rfunk | Today's little updates

02:57 frustrated by a damaged DVD, but somewhat mollified by online screenplay archives. #
13:21 getting weird mouse lag sometimes after upgrading Ubuntu to "jaunty" -- on one machine but not the other. #
13:22 got all ready to call about DSL problems, but now it's been fine for 10-15 minutes. I hate it when that happens. #
14:48 fixed DSL by replacing phone cable with a short one. They claim the old cable got broken down by DSL signals. Time maybe; signals doubtful. #
16:32 upgraded to a dual-monitor video card; can't get anything but a mouse pointer on the screens now. I'm such an optimist about my upgrades. #
21:50 Fixed the new video card by maxing out AGP aperture. I don't know either. Maybe I'll lose depth-of field and gain light. #
21:52 One of the cats looks like he slept in mud. And now he wants to come inside to sleep in the bed. #
