I had a mechanic friend listen and he thought it was the tensioner. He was right, but it took me a dozen hours over a period of a couple months to solve the problem. Ultimately, I had to do a little back-yard engineering. text/html 2010-08-23T10:43:04-06:00 Joel Dare http://www.joeldare.com/wiki/auto_mechanics?rev=1282581784&do=diff Over the last few years I've done a little of my own mechanic work on my cars.

On mobile devices jQuery is both a little bloated and sometimes incompatible. But, having grown use to it's syntax and it's ability to separate source and ui code, I wanted to find and set some similar standards for coding in pure JavaScript. What I found is that jQuery made me a lazy JavaScript programmer in many ways. text/html 2010-08-18T21:55:11-06:00 Joel Dare http://www.joeldare.com/wiki/technical_documents?rev=1282190111&do=diff Linux Instruction Installing Ubuntu on an Averatec 5500 Laptop Installing Asterisk Under Debian Etch Installing the O2Micro OZ711MX (OZ711M1) Driver Installing PHPEd Under Debian Etch Installing a Postscript Printer Under Cups Installing RT2500 WiFi Adapter Installing SmartCVS Installing Sun JRE Installing VMWare Server Console Under Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron Intel 82801G Under Debian Etch Kerberos Setup Real to Virtual Machine with SystemRescueCD Set Gnome to use Reduced Resources … text/html 2010-08-13T09:33:51-06:00 Joel Dare http://www.joeldare.com/wiki/play_an_mp3_audio_stream_in_phonegap?rev=1281713631&do=diff I work for a company that owns a couple radio stations as well as a popular classifieds website (<http://www.ksl.com>).
