Damn, those exams are getting awfully close ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

And Diana is still gone (has been the whole week :() until sunday evening ๐Ÿ™

Blade had some SODIMM lying around for my laptop.. didn’t work.. Compaq/Dell bullshit? Who knows… :s

Got a visit from wanderer earlier… which meant ofcourse some file exchanges ;), a visit to Quick and some talk… in this case even hardware donations to me… Fun :d

Got the idea of putting my HP PSC 750 on a Linux box (boo) instead of my Windows workstation (minsc). HP Drivers are a bitch, and I didn’t have scanning functionality at the moment :s
CUPS install went without a hitch, I did it before at home, which is pretty nice :d SANE was a little more difficult but only cause I couldn’t find a file where I had to uncomment a line ๐Ÿ™‚ Thanks to HP for sponsoring the HPOJ and HPInkjet projects! (Let’s hope they don’t grow into the SOB’s the Windows drivers are though ;)).

Changed default browser to Mozilla. Tabbed browsing rocks, and I was sick and tired of security issues with IE. Started fixing up my sites for Mozilla ;), was pleased to see this page already looked exactly like I wanted to.

Stopped participation in Grub. Stats & client way too unreliable.

Watching Tomb Raider 2 now.. then onto Van Wilder ๐Ÿ˜‰

Maybe I should study a bit too…

Signed up with the Grub Crawler project, [url=http://www.grub.org/html/teams.php?op=stats&team_id=280]here is my team page[/url].

Lastly I set up a local database of IMDB ratings with a bot on Spidernet to query it.. fun fun ๐Ÿ™‚

Had a nice quiet day at school… after that I went to the Autosalon in Brussels.. watched some cars.. some nice, some ugly. Renault should get their act together cause the design really sucks ๐Ÿ˜‰

Still fixing what the downgrade broke.. somehow my nagios install is borked heavily. Smokeping still shows the usuall quirkyness (not creating images anymore).

Last class tomorrow of my (current?) school career ๐Ÿ™‚ ๐Ÿ˜€

Hmm… downgrading takes effort.. most of it is done now.. apache back up, mysql back up, dns back up, etc. Not all is fixed but it’s getting late now :s Stable – Testing 1-0 ๐Ÿ™‚

I forgot to add earlier that I created my very own OmniCode block (geekcode successor), here it is ๐Ÿ˜‰

Now that our project is over the days are actually pretty relaxed :z

My PXE setup is finally getting along, using a bootdisk by [url=http://www.emboot.com]emboot[/url] for vmware (although I can’t seem to boot floppy images with it, dunno if it’s emboot’s fault). [url=http://www.rom-o-matic.net]Rom-o-matic[/url] should really start supporting PXE though. ๐Ÿ™

Downgraded sunrise from Debian sarge to woody. (Still working on it, actually) Thanks to [url=http://people.debian.org/~osamu/downgrade.html]this nice description[/url] of how to do it ๐Ÿ™‚

I really need diskspace on sunrise so I added my wishlist to the site and a 4GB IDE disk at the top ๐Ÿ˜‰

While doing some other stuff I started Poogle, a searchengine/webspider written in TCL… Just for fun and experimentation. Currently still working on the html parsing ๐Ÿ˜‰
