Got Red Hat Linux w/ KDE 3.2.2 up and running

April 28th, 2004

Of all the time I spent this weekend “computer lifing”, all of it was spent getting Red Hat Linux 9 installed on my main desktop and getting the network card on the motherboard to work. It’s not normally supported by Red Hat, as it was released after Red Hat 9 was released. I had to get a few file packages to get it to work. Then, I spent the rest of the time getting KDE 3.2.2 installed. It’s very slick.

My RD9/KDE3.2.3 environment. I know, I had a typo. “I weight”… funny. I fixed it in the real blog entry.

I took the direction on tweaking my space from ArsTechnica’s review of KDE 3.2.2.

Two weeks into it…

And I’ve lost 10.4 pounds. I’m thrilled. I’m a bit apprehensive about it though, as it’s a bit TOO MUCH, TOO FAST. However, my summer of marathon training ahead of me should keep it off and keep it COMING OFF! Toot toot! Naaah.

I’m just excited to see if I can get to a lower weight than I was the previous two summers.
