Moved my old web pages from cs to cse and added a redirect. Copied all the files and directories from the old site to the new (using rsync --archive --progress). Created a file .htaccess in the top level directory of the old site (/deprecated/cs/homepages/patrikj - do chmod a+r as well) with the following content:
RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^.*cs\.chalmers\.se$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.cse.chalmers.se/~patrikj/$1 [R=301,L]

cabal install pandoc - a nice program to convert from markdown (almost plain text) to more structured formats (like HTML, LaTeX, .....). The ubuntu version is "old" (Jan 2008) so apt-get install pandoc did not provide the features I needed (code blocks in particular).

Finally got bidirectional access to GCal from Thunderbird + Lightning + Provider. The "New Calendar" menu entry was greyed out. After some searching I found the following discussion explaining that an "old" version of c++ is needef _before installing_ lightning. On my ubuntu 8.04 system this was the missing command:
  sudo apt-get install libstdc++5

followed by a reinstall of the provider and lightning (0.8) plugins.
