The other day this old game popped into my mind, called Below The Root. I used to play it on my Tandy 1000 EX. A quick google lead me to a review and a place to download the game! Luckily it runs great with dosemu =) I vow to finally solve this game! And I won’t cheat and use the solution either! 🙂

Peter Stephenson announced today that
“zsh version 4.2.5 is now available at ftp.zsh.org and Sourceforge. This fixes some configuration problems and few other minor bugs. I’m not aware of any incompatibilities that would be introduced by upgrading from 4.2.4.”

I just realized today that usbnet is broken in 2.6.11.6 when I tried to connect to my Zaurus 860. Some googling lead me to the kernel changelog in which it states that a fix for that “brokeness” went in on March 17, 2005. I tried using 2.6.12-rc2 and the usbnet does indeed work with that. Alsa seemed to not really work though, but it’s only rc2 so I’m sure they’ll get it ironed out. Anyway just a note to let you 860 users out there (*cough* weasel *cough*) know that it’s not your fault! 😉

I’m going back to the console for my mail. Why? Because I’m finally fed up with graphical mail client weirdness. Read on for my reasons (read: ranting)

The Nvidia crew has released version 7167 of their drivers for use with linux on x86+x86-64. Check out nvnews.net for info. (So far my geforce 6800 works well with vanilla 2.6.11.3 and xorg 6.8.2)
