Took Chelle to the airport this afternoon. She's off to New Zealand for work for the next few days. Man I hate it when we are apart. Hopping into an empty bed at night, waking up in the morning and not seeing her cute face, really sux. I decided to take on some CD Shopping therapy and purchased the following new CDs. They're not ultra new but been wanting them for a while:
:: Powderfinger - Vulture Street
:: Toni Braxton - Ultimate
:: Robbie Willians - Escapology
A little peeved off that 'SPANISH GUITAR' isn't on this compilation, but I have it on one of her earlier CD's so I guess it aint an issue. We'll see if these will help pass the time. If they don't help I still have the Mandrake USB NIC dramas to keep my mind occupied. After last nights BBQ hopped on to 'hellsmouth' to try and compile a working driver (I think it's called a module) for the damn thing. I was up till 4:00am with no success. Compilation errors everywhere. You must give it to MS Windows, when you are supplied a driver for new hardware all you need to do is install it and it works 9.9 times out of 10. With Linux (in this case), I need to find the appropriate kernal source code and use it to compile one. Will keep trying tonight.
Posted by [jc] at January 11, 2004 11:13 PMWhere did you get the source from John? Was it on the Mandrake CD or did you have to get it from somewhere else? I'm guessing it comes with Mandrake but you need to recompile the Kernel and select if you want the USB NIC driver to be compiled into the Kernel or as a module. Should be no prob at all. Tell me more...
