As you might know already, thanks to Homebrew and GeckOS, you can run any imported Wii game on 1 single Wii.
But, what if you’re in a PAL region, you want to play an NTSC game (or visa versa), and your TV gives you black/white graphics?
Here’s the lesson.

Do like you usually do (for post-Homebrewers).
Install The Homebrew Channel, and download GeckoOS 1.9.x (for pre-Homebrewers, full tutorial for this coming soon).
After you started GeckoOS, go to the Config Options.
For PAL games in an NTSC country, turn on “Force NTSC”.
For NTSC games in a PAL country, turn on “Force PAL60″.
Never use “Force PAL50″ on NTSC games, because it would lag in-game (or parts of the games).
Press “Save Config”.
Launch the game, and it’s coloured.
Note: This will not work on all games.

Tested:
Super Mario Galaxy 2 US version: Works in PAL60 and NTSC.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl US version: Works in NTSC only, not PAL60.
Super Mario Stadium Family Baseball JP version: Works in NTSC only, PAL60 results the GSoD (Green Screen of Death).

One of the most useful tools in Linux, BSD and Solaris is wget.
Even thought Mac OS X is also Unix-based, it doesn’t have wget build-in.
Here’s the tutorial for how to get it.

1. Download it by clicking here.
2. Open Finder, go to “Downloads”, double click “wget-1.12.tar.gz” to unpack it.
3. Open the Terminal, and enter these commands:

cd Downloads/wget-1.12
./configure
make
sudo make install
cd
wget http://www.cw-server.eu/fuckdog.mp3

That file at the end exists, at the moment of writing.

Since most Mac users never worked with commands:
“cd Downloads/wget-1.12″ changes the current directory to /Users/username/Downloads/wget-1.12.
“./configure” configures the package before compiling it.
“make” compiles it.
“sudo make install” installs the compiled package as the “root” user.
“cd” changes your position to /Users/username (your Home directory).
“wget URL” downloads the file, comes in very handy if your browser doesn’t start downloading, but shows it you instead.

You have the new iOS 4.0, but you can’t jailbreak with the current tools, because it’s to hard, or just because you don’t have a Mac or Windows PC.
Well, here it is.

Open Mobile Safari, and go to http://www.jailbreakme.com.
You’ll see a lock screen look-a-like thing, slide it.
It will download and jailbreak for you, automatically.
Cydia is installed, happy jailbreaking!

Within Cydia, I also activated Wallpapers and Multitasking on my iPod Touch 2G MC Model.
You’ll find it in Tweaks > Features for iPod 2G.

Someday, the darkness will get to the moon, but if The DSHack Team want to help, it will be called different.

You can properly find vHost tutorials for Apache (HTTPD) and Lighttpd by ease on the internet.
But, how about Nginx?
There are tutorials for Virtual Hosts, but to make FastCGI to work, there’s only one site (our source).
We’ll make one tutorial more about Nginx.
This is about more Virtual Hosts at a time.

In this example, we use /var/www/domain#.tld as an example.
Feel free to change it.
Now, do this:

cd /var/www
mkdir domain1.nl
mkdir domain2.org

And now, edit “default”.

nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/default

We made a working version of our configuration, so you’ll only need to change the paths and domains.
Note: We give examples for domains with “www.”.
You’ll need to add ones without “www.”.
Changable values are bold.

server {
listen 80;
server_name www.domain1.nl;

location / {
index index.php index.html;
root /var/www/domain1.nl;
}

# # this sends all non-existing file or directory requests to index.php
# if (!-e $request_filename) {
# rewrite ^(.+)$ /index.php?q=$1 last;
# }

location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass localhost:53217; # port where FastCGI processes were spawned
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /var/www/domain1.nl$fastcgi_script_name; # same path as above

fastcgi_param QUERY_STRING $query_string;
fastcgi_param REQUEST_METHOD $request_method;
fastcgi_param CONTENT_TYPE $content_type;
fastcgi_param CONTENT_LENGTH $content_length;

fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param REQUEST_URI $request_uri;
fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_URI $document_uri;
fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT $document_root;
fastcgi_param SERVER_PROTOCOL $server_protocol;

fastcgi_param REMOTE_PORT $remote_port;
fastcgi_param SERVER_ADDR $server_addr;
fastcgi_param SERVER_PORT $server_port;
fastcgi_param SERVER_NAME $server_name;

