I guess we’ll wait
As many of you may already know, Fedora 9 (codename: Sulphur) has been pushed back 2 weeks to May 13. Being the organizer of the Utah Fedora/Ubuntu Linux Release Party on May 3, its kind of hard to push it back because Ubuntu’s release is still on time.
I’m glad though that the major parts of [...]

Is Google Calendar really that Lucky?
I was perusing today, and maybe its just because its April Fools day and I’ve not posted, but I thought this was pretty hilarious…
If you click to add a new calendar item into Google Calendar, you get a new button “I’m Feeling Lucky”…
After clicking this new button I recognized, here’s what I got:
Woohoo! So right [...]
Google Summer of Code: Jumping into the fire
So I’ve done it.
Yes, I really have done it this time!
Well, maybe…time will tell.
I’ve gone and posted an idea for a project on the Fedora wiki page for the Google Summer of Code (GSoC), but that’s not all, no!
In addition, I took the time to apply to be a mentor at the Google Summer of [...]
Fedora 9 Beta is now available!
Get yourself some of that sulphur love!
From the mouth of the daring Mike McGrath:
The beta is live. Go out, get people and try to crash the servers! The
challenge is on :-P

Personally, I’ve been on Rawhide (the development tree) since February. While there have been some bumpy roads, most of it has been smooth sailing. These [...]
Fedora 9 Alpha Released
The latest and greatest Rawhide of Fedora has been put into an Alpha Release. I downloaded both the LiveCD and the DVD isos yesterday, which took 15+ hours.
Just a reminder that Alpha means its not ready for your production box, so test it extensively and give feedback. When the Beta comes out in March, I [...]
FUDCon: The Day After
So I’m back at work today after a very hard Sunday (fudpub was not friendly to me) at the slack^H^H^H^H^Hhackfest. However, I have to say that it was probably the best learning experience one could have at a conference. The BarCamp concept really worked well and I think it gave me some much [...]
My new Eeep C
This little machine is pretty nice. I’m getting used to the interface right now as the keyboard is a bit smaller than my normal T60p. A few keys are in a different spot, but overall, this little machine rocks!!
Probably my biggest headache right now is the right Shift key is further over than [...]
My Trip to Raleigh for FUDCon
I arrived in Raleigh today for FUDCon.
What? A little early, you say? Sure is, but I thought I’d get an entire week’s head start and help out the crew with preparations.
Okay… That’s not really true, but I am in Raleigh already. Because of my employment at Guru Labs, I asked if I [...]
Distro Comparison: openSUSE 10.3 - Day 5
I, unfortunately, can’t live in an environment like openSUSE without my bluetooth mouse. I struggled through for 5 days, but am now back on Fedora.
I really appreciate the opinions, comments and helpful guidance given and look forward to installing Ubuntu early next year and doing a similar, yet majorly biased, comparison to Fedora.
If nothing else, [...]
