While I was searching for a very quick and good SVN tutorial, I found this one:

which had just the basics covered for starting within minutes. Cool!

More on the project with the site redesign
After a discussion on ubuntuforums.org, I decided to follow as many of the advices I was given as possible. I have prepared a new header image; the .jpg seemed a bit better than the .png one to me, and it was a bit smaller in size as well (23 vs 34 kb). Here it is:
Also did some other minor changes (fonts, etc). More to come, but later.

The redesign of the website seems complete to me
So, a complete redesign of the website was made, absolutely from scratch. For the header I used a part of a GPL'd picture from gnome-look.org. The colour scheme is from colourlovers.com. All other stuff/design is by me - created in a text editor, tested in Firefox 3+/Opera 9.64+/IE 7+ on Windows and Linux - and on all of these browsers it looks ok to me.
I'm still performing some minor improvements, but I think this is what it will look like from now on.
This is how the old design looked like:
I felt absolutely nothing wrong with it, but I wanted to create one by myself. Also, the newer one seems to be more W3C-validator-friendly (about 70 errors vs over 1000 for the older design - and almost all of these 70 errors come because of the upper banner that blogspot.com puts on every website in their domain - hopefully one day I will learn how to fix them ;]).

How to check the computers connected in the wireless network in Linux
A quick way to check how many computers are connected to the (home) wireless network would be:
(of course, changing the numbers accordingly for the relevant network). Also, the program 'nmap' should be installed beforehand...
$ nmap -v -sP 192.168.10.0/24

Eclipse + Subclipse + Javadoc setup
I have spent some time setting Eclipse 3.5 up with Ubuntu 8.04 LTS. The basic set-up is as simple as uncompressing the newest version for Linux, as described here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EclipseIDE. There were some problems at first trying to set it up together with Subclipse - namely it complained about "unable to load default SVN client"...
After googling a bit, there was this thread on ubuntuforums.org, that came with some answers. After writing this in the "eclipse.ini" after "-vmargs":
as well as after installing the newer version of Subversion from the backports repository plus these additional plugins (form the URL Subclipse provided):
-- SVNKit, SVNKit Client Adapter, SVNKit Library, JNA Library
it worked just fine. It may sound like a lot of work, but it didn't take much time actually.
Another thing worth setting up in Eclipse is the javadoc:
-> in the package properties there is the rt.jar file.
-> in its properties, a javadoc location should be added (it's a local file in my configuration, something like "file:/usr/share/javadoc/docs/api/"
