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.

Prodded mail. Builders arrived around midday to start putting
joists into the attic. Played with pulseaudio - why is my audio muted
on boot ? dug into it more and more - interesting, pulse believes alsa
for it's very first set of defaults, and alsa is configured by udev,
and (hopefully) system install. I need to debug system install instead.
-
Solomon over briefly, for lunch to sign contract. Discussion
with builders to re-assure them that, in fact the metalwork &
pad-stone should fit exactly where it's drawn.
-
Pulled children's cartoons from archive.org for babes to enjoy on the
road trip to (near) Scotland tomorrow morning. Tried to build 'thoggen'
and was stunned to see sourceforge demanding form
filling with my life story before it would let me download the
source archive - what gives ? - it turns out that the list of
mirrors failed to load, and the form below was a Verisign advert -
amazing. What sort of security concious person enters their personal
details into an embedded advert ? and why hinder people from reading
your white-papers (makes no sense at all to me).
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.
