This subject is complex. If you expect simple answers, go and find them somewhere else.
As I have known before, I have been misunderstood in many ways with my last post. Therefore I would like to do a small analysis on my criticism and some additions to get the most important points clearer and finally I would like to ask why I have been misunderstood. Hopefully this will be enlightening.

It is time again. After the growing number of projects of Google Sommer of Code during the last years Google spends more money than ever to support open source. After having read articles, mostly blogs, about the success stories, new members of the community and the great support of open-source through Google, I have always missed one point. I haven't found a bit of criticism.

Example to add blogging capabilities to your app:

Blog* myblog = new KBlog::WordpressBuggy("http://example.com/xmlrpc/gateway.php");
myblog->setUsername( "some_user_id" );
myblog->setPassword( "YoURFunnyPAsSwoRD" );
myblog->setBlogId( "1" ); // can be caught by listBlogs()
KBlog::BlogPost *post = new BlogPost();
post->setTitle( "This is the title." );

Despite having fixed my buggy samsung dvd drive's firmware, i still get softlockups from time to time (in an average of ~4 hours runtime). I get them with the drive removed and on my other machine with a completely different hardware, but being debian testing as well, too. But then my server running testing as well, has never had that issue. I don't know where the problem is and haven't had time to investigate. I hope it is some kernel bug fixed in 2.6.24, but maybe somebody else could point me to some help.

EDIT: I have fixed some of the most obvious bugs in alpha1 and have released alpha2 for that reason now.

I hope that many issues of the past are fixed now. There are still some to go. Have a look for it here.
Cheers,

EDIT: LiveJournal works now.
EDIT2: KBlogger creates (hardcoded 240xSCALED) thumbnails for images now.
EDIT3: KBlogger disables media stuff for Blogger1 and GData now.
EDIT4: Thanks to Milian I have replaced the hack by a tag, so the preview should load external dependencies sanely now.

Today I have got my Hama BSH-240 bluetooth headset. I was really looking forward to it, since my cable headsets have never keeped up for more than two months.
With my E61 Symbian S60 smartphone, which is really great in general, i have a wikipedia snapshot always with me, doom installed, wlan, khtml/webgkit nokia browser and all the stuff preinstalled... I wanted to replace the need of an additional media player since i have a 2gb mini sd card and plenty of space left. I even have a card reader in my laptop, so copying (once i get it working again) is a breeze.

I have reinstalled Debian testing a week ago. I have used sid before and it worked great, but a) i have accidentially formatted the disks for /usr and /var too small b) i have messed with the setup c) i haven't used lvm for the disk and d) i couldn't encrypt swap easily. So I reinstalled Debian, which was straightforward with the netdisk installer and luks encryption for the whole disk adding lvm on top of it. I have used ext3 for all partitions, since it has support for resizing and is best supported for linux. I will *never* do partitioning again and will always use lvm in the future.

EDIT: Having the system running for over 9 hours now and no issues, I would say that it is definetly fixed with a firmware update!!! I try to make it a bit more clear how to do it...

EDIT: Disabling TV-out as mentioned here has not helped eiter:
Option "monitor-TV" "TV" # in the video device section, plus:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "TV"
Option "Ignore" "True"
EndSection
EDIT
I've got a weird problem with plasma (Rev. 754825 [kdebase]) on my external display. The panel is positioned on the external display at the same bottom position like on the internal display (1280x800) of my laptop (i965), but I can put applications on the whole screen.
