I fixed some thingies today.. Like fixing up Samba to be a PDC with my testbox. Nice. Installed gdm with a [url=http://www.sid3windr.be/files/gdm.png]nice theme (crystal)[/url] & cygwin for the Xserver so I can run X apps on my linuxbox right on my Windows 2000 workstation 🙂 Thanks to ZeveRoaRe and [url=http://www.monkeynoodle.org/comp/remote-x-cygwin-howto]this howto[/url] for hints :)) That also means I can finally run my beloved Evolution from Windows (or kinda). :d

I wanted to install Gnome on the box, but it didn’t feel like (that’s what you get for running Debian Unstable), after digging through some dependencies I found everything depending on libxslt1, while it was superseded by libxslt1.1 … So with my magic fingers I made a dummy libxslt1 package so it could install, and yes, it did! 🙂 Go me! :d ([url=http://www.sid3windr.be/files/libxslt1_1.1.2-1_all.deb].deb file here[/url])

In sadder news however.. Diana is leaving tomorrow :'( So we’re having a quiet cosy movie evening now, I’m writing this to you in the break 🙂 Back to a boring old life tomorrow… (which will greatly increase my online-ness again ;))

Diana left today :'( Immediately after putting her on the train, it left, and I realized it was the wrong one 😮 Oopsie. She missed her train to Switzerland, so I made a reservation with Virgin Express to fly her over to Switzerland.. All “fixed”, and she could stay a little longer :d

I must look old when unshaven.. Today was the first time I had to show my identity card to prove I was allowed to use my Go Pass. *sigh* 🙂

Oh well. Back to schooldays. Damn. Just realized I have a Networking exam tomorrow 😮

Got up really really early.. 6:45, to get to Luik (8 euro single trip 😐 but that was worth it ;)) to pick up Diana …
I’m so happy to see her again :d

Had to be at school at 12, we visited IBM’s datacenter in Nossegem.. The presentation was a bit boring, but the datacenter itself was nice… especially since i love all that rackmounted and networking stuff :d Their high-availability setup is pretty cool. 🙂

I got my christmas present from Diana too.. A data cable for my Nokia 3510i. After messing with my PC, IRQ’s, software, etc… it’s now working. Really nice, now i can finally manage the thing from my PC and upload java stuff to it. Who knows, maybe I’ll develop some software for it myself… 😉

The end of a successful day.. good night! :d

After I overslept, it turned out to be a pretty busy day (as every day this week)… Been working at school until 6.. constant Java programming.

Afterwards, I heard my girlfriend had a surprise for me.. She’s coming over! :d :d I have to get up early tomorrow, but in this special case I don’t care at all :d

Oh yea, Linux kernel 2.4.24 was released today, due to a roothole. Sad times for Linux these days… one critical bug after another 🙁

Oh well, time to upgrade once more! :s

I’m pretty happy with how this site is now progressing.. my old one seemed pretty dull and unchanging 🙂

I’m currently working on a guestbook… it’s nearing completion. 😀

Then again, I should go to bed… *sighs* So much to do, so little time!

I went to London again yesterday, by Eurostar. Got up ridiculously early (6:00!). 2nd class seats in Eurostar are a bit too small for me… guess I’ll have to make a lot of money later to be able to pay first class all the time, or just not go to England.

So… the trip. Apparently we were planning to go shopping, but were in London at 10, while shops opened at 12…
Ok, we decided to go to the British Museum. As we are going to Mexico in April, we thought of going to see the “Americas” part. There was a sign saying it was open until 11, so we went in… to be able to enjoy the room a whole [b]14[/b] seconds… it was 10:45. Oh well, no 3 pounds for them then.

While wandering through the city, you can see billboards like [i]”Make gloves, not war!”[/i] or [i]”Please refrain from licking this bus.”[/i] Mmmkay. 😉

While shopping, I found a very nice book called [i]The book of bunny suicides[/i], filled with drawings of bunnies who want to commit suicide. I read all through it in the shop, and I highly recommend it 🙂

The Disney Store on the other hand… Finding Nemo seems to be a real quest. They have [b]all[/b] characters from the movie, except Nemo. Isn’t that nice? 🙂

Although I was very very tired when I got home, I enjoyed the trip, let’s hope I can go back some time :d

Happy newyear 🙂

I finally got around to finishing missing parts on this site, so I put it online now. I started a few months ago but things kinda got in the way… Enjoy!

After about a year of the old design, without any updates, I decided it was time for a new site with a new design and a blogging system for easy updating … Stay tuned! 🙂
