Using the Windows Installer for Paravirtual Network Drivers

There’s an installer available for windows virtio network drivers that can be downloaded from the kvm wiki site which makes installation of your windows paravirtual network drivers a bit simpler. According to the instructions, it will handle 95% of cases, except for certain cases where there are multiple virtio devices, some of which are using older virtio drivers. Unfortunately it is not a simple one click followed by clicking next repeatedly as the binary drivers are not bundled with the installer but it is still simple to execute.

Along with the installer are some important release notes which are listed below:

During installation on “server” platforms (XP64, 2003, 2008) there are system pop-ups related to installation of unsigned drivers. These pop-ups can not be suppressed and the installation must be confirmed manually.

1. During installation there are pop-ups of drivers search etc – they usually are closed automatically and should be ignored.
2. Sometimes pop-up (1) may be not visible under pop-up (2) – the installation will wait until the pop-up (1) confirmed.
3. Expected placement of installer is in the root of driver’s tree. If the placement is different, command-line should include the actual driver’s root path, relative or absolute.
4. In order to collect the log of installation – run Debugview and enable Win32 logging capture.

In the next section, I’ve outlined the procedure for using the installer. Read full story

Externalize your Javascripts and CSS

Now you may be wondering just exactly why you would want to externalize your CSS and Javascripts? Ever heard the term SEO? If you have a website I’ll bet you have. If you have a website and you haven’t heard of SEO then “WHERE THE HECK YOU BEEN?” I’m fairly certain even the newest webmasters know what SEO is and how important it is today.

SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization, which means to make your website as close as you can to perfect when seen through the eyes of a search engine searchbot. One way to help yourself in this area is to make sure your actual content (text) is as close to the top of the page as possible. When I say “as close to the top” I mean when you are viewing the “SOURCE CODE”, where you can see all your html tags. This is what the searchbots, or spiders, see when they crawl your site.
