These things we hold to be self evident...

... that on a 512Mb PC, Vista (even with all the frills turned off) will run like a dead dog reanimated by a necromantic asmatic budgie, and linux (in this case Fedora8) will scream around like a turbo-injected turbo-injection liking thing.

Samba had a nasty little surprise when I think I mixed GUI tools, but then I came to my senses and edited the .conf file (and even with vi not emacs!) and all became well again.

Luck, of a form

I suppose I should be glad I decdied to drag my bell tent into the house and hang it over the stairs to make sure it was aired for the coming season...
as it appears to have been nibbled in the garage,
and I have found 3 CD sized holes in it.

Does anyone know much about patching canvas?

Slightly worse?
