Dunholme

So it looks like my real name is Dunholme, Hill Island

The name "Durham" comes from the Old English "dun", meaning hill, and the Old Norse "holme", which translates to island

He is officially styled The Right Reverend Father in God, (Christian Name), by Divine Providence Lord Bishop of Durham, but this full title is rarely used. In signatures, the bishop's family name is replaced by Dunelm, from the Latin name for Durham (the Latinised form of Old English Dunholm). In the past, bishops of Durham varied their signatures between Dunelm and the French Duresm. Auckland Castle has been the official residence of the Bishops of Durham since 1832.

The Most Embarrassing Computer Problem Ever

For the last 8 hours, + 2 hours yesterday, I've been researching and scouring the Internet about a problem I've had with Windows 2008 R2, which is the same as Windows 7. I couldn't click Windows that I had open. Some windows would click sometimes, but then all other windows would stop responding to clicks, as if the left mouse button, and the right, were not working. But it would work on one specific application, like the task bar only, or Notepad only. So the mouse clicks worked, but didn't work. Also sometimes I'd click on an "active" window, which I could see as active with the darkened title bar, and it would go light. The click would deactivate the window instead of raising a menu or pressing a button. I restored and uninstalled drivers, booted WinPE several times, and many other desperate things. The problem appears to be the side button on my mouse jamming. Which didn't seem right, since the mouse would click some things, and the touchpad, a different device, wouldn't click either! I'd even plug in a second mouse, same problem. But I didn't unplug the first mouse, which had it's side button jammed in! So the lesson here is to unplug things then plug them back in one by one.

I was five minutes away from re-installing Windows!

Synergy vs MagicMouse

I've been using Magic Mouse for about six months. But I just switched back to Synergy, which is new and improved. The differences I see is that Synergy has a server and clients, so you can only use the keyboard and mouse of one machine, which is what I'm doing anyway. Magic Mouse allowed you to use any mouse and keyboard with any client. Magic Mouse is more peer to peer, Synergy is client/server. But Magic mouse wasn't cooperating between my machine joined to the domain at work and my Hyper-V server which is not connected to the domain. Also I was getting a "Keys don't match" from Magic Mouse. Or it's techincally called "Mouse Without Borders"
