Helped Liz move into her curate’s house in Derby today. pretty wierd – the start of the end of an era. Over the next month or so the lion’s share of my year group at college will be leaving to start their curacies. Thankfully Liz is just up the road, but some, such as Jo, …

usr-local-bin on 10.1
Realised this morning that I’d never updated the information on installing usr-local-bin packages on SUSE 10.1. Admittedly, those packages are a couple of months out of date since I’ve not had a build machine, but now that 10.1 is out, it made sense to update the info. See the updated info here.

Bush lied to US citizens through news
[Ref] So, the latest underhand tactic employed by the Bush regime is to plant fake news stories on dozens of US TV stations to, among other things, talk up the “success” of the conflict in Iraq. This should come as no surprise after he and his colleagues spent the time after 9/11 trying desperately to …

Microsoft are coming to get you
They really are, and if you’re a Windows user, they’re going to more or less control everything about your PC. If you’re a Windows user, find someone you know who uses Linux and ask them to help you migrate. You will want also to read this.

Friday morning
Soooo tired, got to bed well after midnight last night. Party was great though, had a great time, took some photos which, along with all the other sets I’ve still got on the camera, I will upload at some point. Reason I’ve not done it is that the /home partition on Amanda’s machine is currently …

Cricket
Well, first match (and only match actually) of the season this evening, a sixteen over a side affair against the Church of the Assumption, Beeston. It was an enjoyable match, that finished in an Assumption win. They posted 123/1 in their sixteen overs, we managed 58/4. However, given that they play thirty matches a season …

Jem Report article
Just posted this article to Planet SUSE News. One thing I would like to say regarding it, but can’t be bothered to say in the site’s forum thingy is that the author only mentions PackMan as an external installation source. Now, I know the article is looking in this case as at a specific area …

Out of the habit…
Wow, I’ve really got out of the habit of blogging this month. I suspect it’s a combination of not having done a great deal outside of college and still not having my laptop, so not being able to work on anything openSUSE related. Anyway, last Wednesday, we went out for an Italian meal and cocktails …

Catch-up (2)
So, to finish my catch-up of the last ten days or so. Friday afternoon was the latest Community Day at college. As part of the day’s activities, we cleared out the Chapel music & sound store room of all the junk that had accumulated in there over goodness knows how many years. The difference was …
