Since Audacious crashes in Ubuntu 9.10 when playing NSF files, I was compelled to compile a newer version for personal use, and I noticed that their build system is tricked out with very little extraneous geek-cred output and some colored output. I have been writing lots of little one-off bulk job scripts lately, and when I realized the answer to the question "Why don't I do this?" was "I don't know how", I decided to do some google jump roping and figure it out.

On-Suspend scripts in Ubuntu 9.10

My thinkpad works pretty well in Ubuntu 9.10, but one thing thing that is not fixed is that my wireless ceases to function when I resume. If you remove and reinsert the kernel module for it, it will work again. Back in the day, you'd put this in /etc/apm/resume.d/, or more recent, in /etc/acpi/resume.d/, but as with other seemingly fine technologies Ubuntu has recently deprecated ACPI. The new location for the script is /etc/pm/sleep.d/.
