PiWik can lookup your site visitor’s IPs to geolocate them. But if you’re running PiWik as an LXC container and forward traffic with Apache or Nginx to the container, PiWik thinks you’re coming from the IP the last network interface, eg. 10.0.0.2 or your server’s public facing IP.
I assume that the container runs Debian and you’re running PiWik with Apache.
1. Make sure you forward the original remote IP as HTTP headers to your Piwik install.
If you use NGINX as a proxy, you’d do it as follows:
proxy_set_header X-Real- $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
2. Configure Piwik to use the remote HTTP headers instead of normal ones:
nano /var/www/html/config/config.ini.php
and add these three lines below the [General] settings:
; Uncomment line below if you use a standard proxy
proxy_client_headers[] = HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR
proxy_host_headers[] = HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST
You may also need to enable the Apache RPAF module.
apt-get install libapache2-mod-rpaf
nano /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/rpaf.conf
Change RPAFproxy_ips setting to include your bridge network’s IP, or public IP depending on your set up, eg. 10.0.0.2
service apache2 restart
Check your PiWik and see visitor’s IPs. PiWik can automatically anonymize IP adresses to retain privacy.
1. enable [multilib] repository.
2. Install winetricks, wine, and lib32-lcms from multilib.
# pacman -S wine winetricks lib32-lcms
3. Then download and install Picasa:
wget dl.google.com/picasa/picasa39-setup.exe
export WINEARCH=win32
winetricks ie7
wine picasa39-setup.exe
Now you got picasa working.
Next is installing video codecs so Picasa can pick up .MOV files, etc.
Download this codec pack, and install with Wine. Select "Advanced" during install, and make sure you never select the "Windows" options when you can avoid them.

I stumbled over this blog post that made me think about a pretty hillarious moment at OKFest 2012, my first time in Finland.
An illustration of the potential difference between centralised and decentralised development at the infrastructure level was offered by Urs Riggenbach of Solar Fire, who described the development of open source hardware for small-scale hydro-electric power generation. Urs argued that, rather than massive cost large-scale Dams projects, with their visible ecological impacts, potential to displace communities, and scope for corruption in their contracting arrangements, communities could make use of Intellectual Property free designs to construct their own small-scale solutions.

It was in a panel representing the “open development” efforts done by the World Bank, Os and NGOs. As Tim Davies points out in his blog, open development and open knowledge as framed by the Open Knowledge Fondation strongly focusses on data as in statustics, exluding other knowledge that’s open such as open tools for change: Open hardware, openly accessible knowledge, construction plans, etc.
For me, open development means to work on solutions for positive change ("development") and at the same time "open" up the tools for this change so that others can do the same.
