I attended the Tulsa State Fair last night with Maryna and some friends. We caught the end of a Chinese Circus act, which was the most entertaining part of the evening.
I finally got the installation of SuSE 8.2 to go beyond the disk format on my desktop machine. I had to put it into safe mode, something about the driver for the hard drive is not quite right in the regular mode. It is installing like a champ now. Now to figure out xinetd *grin* I like the fact that it disallows connections by default. This is a commendable approach to security. I like several things about the latest version of SuSE, notably support for RPM packages.
I left my laptop hooked up to my printer while I left to do laundry. An hour and a half latter, when I returned, an inch thick pile of paper had accumulated and my printer was still running. The scheduled amount of reading that I have to do in the coming week is impressive, but I'm up for it. I have two goals for the week. I wish it were one, but I have two classes to keep up work for. Goal one is to complete a draft for a paper on security. I know what the focus is going to be. I have already gathered a significant amount of supporting resources (my large reading list) so I only have to read and write. My second goal for the week is to complete my home work for Data Structures II. I am more than half way with this so one good days effort should put me close. The fact that I will be on vacation from work is going to aid me greatly in my quest to complete these goals.
