Aaaargh. The worst virus attack I’d ever seen. I’d gotten infected by a low risk virus W32.Nimida, and I asked the scanner to repair the system. The f*king antivirus took the liberty of deleting nearly every executable on my hard drive.
Back to linux for me. Now that I won’t be doing any major coding or computer intensive task, I wanna configure ubuntu to just play music and read websites.
I got beryl working right after a long time. It looks nice, and I absolutely *love* the drop shadows near the windows. Wonder why nobody uses it for webdesign.
I got the entire system configured very fast. In under 20 minutes (of course I wrote a shell script and let it run for about three hours installing and configuring all my software). It would’ve been faster if I’d installed debian, but the local mirror is broken and xserver won’t start if people install it, so I left it at that.
After lots of coaxing, Iluvatar’s finally putting a local mirror for ubuntu, this would make a lot of difference for me.
I was just used to the windows fonts for a long while and my website looks a little odd in linux, but still pretty good.
More later.
