so after a day on the battle field of linux bourne again shells and changing runlevels to check if system updates were applied properly i sit, and type on the keys of my newly tamed ubuntu 6.0.6 dapper drake operated dell inspiron 6000. udated this crap using a 256mb connection yes it took forever 8hrs to finish downloading the update files anda bout 45 minutes to apply them. after that my wireless was broken and phpmyadmin wasn’t working properly, after digging through my conf.inc.php files for php myadmin and tampering with the blow_fish_secret variable i got php myadmin up, the wifi was way more trouble, tried bcm42xx-fwcutter but to no avail, turns out that it doesn’t support my card’s drivers (bcmwl5a.inf). so i ended up reverting to ndiswrapper. did this maybe 3 times before getting it properly, but next time my wifi breaks it wont take me more than 1 min to fix cuase i know it inside out :D, after all cli work i was in the mood for scripting so did some php work this lil project i got comming up (tshirt designs previewable via a website :D) and now i need to get food cause i haven’t eaten becuase of all this work from morning.
