Wee yet again another month has gone by with no post! Things have just been weird lately. I haven't worked on a lot of stuff lately, at least computer-wise.

I do finally have that 20 gig drive now though, and have taken full advantage of it! I can finally keep Linux on my machine. I've thought about learning some SDL or OpenGL, and converting Electris to use it, so I could port it over to Linux, but that would probably be a big job. Might be worth it to mess with sometime though just for the learning experience. I've used up a lot of the space already though. But it's going to quality gaming and such, so I can't complain. ;)

For any Linux geeks, I installed Mandrake 8.0 (since that's the newest distribution I have laying around, and don't choose to wait 3 weeks to download 3 discs for the newest Mandrake or Redhat). I've done some tweaking though. I upgraded to kernel 2.4.20, and switched to the ext3 filesystem. I got the newest versions of XMMS, BitchX, KVIRC, Squid, etc. All the good stuff. Now that I think of it, I downloaded some stuff about a week or so ago that I never got around to trying. The only thing left that I want to get working is my webcam, but I don't think I'll have a lot of luck with that. It's one of those older Alaris Weecam things, that runs through the parallel port.

Well my room is in a total mess, and I still have to find places for some of this stuff, so I'm gonna finish this up. Btw, I'm using this w.bloggar program again this time. Had I forgotten about it, I might have been too lazy to made the entry at all! So for that reason, I recommend it. ;)
