Paper Gestalt
Need to remember to present this at the next journal club.

Imaging sharing
I need to create some image galleries for my garden. Wish me luck! But how to choose a hosting site?
Especially, I heard there is some issue with sites claiming ownership of uploaded photos.
- Flickr
- I already have an account linked with Yahoo
- 1 TB storage
- I still own copyright
- Tumblr
- Picasa
- Smugmug
- ImageShack / yfrog
- Photobucket / TinyPic
- Imagur
- min.us
- 500px
- Shutterfly
- Skydrive

Another nVidia moment
I was running Slicer, and suddenly X froze. Needed to do a hard boot. (Even /sbin/shutdown was not effective.)
Following the reboot, X was extremely sluggish. Could not log in through console. Xorg.0.log was clean, but dmesg had messages such as:
[ 65.004180] NVRM: RmInitAdapter failed! (0x26:0x38:1219)
[ 65.004198] NVRM: rm_init_adapter failed for device bearing minor number 1
[ 65.004241] NVRM: nvidia_frontend_open: minor 1, module->open() failed, error –5
and

Decided to upgrade my distro and reboot. Still no love.
Eventually a forum suggested this setting in xorg.conf.
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "BackingStore" "True"
EndSection
It seems to have worked ??
