Journal intermodal's Journal: back, mostly 2
now that I've finally gotten everything reinstalled more or less (minus my data and a few network security tools, which are compiling right now), I'm more or less back up and running. compare and contrast:
Previous setup:
2.4.20-gentoo-r6 kernel
30GB IBM TravelStar hard drive
Lots of software
Current setup:
2.4.20-gentoo-r7 kernel
10GB IBM TravelStar hard drive (my spare)
small BeOS Developer Edition 1.1 partition for compatibility testing
software still compiling
GAIM being a bitch
well, at least Galeon worked this time. I'm still not clear what was wrong with it, but the untimely death of the old hard drive sort of made that point not really matter. It stopped once I updated my gnome libraries to 2.4 vintage, and it was clearly gconf related, but I'm still not really sure what it boiled down to being the problem or how to fix it.
let's hear it for something other than magnetic storage!
