Nokia Lumia 920 photo challenge begins...

Nokia Lumia 920 photo challenge begins...i see it coming!



The phone actually uses the light for focusing instead of flashing the picture, after that it applies a 'fix' 'as is' to the picture itself, that's what makes pictures so great even in the dark. It's very impressive.

iPhone 5 vs iPhone 4 booting and comparison

,

The video shows an iPhone 5 compared to the 4S, and confirms everything we already know about the new iPhone, and more. According to the source this is a prototype, and was allegedly "discovered" out of production for a photoshoot and video of it booting (as well as the comparisons to the 4S) by a "friend" of someone who works at the Jincheng, Foxconn plant in China’s northern Shanxi province.



 Although the device seems to be slower than a Nokia Lumia,  it's also quite plain to see that the home button does in fact appear to sit a little deeper than that of the iPhone 4 variants; of course all of this will be confirmed in just under a week when Apple will announce the device, which is yet to be named.

The source added that each worker at the Jincheng factory needs to complete up to 3,000 iPhone 5 back panels every night since mass production commenced.

Apache start problem: Unable to open logs

,
Apache gave a friend some trouble the other night and i thought of sharing after fixing...
He gave me SSH and asked me to check what's going on.

service apache2 start
Unable to open logs.

After i ran through /var/logs i couldn't find apache2 directory.
Went back to apache2.conf to check if CustomLog command was given but the default value was there.
I simply created /var/logs/apache2 directory with write permisson and the problem was fixed.

mkdir /var/logs/apache2 |chmod 755 /var/logs/apache2

cheers!
