Another thing I like about Xandros is that when I compile software and install it using checkinstall it keeps track of it. Even packages I imported using alien were kept track of. Nice....

Interesting.....

I've been using Xandros for some time now, and I'm getting used to using it more and more often. Last night I was able to install Diablo II on my Xandros machine last night as well as finally get my ZSNES installation working last night. My sound worked as soon as I hooked up some speakers. Hook up my joystick, and I'm in business.

Keeping the blog alive :)

My Xandros machine at work is humming along just fine. I installed Mozilla on it, as well as Firefox 0.9 (which I accidentally trashed by installing a wayward extension), Xine, and I'm trying to get the dvdrip program to work. Zinf never worked on this machine, so I insalled Yammi for my audio library. That really sucked, too, for I liked Zinf for its ability to organize music.
Don't have Xmame, snes9x or zsnes yet, but that's coming. Also need to install Java/eclipse/Ant as well.

What about my home Xandros machine? Since I got it up and going I haven't touched it too much. I installed a WineX package I built at work. It works okay, but crashes if I leave it idle too long. Not a problem as long as I keep saving my Starcraft games often. I haven't had a chance to record any shows to computer or perfect my AutoHotkeys solution to setting up a timer for recording shows, yet, but that'll be in the future.

Some days it seems so hard to pick myself up and get any work done. There are plenty of things that I can tinker with on my computer that I allow myself to get distracted. I'm working on that.
