  • Status Update: Zero’s Transformation

    As of this writing, Zero is now a Linux From Scratch rig. All she can do at the moment is run XFree86 4.2.0, watch TV on her spanking new Radeon All-in-Wonder (but no sound as yet, need a mixer) and accept email directed to my username at zero.kgon.com.

    Next up: Install GNOME from sources, install Evolution from sources, get SSH, SNMP and Apache+PHP working, install some truetype fonts, get cd ripping and burning to work, and perform various other small install processes that need doing along the way. Hell, I might even put KDE3 onto this thing. All of this not necessarily done in the order stated here.

  • Another Not-really-worthless Page

    Discarding the simple elegance of her previous design, Celina (a.k.a. Mononoke of #KNRK fame) has put up a new page, and this time there are words and pictures! Oh, and she makes lots of nice comments about yours truly. How can I not link to her after reading her page, hmm?

    (Update: Thanks to peach-pit for pointing out that I’m a dork. All that typing and no link to the page in question. Duh.)

  • Three day weekend, of sorts

    I took Friday off from work to visit OMSI with my son Alexander’s 4th grade class. We got to see the “Brain” exhibit, which was only mildly interesting; we watched a live broadcast from the KOIN 6 meteorology studio; we played in the turbine room a lot. Note to self: family membership at OMSI.

    Saturday was spent at home with the kids. Sunday was spent at home with the wife and kids. Great quantities of Heroes IV was played by all. Considerable quantities of 4×4 Evolution was played by some.

    We had pizza for dinner on Saturday night, while I prepared my infamous shells-and-cheese dish for dinner last night. Wendi insisted on doing the cheese layering, however. Since she wanted to so badly, I let her use the food processor to grate the cheese as well. That thing’s noisy, but effective.

    And now you have the weekend update. I’m sorry it’s not as funny as that seen on Saturday Night Live, but them’s the breaks.
