Stuff Michael Meeks is doing
|
|
This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit my employer
Novell which is an amazing company, and also
Dell who in days of yore provided me with a
free laptop for Gnome development / conferences.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.

- Poked at mail. Amazed to discover that setting up the machine with
a non-resolving hostname is apparently a non-bug; despite the appalling symptoms
of timeout-ness that it brings. Dug at reducing the worst breakage here, it seems
SmsGenerateClientID cause serious grief when the networking is broken - of course,
even starting an interactive shell also takes serious time in such a situation, urgh.
- Poked at the sabayon login performance problem I'm seeing, submitted
a fix. Back to back conference calls. Call with Dave, on to evolution bug filing,
built the latest gnome-2-22 packages to try to isolate the bug. Call with Radek,
Kendy & Jon.
- Spent the evening with slices of the wife - between lengthy incoming
phone calls for her; started The Box of Delights in the not-horribly-abridged
version: wow, the book not only makes more sense, but is far better too.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Novell, The
Lithuanian Gov't or Arnold Schwarzenegger. It's also important to
realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences,
bio.
or fun.
