An Old Friend

I figured I’d put out a little blurb for an old friend I haven’t talked to in a while. Check out Arafax at:

Obama Wins.

Kamisamanou Burgess — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 04:36:57 +0000

Obama has won after John McCain conceded in the election. I am not surprised, though I voted hopefully for Mr. McCain. The only positive aspect of this is that despite the moral debauchery that will present itself during his reign, the Internet will be an open platform should he have anything to do with it. I long for the care-free life of a 14yr. old and therefore, I digress.

Dual-Boot Status Update

Kamisamanou Burgess — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 03:58:02 +0000

I’ve changed my mind about dual-booting Fedora x and gNewSense x delta_. I have been using gNewSense 2.1 deltah for a while now and find the experience absolutely wretched. I will, however, attempt a dual-boot of Fedora x and Fedora (x-1). As a result, I will try to install Fedora 9 and Fedora 10 over the course of Thanksgiving break. If anyone knows how I may go about that post a link in the comments.

Voted

I just voted for the first time in my life. It was quite interesting and I am proud to have made a modicum of a difference in the unfolding of the future.

A First Time for Everything

Today, minutes ago, we sang every verse of Amazing Grace. This is the first time I’ve had that privelege in my twenty years of existence. While we did sing only five of the six that are in the public domain version of Amazing Grace, our hymnal only contains those. Therefore, I consider those five completion.

Dual-Boot Status Update

I’m running gNewSense “deltah” 2.1 right now as I type. Unfortunately, I won’t have the time to fool with Fedora 9 in the next few days. I have to write a paper, a speech, gather information for my psychology paper, and do my math homework…by Wednesday morning. I will post a review of gNewSense later.

Going for a Dual-Boot

Kamisamanou Burgess — Sun, 19 Oct 2008 18:15:50 +0000

I’m about to set up a dual-boot of gNewSense and Fedora. As a result I’ll need to format everything and I won’t be able to use my computer for a couple of hours. I’ll let you know how it goes later.

Setting up the Broadcom 4318 Airforce One B/G on Fedora 9 Guide is Here!

Kamisamanou Burgess — Fri, 17 Oct 2008 16:11:31 +0000

Long after the release and just before the release of Fedora 10, I have finally started running Fedora 9. Despite believing that most probably already have their wireless running by now, I went ahead and typed up the guide to do it. Head over to the Fedora Docs section and pick up the pdf. It prints on one page and is excellent when you don’t want to keep it open on your computer.

Fanning the Flame

I have been a long time user of OpenOffice.org(Yes, this is a program you install on your computer.) and have been quite pleased. Unfortunately, Microsoft came along and made a new office format for their 2007 suite. I haven’t been able to open it, but OpenOffice.org 3.0 just released and remedies that problem among others. This thoroughly excites me and many others and is manifested on the now crippled www.openoffice.org. Go there and get your copy, but don’t fuss because the website isn’t that pretty!

Getting Help

Kamisamanou Burgess — Sun, 12 Oct 2008 14:12:31 +0000

After the thought had occured to leave Fedora I went to FedoraForum.org to get some help. The people have spoken and if your having trouble with SiS Graphics Cards check this thread out.
