I have asa916.bin file. So I need to extract it into initrd and kernel files. Could anyone help to do this or give a reference of guide?
I doesn’t really matter the version of ASA. I just want to know a universal way how to do this.
With arrival of Virtual ASA Images, there isn't much demand to hack ASA images and make them work with GNS3. Better option is to use ASAv Image in GNS3 for learning if you have access to one. If not, then VIRL is your next best option.

My intentions:
Actually, I intend to:
implement vehicles as containers
simulate/move these containers on the .osm maps-based roads
My viewpoint about the problem:
I have loaded the XML-based .osm file and processed it in python using xml.dom. But I am not satisfied with the performance of loading the .osm file because later on, I will have to add/create more vehicles as containers that will be simulated onto the same road.
Suggestions needed:
This is my first time to solve a problem related to maps. In fact, I need suggestions on how to proceed by keeping in mind, the performance/efficiency, with this set of requirements. Suggestions in terms of implementation will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Simulating lots of vehicles by running lots of docker containers in parallel might work I suppose. Maybeyou're initialising the same image with different start locations etc passed in as ENV vars? As a practical way of doing agent simulations this sounds a bit over-engineered to me, but as an interesting docker experiment it might make sense.
Maybe you'll need a central thing for holding and sharing the state (positions of other vehicles) and serving that back to the multiple agents.
The challenge of loading an .osm file into some sort of database or internal map representation doesn't seem like the hardest part, and because it may be done once on initialisation and imagine it's not the most performance critical part of this.
I'm thinking you'll probably want to do "routing" through the road network (taking account of one ways etc?), giving your agents a purposeful path to follow to a destination. This will get more complicated if you want to model interactions with other agents e.g. you might want to model getting stuck in traffic because other agents are going the same way, and even decisions to re-route because of traffic, so you may want quite a flexible routing system, perhaps self-coded.
But there's lots of open source routing systems which work with OSM data, to at least draw inspiration from. See this list: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Routing#Developers
Popular choices like OSRM are designed to scale up to country size or even global openstreetmap data, but I imagine that's overkill for you (you're probably looking at simulating within a city road network?). Even so. Probably easy enough to get working in a docker container.
Or you might find something lightweight like the code of the JOSM routing plugin easier to embed in your docker image and customize (although I see that's using a library called "JGraphT")
Then working backwards from a calculated route you can calculate interpolated steps along that path which will allow you to make your simulated agents take a step on each iteration (simulated movement)
Do you know if there are unchangeable EXIF datas ?
In my case i want to know the real date of creation of a jpeg image. So I thought the EXIF's datas was the best way but I realized that with a software like XnView you can change it. So there is any way i can now the real date of the creation of an image ?
In another hand, is it possible to know if a EXIF datas has been modified ?
Thx fo all,
And sorry for my bad english
Have a good day !
:)
In principle, it is not possible to be sure the data hasn't been edited, although it may take a great deal of skill to do so indetectably. Some of the major camera makers (Canon and Nikon, possibly others) offer an "image authentication" feature in their pro model cameras which is designed to make it impossible to modify the image after it has been taken. They do this for the benefit of people doing legal work - evidence shots and the like. To use this, you have to switch it on (via the camera settings) before you take the picture. Even with these though, it is still possible to alter the data: both the Canon and Nikon authentication systems have been cracked (presumably with considerable difficulty).
As for normal pictures, yes, these are very easy to alter. However many (most?) programs which can edit EXIF data leave their own signs. For example, Adobe Photoshop always adds its own name somewhere in the EXIF, apparently whether you want it to or not. You can see this with many different EXIF viewers, especially with the more advanced ones like PhotoME. (Which, sadly, is no longer maintained.)
Short answer: yes, it is always possible to exit EXIF, and almost always possible to do it indetectably, but it may requite the right tools and quite a lot of skill. You can't ever be certain it has not been done.
I am trying to create an amazon webstore and the interface is just appalling.
I have seen a few companies that have made really decent stores but have no idea how they have accomplished this using the interface amazon give you as they make it near on impossible to customise a single thing.
