I spend a good bit of time reading CVEs but their entries are plain text, without links associated with their various recorded URLs. I’m annoyed at having to select/paste to load a URL, so I had to go code a work-around. :)
Since MozDev‘s “linkify.user.js” was a bit heavy-handed, I wrote up a quick hack based on similar code to only look at mitre.org’s LI tags: “cve-links.user.js“.

Linden Labs released their Second Life client under the GPL, so I figured I’d have a go at getting it compiled on Ubuntu. Three libraries weren’t already packaged, so I threw together some initial attempts at getting them usable (libelfio, libopenjpeg, and libxmlrpc-epi). I think the long-term approach will be trying to convince Linden Labs to use stuff that is being actively maintained.
One big hurdle is audio, since FMOD doesn’t have a Free license. I hope it can get replaced; I’d be curious to hear what Second Life needs from FMOD that some of the other Free stacks can’t do.
So, if you’re in a mood to play with getting the Second Life client running, hopefully my stab at packaging can help (I’ve solved a number of gotchas in the assumptions their build system made), and so far it built:
$ ls -lh secondlife-x86_64-bin
-rwxr-xr-x 1 kees kees 34M 2007-01-10 05:33 secondlife-x86_64-bin*
$ ldd ./secondlife-x86_64-bin | wc -l
77
Unfortunately, it immediately crashes when I load it. :)
