mdlbear: blue fractal bear with text "since 2002" (Default)
[personal profile] mdlbear
I took the occasion of powering down to install a new UPS as an excuse for doing some long-needed maintenance. During the process (which started late yesterday afternoon after our group meeting) I got many surprised comments from passers-by who noticed the fact that I was running in a text terminal instead of my usual ctwm desktop -- since this is a Linux box, it gets rebooted about once every other blue moon.

So I'm back to ctwm on my heavily-tweaked RedHat 7.3 (their last decent one; the move to Debian is next on the docket) with a new-for-me IBM Model M keyboard (the One True Keyboard) from Weird Stuff and my Logitech Trackman FX (their last decent one). All my stuff is off the 120Gig drive, so I can blow it away to fix the mistakes I made formatting it the first time.

Life is pretty good.
