If you've installed the recently released "Service Pack 2" (SP2) for
Windows XP, you have automatically installed a new firewall on your
PC that might be blocking VNC connections. To create an "exception"
for VNC, follow these instructions:
1. Click Start, click Run, type Wscui.cpl, and then click OK to open
Windows Firewall.
2. Click the Exceptions tab, and de-select the "Don't Allow Exceptions"
radio-button.
3. Click Add Port to display the Add a Port dialog box.
4. Enter port number "5900" or whatever port you've got VNC on that
PC to listen on (port number = 5900 + "VNC Display Number").
5. Select the TCP protocol.
6. In the Name field, type "VNC".
7. Click Change Scope to view or to set the scope for the port
exception, and then click OK.
8. Click OK to close the Add a Port dialog box.
That should do it! More info here:

Total cost ~ $110 (not counting what I already had lying around) If money is tight there are a few things that can make this cheaper by about fifty bucks:

....nolist ; We don't want to actually include defs in our listing file. .include "m168def.inc" ; m168def.inc defines all the pins on the Mega168 so we can ; use them by their names rather than addresses (not fun). .list ; We DO want to include the following code in our listing ;D rjmp main ; You usually place these two lines after all your main: ; directives. They make sure that resets work correctly. ldi r16,0xFF ; LoaD Immediate. This sets r16 = 0xFF (255) out DDRB,r16 ; Out writes to SRAM, which is one way of accessing ; pins. DDRB controls PORTB's in/out state. ldi r16,0x00 ; r16 is where we'll store current LED state ; 0x00 means all off. This is preserved over loops.
You need to tell subversion what mime-type to use. Just use the command: svn propset svn:mime-type 'text/html' FILENAME or svn propset svn:mime-type 'image/jpeg' FILENAME For more info: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.4/svn.advanced.props.file-portability.html#svn.advanced.props.special.mime-type It's also possible to configure your Subversion client to automatically set each file's mime-type. For example, by modifying ~/.subversion/config to resemble [miscellany] enable-auto-props = yes [auto-props] *.html = svn:mime-type=text/html For more info: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/ch07.html#svn-ch-7-sect-1.3.2
