some tidbits

I have not blogged for quite some time, mostly due to real life eating up my energy for non-trivial stuff. Anyway there is some news:

  • iceape is finally in etch. A big thanks to the maintainer team, I just did not like iceweasel/firefox.
  • Mozilla bug triaging is progressing nicely, down from many bugs to about 430.
  • Still no snow.
  • Still no snow.
  • Hold a second, I need to doublecheck. - Still no snow.
  • I have been bored a little bit due to item just mentioned and therefore will be upgrading my monitor hardware. Going from a 17'' CRT on a Matrox G400 to a 20'' TFT (Samsung SyncMaster 204B) and a PowerColor 128MB Radeon 9250 SE. The old grafic adapter did not have DVI out and I simply bought the cheapest (about EUR 34) new one that had one since this computer is too slow for fancy 3D games anyway. Afaik the Radeon 9250 SE should be supported without any problems in Xorg, even with 3D acceleration.
