Today I watched Josie and the Pussycats. That’s about it really… at the moment I’m singing along (badly as usual) to the soundtrack to Once More With Feeling (the musical episode of Buffy), forgetting the words as I go. I’m also compiling a CVS snapshot of XFree86, so it’d better work… results from other Gentoo users seem to be mixed, but I really want to see XCursor…
Well I’ve got just about all of GNOME 2.2.0 final installed now… some of the dependencies on the ebuilds were awful, but I got around it by forcing them into a different order. Since they’re not release-quality ebuilds yet, I didn’t mind too much.
What I do mind is that GTK+ 2.2.1 appears to have broken coloured tabs in Galeon CVS… either that or it’s the new GNOME libgnomeui. I shall have to grab an updated version of Galeon and see if it’s fixed, but I’m disappointed - this is supposed to be API/ABI stable, but it’s not. Additions are all very well, but when things stop working, something’s going wrong.
Totally out of nowhere, the Haus people just came round, took away the grotty brown sofa upon which it is impossible to sit comfortably and replaced it with a not-quite-so-grotty red sofa, upon which it is not only possible to sit comfortably, it is also possible to lie down comfortably!
I’m absolutely shocked. Anyway, now all we have to do is get replacements for the two armchairs which are totally past their use-by date, and we’ll have the best lounge ever!
Well, except for the lack of a 50″ widescreen plasma TV and surround sound system, that is.
Survived Refreshers’ Fayre, last time I have to do that thank the Goddess. Unfortunately I haven’t managed to play any Simcity 4 today. Gotta do some of that tomorrow, and also work on my project. I have lots of scribbles on bits of paper about the contextual analyser, things to change that may or may not prove beneficial. I think it’s time to import the whole lot into CVS and start keeping track of it that way.
What fun, now I have to learn how to admin a CVS server…
The new look is now here… well, some of it anyway. You may notice that large numbers of pages that aren’t used much (archives and so forth) are seriously mucked up at the moment, this will change as I gradually re-write them all to fit in. However, this page and the comments posting page are both sorted, which are, I think, the most important besides maybe the one for reading extended entries, which I’m going to go and fix right now.
