Sunny Afternoon
Today has been a glorious day! Bright sunshine all day but with a hint of chill on the air. Pretty much my ideal day seeing as I burn in winter and hate being hot.
I really have not achieved as much as I would have liked today though. I have tidied out my car and am on my way to give it a good old clean on the outside. That is about it, I had hoped to get some general tidying and sorting done today too, but the hoover still has no bag, so I can’t finish anything off.
I hope the next week is as nice as I have a few little bits and bats planned.
I have also decided that I need to start learning to use linux properly as it cannot be as bad as I remember it. Plus, with me starting some computing modules in September which are all programming modules I will have to use it so might as well acclimatise.
Computing modules? Excellent, which ones?
Anything you want to know about Linux, just ask. I’m happy to help
I am going to be doing about 60 credits of computing modules, probably three programming ones.
Well I am hoping to instal and run linux as the sole OS on my new desktop – eventually planning to use it as a projects machine. Sat in DEC10 as I type, looking at a few websites and trying to get my head around the whole thing.
Cool, well the first step is to choose your distro, then you can choose how you want to configure it and what you want to run on it.
A good starter distro is Ubuntu, although if you new desktop isn’t a high spec machine you will go faster using xubuntu.
There are plenty of forums out there to browse and ask questions on and as usual, google is your friend
