So, I gave up on OS X, and on Core 10, I've gone back to my loving Ubuntu Intrepid. Debian is still lacking in the kernel department, but I'm sure soon enough that will change and I'll be back to being a Deb-Head. I got my webcam working, and I'm pretty happy about that. I have my initial backup done, with one after I got everything configged to my liking and all my nice pretty packages installed. I've modded the backup script a bit though so it now uploads the backups to an FTP server, that way I have 2 "non-volatile" copies, as well as the one stored locally. I know it seems like a bit much, three copies of the same backups, but hey, better safe than sorry (a lesson all too well learned by most AFTER they lose everything). Despite a little flicker on the cube of compiz, the default radeonhd driver seems to be proving much more stable than it did on Fedora as well, plus, 3D games like Nexuiz are running awesome. I'm happy to say that I'm as much a Ubuntu fan as I ever was. Sorry for all the praise to Fedora, it was well placed, just a bit premature. I'm sure after a few months of updates Fedora will be quite an amazing desktop, but for now, it's still lacking a few essentials.

Coming soon to my blog - My sources.list for Intrepid, the backup script I'm currently using, and a few other surprises ;]

Yet again,
Happy Hacking,
