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.

Amazed to discover my Epson Stylus has been draining it's
black ink, and managed to go through an entire, external chunky
reservoir of it over the last weeks - and amazingly without any
(visible) ill effects in the printer. Obviously, they seal the
head-cleaning, ink leakage are well - prolly to avoid customers
complaining about wasteage. The real questions are - why only the
black ink ? is this because the power was off ? and so on; most
annoying.

Lunch, carpenter turned up to mess about with some tounge
and groove planking. Chat with JP, poked at governance quickly,
and got back to bootcharting. Seemingly we got a baby-sitter for
tonight - horay.

While grubbing around at readahead, I discovered that the
SUSE kernel git repository is at gitorious
these days. Branched and set a kernel building in the build-service,
fun. Failed, once again to persuade Greg that it is a lunacy to
have to build all these tens of Mb of binary, to change just one
file (with no ABI impact at all).
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.
