Ted Talks Subtitles Downloader

As my mother tongue is not english, I’ve been always appreciative of things like Ted Translations, because it allows me to share my findings on the web with people from my country, where not everybody is as fluent in english as to hear and understand every word of a TED Talk. But I’ve found annoying that you could watch the video with subtitles online, but you couldn’t download them in a appropriate format (I generally use the ‘.srt’ format).

I did some research, created a python script that lets you download the subtitles, and parse them from JSON to the ‘.srt’ format; but in these days a black-and-white command-line script is not acceptable. So I made it my first web-app, a TED Talk Subtitle Downloader.

SiS M671/M672 driver for xorg xserver 7.5 on Debian / Sidux

I had problems when I did a dist-upgrade about two weeks ago on my Sidux installation (it’s pretty much debian sid with a twist).

In the ubuntu forums, I found that someone had the same install that I have, and took the source that he compiled and tried to make it work on my laptop.

The error message I got was `undefined Symbol: resVgaIoShared` and apparently it was because the driver used a deprecated function of xorg.
