Pete's Log: the battle rages on
Entry #800, (Life in General)(posted when I was 22 years old.)
So I headed to campus at 10ish because various pieces of software I wanted were not installed on realloc. So I arrive on campus and begin the epic struggle known as a "debian update" ... various version conflicts prevented me from succesfully installing what I wanted under "woody" so I switched my apt sources.list to use "sid", the new debian unstable. woody is now classified as "testing" ... anyway, with sid I was able to get most of what I wanted. So the battle didn't go too poorly. Then went to Nicks with Anne. They've got new menus there. Woo. Yay Nicks. Then returned home only to discover that X wouldn't start up on realloc. Maybe the battle didn't go so well after all. And all sorts of evil nfs daemons were running as well. So I shut those down, got X working again (only took about two minutes, cuz I fucking rock!) and am now finishing up business for today. Next I may find myself going to sleep before two am. Who'd've thunk.
