teacher Posted June 22, 2003 Author Share Posted June 22, 2003 I saw a bright yellow flower on my computer. Oh, that was the live CD. Still have to think about the mouse before I do anything.Tonight is no longer for serious stuff. Time to relax. It is Sunday after all. Aren't we suppose to rest today? We sure have not let Bruno rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teacher Posted June 24, 2003 Author Share Posted June 24, 2003 Bruno I reinstalled today! Needed something to do so I played around with my partitions.

Bruno Posted June 24, 2003 Share Posted June 24, 2003 Looks good Julia !Next time you re-install don´t over-write your /home partition ( hdb6 ) and all personal settings ( mail, addresses etc. ) will be saved !You did really well . . . . . an additional /backup partition would be the next project for the NEW computer :D Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teacher Posted June 24, 2003 Author Share Posted June 24, 2003 Actually, I can't figure that out because I managed to save a lot of those things. I lost my Internet booksmarks for galeon but I kept my address book for evolution! I know somethings were installed in unusual places before. Home had decided it wanted 2/3 of my HD and I just tried to resize it back down in the range of someone's suggestions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teacher Posted June 24, 2003 Author Share Posted June 24, 2003 It there is one thing I am getting plenty of experience in, it is the install. I have my gkrellm program up and running and configured as well. Did you notice all the questions I had this time? Anything I should add while I am in that mode? You know when you are on a streak, run with it!No Quint, not another flavor today! (He should come running about now. His radar is pretty finely tuned. Notice I did not say S........).

Bruno Posted June 24, 2003 Share Posted June 24, 2003 JuliaOur big favorite: the kdeedu packages. So we can take a walk and look at the stars ??Maybe try Celestia again . . . last time it chashed, remember ? This time you might have more luck . . .

teacher Posted June 24, 2003 Author Share Posted June 24, 2003 BrunoJust for you I am going for the stars. I promise, I did not say the S...... word. Quint just knows when to come running! Do you really think I should try Celeste again? Without any graphics accelleration? Do you not think that would be living dangerously? Well, then again, look who I hang out with - the Penguin and Quint!Now I have to go figure out why evolution keeps multiplying and popping up on my screen ever few minutes. Must go check settings. I see Kdeedu is now installing itself!Quint. Don't rush me! Keep the sweet talk up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teacher Posted June 24, 2003 Author Share Posted June 24, 2003 If Celeste does funny things to my computer, I might come to Amsterdam looking for one penguin! It is installing now! I can use edutainment and celeste! Now, I have been home from work for a couple of hours, and I have done all my updates, installed my programs, made it look easy.Quint, I just might be closer than you think. Maybe I better pick up that Rute book off the floor and start looking around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
