Thursday 27th July 2006

My day has involved installing and reinstalling programs on my computer so I can do some work. I blame ** services entriely for me not getting dressed before 4pm.

1. My computer has been set–up TERRIBLY by **. Today I have reinstalled both linux and windows twice
– windows is on /sda1 partition, linux on /sda6
– sda1 couldn't be mounted to /windows/C for some errors or other
– Windows currently not recognising network adaptor or ethernet
– gnome is much better than kde! and ssh works better with it
– suse 10.1 comes with not much. Emacs, kdvi &c. need to be added

2. This blog builder doesn't work properly with linux

3. xypic comes with teTeX, and the documentation that comes with xypic for installation is extremely un–normaluserfriendly.

4. A good website for configuaring suse 10.1:
