Up and running!
So it's been a while since I last posted anything here so i thought it would probably be a good idea in case blogger do a hotmail on me and throw away my account! Well my exams are over (thank god!) and i'm mostly working on finishing my dissertation which got good peer reviews at my last deliverable so everything is on track. Apart from that I've been doing alot on my Linux system. Firstly the biggest change has been my move from Ubuntu Edgy Eft to Ubuntu Fiesty Fawn which was a pretty good experience considering my previous moves from large releases with openSuse and Fedora Core. Lots of new goodies to play with including built in Desktop Effects via compiz and a working network manager plus built in dialogues for non-free codecs and drivers. There are lots of other notable upgrades most of which i've probably completely missed, some others include much better networking with windows clients via SMB and Avahi and Visualizations in Rhythmbox. To cut a long story short,
