6/1/07 Unix Alarm Clock

I couldn't find my cell phone (i use it as an alarm clock) so I went on a little adventure to find one for Linux. I finally settled on this nifty little console jockey command, hey, it works..........

sleep 5h && cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp


That will wake anybodies fat ass up in the morning

5/31/07 - Ubuntu Linux

Wow...... as an avid computer dork I am SERIOUSLY impressed with this distro, installed without a hitch and I love the LiveCD installation idea. Finally, a linux distro that stomps the shit out of microsoft when it comes to GUI human-computer interaction. Vista ain't got shit on Ubuntu, especially when I install Beryl for a little eye candy :)

Thank god for South African entrepreneurs !!!



Beryl notes:

in etc/X11/xorg.conf you had to set the pixels depth to 16 instead of 24 because your video cards memory was filling up
