Well, I have installed MC.

I am back to #ubuntu-ru and there is very funny there.

Also I've uploaded smiles for Pidgin...

All set? )))

My OS loads upadates for itself. I help it, but I have no idea what are these updates. Feel a bit silly. Wanna do nothing after weekend. It was just a little crazy and very active :) Pool, riding etc.

I found out I can rotate 3D Compiz desktops with touchpad. Nice :)

Oh, damn! Something happened with Gnome PPP while I was typing this message... So I had to learn how to configure wvdial. Well, I did it.

As I told today the friend of mine: Usually I feel very stupid and lame. But I do will learn how to do something. And then will be upset because others are so stupid

I have set up Jabber. I wasn't able to find it in Pidgin protocols earlier because it has different name: XMPP. Everything works perfect. Also I had an idea to change smile pack in Pidgin, but can do it. If anyone has experience, please help. I can't copy smilepack to appropriate folder, cause i have no permissions. i tried with cp from console. Same effect from common console - no permissions. And something strange from root console. cp command succeeded, but i can't see files in the folder. ls shows them from root console. But same ls from user console shows only old folders. So the pre-installed directory viewer does. Have no idea where I have copied the files... I suppose I will need HDD formatting as soon as I find out how to use the OS :) Also it will be good idea to get Midnight Commander.

My next step will be Wine, but I don't feel self-confident enough to start working at it.

Also friend of mine made a great joke. I asked him if he knows how to open console with keyboard keys. And he told me to press Ctrl+Alt+F1
So I am is console, but not common console window, just bash. exit does not work... startx does not work... next idea was to press Crtl+Alt+F2. No success. Just another console, tty2

Well, after few experiments I found out that graphics work on 7-th console... Damn ) I hate him )

And of course he posted our fucking dialogue to bash...

My brother told me I should learn how to compile linux core. I suppose he is too fast. I do will, just a little bit later :)

I set up IRC on Pidgin, but was kicked on #ubuntu-ru again. Can't connect. I will try to find out. Maybe later today or next time. Currently I entered #ubuntu-women but all are dead there.

Настроение сейчас - hooray!

I did it! Inet is now working. I am writing this post from linux. The problem was solved simply. I just had to enter any username and password to standard Gnome caller (empty username and pass causes error) and set flag "ignore username and password request" in connection settings. And that's it. I'm done ;)

Now I can move to linux. The only reason that stopped me was impossibility to read inet mans from here. No I do not need to reboot each time and I am happy :)

Pidgin icq is also working. IRC connection and Wine will be the next step. I love this world.

I located wvdial already installed on my HD. So I do not need to install it again. Still having some problems with inet. For some reason wvdial asks requests /dev/modem, not /dev/ttyACM0 where real modem is. I read I should run wvdialconf for automatic configuration. They write I will just need to input my esername and password. But it is still unclear according initialization string. Also it deos not even ask for dialing number. Maybe something wrong... But I'll check.

I brought 2 cans of beer home today. Someone is sleeping so I can't turn on music loud. I can't turn it on even in headphones cause the only headphones I have are ones with the phone and it is plugged to the comp with its single mini USB port.

Just another day, still not on linux. I decided to have a break. So currently I've been reaing according this theme. I found interesting article according device mounting. I may help me in future.

I also hang on irc channel dedicated to ubuntu. There are great people there: they are always nice to help and have good humor. So I keep laughing reading the channel.

You get get there With IRC client or plugin. Host is irc.freenode.net, port is 6667 and channes calls #ubuntu-ru

Now i am not banned on #ubuntu-ru channel. So I have entered there and asked according the GPRS modem. I found out how to tune GNOME phone connection. But there was one problem. My operator asks username and password to be empty. So connection hands while veryfieng the password and modem disconnects. So i have to unplug it and plug again to make computer see it. Pal on ubuntu channel offered me to install alternate diling program named wvdial. As i realize this program allows working with ppp directly, that is why it allows to eliminate problem with login.

I have an example of config file so I need just to install the program. maybe this time i will succeed. I was very happy with that solution yesterday, so I've forgotten to download soft before rebooting to linux. So I had to reboot again under Win and download it. And then i realized it is already 3 am and I am extremely tired. So I solved to install the program later and get asleep.

Your experience is not valuable at all. It helps you just a little, but causes big damage in some cases. You this that you are an expert, but time comes and you face something completely new. You think that your experience will help. but it just prevent you from seeing situation completely and from making conclusion. you have to see everything clear. With no influence of any prior fails or successes. open your mind.

I found some manuals for motorola usb modem installation and tuning for Linux. I think I'll do it this night.

I feel like complete idiot. Today I switchched comp on. And what do I see? My fucking linux boots successfully and tunes brightness to appropriate level _by itself_!!! Oh, well. I was such shocked, and few minutes passed before I realized why it is so. Yesterday I switched off non-propriate drivers. It just needed reboot for changes. So, everything is ok no, so do Fn buttons. They work now. Feel completely silly.

I found out that Compiz works ok too. At least windows that stick to screen borders.

But I have another problem now. How to configure Internet connection? It is something strange that I have never seen before there. It never asked for initializing line for modem, but asked for APN. I did not asked for number for dialing. But asked for login and password. I have an idea I need to write conf file, but have no idea where and what exactly this file have to contain. Built-in manuals are no help. ISP tech support hang on by my request and then told me they have no info. Well, I did not expect much of them.

Also I'm not sure OS even see modem. Cause I browsed through system interfaces and found no modems there. Maybe, I have looked in wrong place.

Fight!

I was banned on #ubuntu-ru
Why? What for? I've decided to eliminate counter of fucks. It is unreasonable.

First day on linux. I said "fuck" 2764 times.

At first I have no idea how to tune brightness. It in on lowest level while booting. And Fn laptop buttons does not work. This Runtu is awful. I should have installed kubuntu 7.10 - last time I have tested it everything was ok. Unfortunately, I have no disc now. Surfing for solution.

Second problem is that I can't find where to set up internet connection. I found strange fields to fill in, but none of them bring me to connect button. Feel live medeival man. Lol.

Fear is just mystical scapegoat laden with the one's inactivity.

Fear does not exist. Remember this. There is noone to blame. Live your life as you like it. Dream on.

Deutschland in deiner schwärzesten Stunde.
Du bist verlassen, doch nicht allein.
Mit dir sind treue Kameraden im Bunde.
Der morgige Tag wird unser sein.

Hass und Vergeltung haben wir uns geschworen.
Unserer Herzen sie wurden zu Stein.
Doch tief in dem Stein da brennt noch ein Feuer.
Die Flamme der Freiheit lodert und raucht.

Fern von Norden nahen Schiffe wie Drachen.
Ihre Kiele, sie knirschen am Strand.
Deutschland, oh Deutschland, du wirst erwachen.
Ein neuer Morgen geht auf überm Land.

Deutschland erwache!

Oh, soldier of love, what you've got?
Just another target to shot

Is that beauty you have to retrieve?
Or just how all this world gonna be?

Load your weapons, no way to regret
If you ever have loved, just forget

And no matter you like it or not,
It's your war, so go on and shot!

Just take a look...

I read Diana s diary lately. She published shots of her new embrodery pictures. They are very nice so I have an idea to do something like that by yourself. The ones I love to do the best are landscape pictures. So cureently I'm searching for appropriate autumn landscape scheme/
