Personally, I think all “new” PHP applications should be autoload aware.

Provided that the codebase respects its own standards, it really isn’t hard to do. The real tragedy comes when a codebase has sections which can not be readily streamlined by _autoloaders() (as in – breaks the standard). An unavoidable indicator of a messy codebase is too many exceptions to the rule of class naming || code inclusion.
Sigh.
I’ve got 2 separate installs of WP running on the same virtual host under 2 separate accounts. Somehow they have become intertwined. Annoying to say the least.
Will this bring me bad karma, slagging off the very blogging software I’m using to slag? This is free speech.
Well, it works but isn’t ideal. The Compiz effects refuse to work, and twice today the mouse got “trapped” on the secondary screen. Once again, I dislike the ATI card.
I was mucking around with the Rightscale control panel yesterday and was amazed by how easy it is to get a EC2 instance up and running. One thing which wasnt exactly obvious was how to trigger the installation scripts at launch.
I plan on developing a small “self aware” test application to experience launching multiple instances which can co-operate based on this “awareness”.
After about 2 weeks of trial and error during friday afternoons I finally managed to get Xinerama working. You have to run through this process:
Hopefully it works for you. I’m annoyed that the mouse cursor remains on the main screen when you move across to the second one. Ubuntu/ATI graphics fail. Next time I’ll definately get an Nvidia card. Also, the second monitor looks terrible. Poor colours and contract and everything. Its a Dell.
There are other options which you can enter at the same time relating to screen resolutions and overlay types etc… look up “aticonfig –help” for more info.
I know its lame, but I cant think of anything better to write at the moment. Plus I want to try out the code syntax highlighter plugin I just installed
