Hello! This is my first post, so I'd like to say hi to all of you in here at plug ;)
It's really nice to hear that there's such a wonderful group of pinoys running amok here at plug, when I first seen of it when I was googling around for a "ph linux user group" at Google/Linux. Too bad, though, that the plug.linux.org.ph site has been quite out of date since April 2003(?), so much for the lightning-fast pace of free software... though, I expect, that with such fine people here I'd say that would not be much of a problem :) I myself have been doing some Web work on my own space, but a lot of local hacks here has been keeping me down for most of the time... As I'm writing this, I'm baking myself a new cake out of Wine CVS, since like most folks out there, I'm on a dual-boot, Debian and WinXP sharing the space of my Samsung HD. Though I myself don't have the trouble of having linuxen as my OS of choice, my old folks still need the intoxicating and inflaming features of Microsoft($UX) software. Still, with Linkin Park's Faint ringing in my ears, I'm nearing the goal of setting fire on my fat32 partition and saying goodbye to the Devil ;) In other things: for those Ragnarok gamers out there, I've seem to be able to run that fine program off Wine 2003xxxx (Debian testing); hats off to the Wine developers for their good work. I've yet to see this goin on wine-cvs though, so stay tuned... life on the bleeding edge is hard, as they say... Also, I've got gnome2.4 (from sid, now its in sarge) working splendidly, although there are still some rough edges to be sanded, like gkdial crashing on disconnect (yep, I'm still on a modem... worse yet, on a software modem :( anyone willing to buy me a good serial modem? thanks in advance ;) Okies, wine-cvs's still not done brewin', but I've got to sign off. Send me a rant or a rave, for all I care. I'll just take a hat off and be of service to you... And stay alive :) Zakame -- |*-------------ZAK B.
