KVM joy
Posted : Monday March 23rd, 2009

Well I hooked up my new KVM and all is mostly well with both systems. My Ubuntu screen is still not as high a resolution as Vista but at least it's not squashed.

Vista is okay except for some strange networking problems that I can't explain. There's no error but I get served blank pages from websites (in IE and Firefox) and looking at the same site in Ubuntu (in Firefox and Opera) there is no problem. The connection is the same so there's something bizarre at an OS level here.

In other news, kind of a mixed bag.

I need to update a program I don't have the latest source for. :( I believe it was lost in the great XP crash of December. I decompiled what I have and compared it to the source I do have but there's a number of things that changed and decompiling doesn't make for the greatest source.

On the plus side of the ledger I am now a SCJP. I got my pretty certificate and a strange credit-card looking thing in the mail on Friday.

Finally, I need to go to the dentist. :| I think I have a cavity.

It only hurts when I breathe.

(Get to the dentist!)
