Well, I couldn't wait :P

Yea yea, I said April 6th. too bad, I installed Ubuntu Saturday, and have finally got it all nice and clean, working with a custom kernel (I actually compiled myself! 2.6.10-686 woot) and the freaking Radeon drivers (what hell you gotta go through to install those things and have 3d acceleration working). Also everything updated to latest Hoary Hedgehog packages. Yea, and not on the other hard drive either (well...I did, but I installed it on mine too, so I'm on a Dual boot with it and WinXP) because I broke my Knoppix. I tried upgrading my previously installed 3.4 to 3.7, but it turns out the 3.7 install didn't have the internet working :P So scrapped that and installed Ubuntu. Never thought I'd acutally like a Gnome-based distro, buts its so clean and fast. Even though I did install XFCE which loads even faster. Its amazing, less than 3 seconds to boot my desktop and stuff, of ourse I gotta wait that 1 minute while everything linux loads all the drivers and stuff. I gotta figure out a way to cut down those load times too...

I've also messed with the blog template a bit and added 2 links! Of course more to come Soon :)
