DOR_VOR to ODR Conversion
The Delft ODR orbits for Envisat (ftp://dutlru2.lr.tudelft.nl/pub/orbits/ODR.ENVISAT1/eigen-cg03c/arclist) end sometime beginning of 2008. Therefore we need other orbits to process new Envisat scenes with DORIS. It is possible to use CNES precise orbits (DOR_VOR) files in Doris to process Envisat Interferograms. These need to be converted to ODR files as a first step. Freek van Leijen from TU-Delft has written a matlab script file (dorvor_to_odr.m) for the conversion.

High-Res GMT Coastlines in UBUNTU
Apparently the GMT full and high resolution coastline packages were too big for debian/ubuntu servers. So you can not get them with a single apt-get command. Here is how I installed them.

SuSE can not Find Library
Recently we had to relocate our computers from one computing facility to the other. All the computers had to get a new static IP address. Which was easy to change through YAST. But on one system we could not get yast to work. It kept giving this message:
computer:~ # yast
warning: the qt frontend is installed but does not work
warning: the ncurses frontend is installed but does not work
You need to install yast2-ncurses to use the YaST2 text mode interface