# required if PHP was built with --enable-force-cgi-redirect
fastcgi_param REDIRECT_STATUS 200;
}
}

server {
listen 80;
server_name www.domain2.org;

location / {
index index.php index.html;
root /var/www/domain2.org;
}

# # this sends all non-existing file or directory requests to index.php
# if (!-e $request_filename) {

# }

location ~ \.php$ {

fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT $document_root;
fastcgi_param SERVER_PROTOCOL $server_protocol;

fastcgi_param GATEWAY_INTERFACE CGI/1.1;
fastcgi_param SERVER_SOFTWARE nginx/$nginx_version;

fastcgi_param REMOTE_ADDR $remote_addr;
fastcgi_param REMOTE_PORT $remote_port;
fastcgi_param SERVER_ADDR $server_addr;
fastcgi_param SERVER_PORT $server_port;
fastcgi_param SERVER_NAME $server_name;

# required if PHP was built with --enable-force-cgi-redirect
fastcgi_param REDIRECT_STATUS 200;
}
}
}

That’s all.
Now you have a working configuration!

On every Debian-based VPS, I get this error message after “mysql -u root -p”.
But how to solve the case?
Here’s the tutorial.

On Debian servers, MySQL doesn’t come with a Root user.
Even though you make a Root user, you’ll still won’t be able to do anything.
Instead, look in your Debian.conf.

nano /etc/mysql/debian.conf

Copy the username and password over to your Text Editor.
And now, log in:

mysql -u username-in-your-conf -ppassword-in-your-conf

Yes, “-p” and the password without spaces.
And you’re in, and you can do anything you want!

Sites affacted: YamiHoshi Story, YamiHoshi Tech, Woondroom Goes, Mario Kart CW Project.
Code: DE001.
Description:

My other server was way to slow with 7 sites/6 domains.
So I had to split the sites: Small sites on VPS1, big sites on VPS2.
As soon as I ordered VPS2, everything has been gone wrong.
It was either a non-working MySQL, non-working OS, non-working Lighttpd, non-working Nginx, or some of them combined.
I hope this will never happen again.

Again, sorry for the huge downtime!

After a the question “How did you make those screenshots?”, I’ll tell it in this very, very long tutorial.

1. Press the sleep and home button at once.
2. Connect your iPhone with a Mac.
3. Open iTunes, make sure you have the right settings and sync with it.
4. Open iPhoto, import them, select them, drag and drop them in a folder.

You’re done!

So many video’s you want to watch, and so less knowledge to Japanese you have…
I’m studying to Japanese, so I’ll help you through the Kana/Kanji Rain.

First, you go to the red link at the top saying ログイン.
Then click the red button below the login field.
Scroll down and click the grey button.
Type in your email address.
Now for the following fields, top to bottom, left to right:
Nickname (min. 2 and max. 16 characters).
Gender (Male, Female) – Don’t ask me why they want to know that.
Date of birth (Year, Month, Day).
Your location (if you scroll down, you’ll also get non-Japanese locations).
Password (twince, just like on all other sites).
Secret question/answer (if you can’t read/understand, just do something random).
And click the first button below the registration form.
Now a simple Captcha.
And lastly, confirm your email address, so you get your User ID (which isn’t anything useful at all).

And some tips:
ドナルド ゼルダ (McDonalds Zelda)
ドナルド ポケモン (McDonalds Pokémon)
ドナルド マリオ (McDonalds Mario)
VOCALOID
Caramelldansen
ウマウマDansen (same as Caramelldansen)

Enjoy the wierdest video’s on the internet!

I know, you can just do this through Mobile Safari, but everything’s small, and it takes really long to load.
Invision Power Services have released an iPhone App, which allows you to do that.
It’s really easy, but I wanted to test out the screenshot feature of my iPod Touch, so I made this tutorial anyway.


Tab the App Store icon.

Search for “invision power services”.

Install IPB.

After installing it, tab it.

Tab the + icon, and do the followings:
Title: Just give it a name.
URL: The link to the forum (so not dshack.org, but http://www.dshack.org/forum).
Username and Password: Your username and password of that forum (registration on that forum needed).

Tab the link.

Here it is, the mobile version of the IP. Board!
