Well i ain't done shit today in terms of school work. Very bad of me. Just can't get into the mindset. That shell project is making me hurl.
caryn and i got a starbucks earlier. That was nice. I had some issues with the file server when i tried to get x11 to run with dri/drm mode. I don't want to talk about it. No data loss and i got afterstep running on it.
Looks like i stirred some trouble on the apple java list.. i'm ont the only one who hates the DVD policy. :)
Robert watson released an interesting patch for malloc today. It might prove useful in freebsd 5 or at least 6 current. Anything to speed it up at this point. malloc is used OFTEN.
afterstep is gnu licensed. i wish i could find a bsd licensed fricking window manager. (that doesn't suck)
I've decided to redo the jj site after talking to caryn and seeing some posts from other people. Maybe i can innovate :)
The sata patch seems stable on the bsd box.. i did a good job on that! The code in 6 current looks better though although i'm worried about one thing. Going to try that soon.
Caryn and I are going to install 6 current over her 5.3 release install from her school project. We want to experiment with it.
I am thinking of retaking ece357 in the fall as i doubt i'll bring my grade up enough to pass.
Mac OS 10.3.9 came out the other day. Seems much faster! I love that about apple.. each os release is faster. To bad microsoft can't do that. I don't think people could bitch about windows then assuming it worked of course.
Windows has its good points.. like hardware support. DAMN open source video support.
