Knee Deep in Bagasse, and the Fire is still burning

Time surely flies when you are pulling 80hr weeks, and having no time off. It has been a long and tiring few months, but this absence from the blog I have managed to:

  • Helped 2 people install Kubuntu on their systems
  • Distributed 12 bootable linux cds
  • Managed to create a Control system development environment
  • Utilized VMware’s Player, and virtual machine installations of Windows 2k & XP
  • Removed my need to ever boot Windows again as the host OS
  • Picked up the pieces of an incomplete sugarcane syrup mill, and get it running in spite of itself
  • Started my quest for fluency en Español
  • Picked up a Sony PSP, and hacked it

I will continue to document, and write about my implementations of Open Source applications for business and personal use.

In the meantime, i just found an opensource Project Management program GanttProject which can open MS Project files, and export to various formats.

*Update: For a limited time, I will have 2 videos demonstrating my use of the Beryl graphics accelerated windowmanager as well as running windows in virtual machines: Demo2 (9.3MB), Demo3a (9.9MB)

**The video playing in my demo is the “Truth Happens” commercial from Redhat
