld – and spent time with Mark Schouls – we both have consulting backgrounds – and both saw the need for such a book.
Who knows – it might yet get written …

I had an interesting situation today where my NetApplet icon just disappeared. I hunted around the gconf panel settings – but no luck.
One quick mail to Guy and the answer came back:
Netapplet is a ‘systray’ application. I suppose you are missing the “Notification Area” applet in your of your panels for Netapplet to show up on your desktop.
If you have not already, simply add a new panel at the top of your desktop. Right-click on the panel “Add to panel > Utility > Notification Area”. Once there, you may need to restart netapplet to get it to show up there.
Working just great now – and shared so others may have a googleable fix.
