xchat-gnome is not XChat
I installed Ubuntu 9.04 today on my EeePC and notice that the version of XChat I had installed seemed different. The first thing I noticed was it was called xchat-gnome and was build 0.xx. Knowing that XChat was up to version 2.8 I thought it seemed quite odd.
Eventful Day
Last night the boys friend Jayden stayed over. They had fun watching movies and playing the Playstation 2, they stayed up until midnight!
Today Chell and I took all the kids to Bowen for the day to swim and have fun, it was great. We stopped off at Ayr where the big rainbow serpent is and got photos of the kids.
Windows Vista on a ASUS 1000HE EeePC
The other day I got Chell and I an ASUS 1000HE EeePC (Black). Now this little netbook packs quite the punch. It lasts up to 9.5 hours on battery which is quite astonishing. It comes with Windows XP Home Edition and runs quite well, but what I wanted to do was install Windows Vista.
End of Easter
Well it’s coming to the end of the Easter holiday for me, and back to work tomorrow. So I thought I would write a post about what I got up to over easter, exciting right?
