Battery Replacment Finally replaced the battery in my Sony SRS-XB12, putting the new battery in was easy replacing some of the screws was harder, but with my new Wera comet My LetsEncrypt cert was expiring tomorrow so I updated it today, and there was a firmware upgrade that I was expecting to blow away, the ssl files, but this update left them in place so updating the server.crt in /etc/kvmd/user/ssl/ was straight forward. Restarting nginx to pick up the new cert: /etc/init.d/S99kvmd-nginx

PinePhone To connect my MacBook to the pine phone I used: ioreg -p IOUSB to find out which USB serial device to use. Then used cu -l /dev/cu.usbserial-1420 -s 115200 to connect - needed sudo to get access. PineTime NRFConnect can be used to connect the pinetime to update the firmware.

Lenovo IdeaPad S10-3 My IdeaPad was not letting me get into the BIOS, and the ethernet stopped working - this was resolved by dismantling and removing the CMOS battery from the motherboard, causing the BIOS to be reset. Lenovo S10-3 Disassembly Guide was really helpful. Also noticed that the built in athn0 is now working, as can be seen in the dmesg :~) ssh Confusion between -L connections on the local (client) host or -R connections on the remote (server) host: -L [bind_address:]port:host:hostport and -R [bind_address:]port:host:hostport partly due to the fact that I was already using a ssh tunnel to connect to the machine from which I was trying to forward a connection from the remote side. ssh -vvv -R port:host:hostport my.server Pre-Reg
