Comedi Documentation . ... I assume that your hardware device is in your computer, and that you know the relevant details about it, i.e., what kind of card it is, the I/O base, the IRQ, jumper settings related to input ranges, etc. To tell the comedi kernel module that you have a particular device, and some information about it, you will be running the comedi_config command. ... The overall info gives information about the device -- basically the same information as /proc/comedi. ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... I think I will break from my usual format of Bad Astronomy/ Good Astronomy by saying that the way we define seasons currently is not strictly bad, but I feel (in my opinion!) that it could be better. The definition of when the seasons begin is at the moment of solstice or equinox; that is, winter (in the north) starts on December 22 nd and summer starts on June 22 nd . ... Now imagine breaking up the Sun's 46 degree up-and-down yearly swing into 1 day intervals. ...