Could someone please shed a light on what it is I need to do to create a fully customised design for my store?
Thanks in advance.
I have had luck in creating a custom layout... functionality is where I'm stuck. It seems we are FORCED to use their widgets, etc... though you can change the look of them quite easily.
I made my way by using Google Chrome's inspect element tool (F12). I was able to find the CSS that drives the different widgets for width, height, etc. Also, I was able to write my own CSS for, say, the search widget.
Your question is about 1.5 months old... so I assume you may have learned your way by now.
If you have any questions, I'd be happy to assist with what I know.
I am working on a project where I need to run Google chromium over Linux FrameBuffer, I need to run it without any windowing system dependency ( It should draw on the buffer we provide it to draw, this will make its porting to any embedded system very easy) , I do not need its multi-tab GUI, I just need its renderer window in the buffer, has any body ever tried this? Any help on what approach should I use for this?
If you need to have some direct control of the window functions, or want to poke around in the DOM data, then the right way to solve this problem is to probably look at embedding webkit directly. This will be much faster and cleaner than what I am about to suggest.
Now, let's suppose you don't need all that fancy control and that you are really lazy. An ancient, low tech solution to your problem could be to create a virtual frame buffer and then read its contents directly. To do this, you can set up xvfb on your server:
http://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.6/doc/man/man1/Xvfb.1.xhtml
xvfb is an old unix tool that lets you create a virtual x-server with whatever type of configuration you want. More importantly, it can be configured to write the contents of its X server's screen directly to a memory mapped file! You can also set it up to use shared memory, which is a bit faster though also more complicated.
I guess you will have better luck with uzbl and GTK/DirectFB. Same engine, and works with javascripts. For the facebook chat issue, I think you just have to change the user-agent string.
There is the Origyn Web Browser, which is supposed to be an embedded WebKit-based browser that looks portable and does not depend on "heavy" libraries (like GTK). Their web page is http://www.sand-labs.org/owb but it looks like their database crashed, which is a little worrying maybe.
try to port webkit engine to the netsurf framebuffer-based code.
HTH
You could buy one of the remaining 10 (or so) OGD1 boards.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Graphics_Project
Then you can talk directly to hardware using libpci.
However you will still need code that draws a picture into a memory buffer.
I realize this answer is more a shameless plug.
But people who are interested in your question might want such a board.
I already have a board like this and it would help a lot if it got more exposure.
This project:
http://code.google.com/p/wkhtmltopdf/
Achieves that. It runs Webkit on a virtual display and captures the rendered output in form of PDF. You can customize that do do something else.
OR you can create a display with tigthvnc, and set DISPLAY variable so that Chrome renders in that display.
I suggest using the webkit2pdf package (which is available for many different Linux distributions). Then use fbgs which is a wrapper for the fbi frame buffer program, that displays PDF files right on the frame buffer.
I need to program a util for a 3d model. What i need to do is pass the 3d model to the util and have it extract multiple information. Things like poly count, size/scale (if applicable) and anything else i can grab. Then i need to take a screen shot of the model 8 times (45deg from 0 to 360). Maybe 16. Is there an app that i can use to extract data from the model and is there another app i can use to create the image? if so i can write a php script to do this all for me :) if not i'll post more question about specifics.
My OS is debian etch
the models will be any format. I may make it 3ds only or limit it to what the app(s) support. Or i may have another app to convert one format to the other and extract the data from that format.
I haven't tried this, but you could try 3ds2pov to convert your 3DS files into POV-Ray format, and then render with POV-Ray.
The 3ds2pov program is quite old, so I don't know how compatible it is with current 3DS files. The archive comes with source code so ought to build without too much difficulty on Debian.
POV-Ray itself runs easily on Linux.
nb: other 3DS to POV converters may exist. This one just happens to be the first one returned by Googling for "3ds to pov".
Your requirements are very loose and vague but most 3d engines should have the tools you need to create your custom utility. I would start by looking at Blender or the viewer tools from OGRE, OpensceneGraph and similar tools.
You can try this: Linux based A3dsViewer -> does 3ds to pov conversion.
