Feisty Fawn
I haven’t done much geek-worthy lately. I did see that Ubuntu released version 7.04 (feisty fawn). I may give that a try on my laptop. I hope my wireless card and PDA synchronization are better supported.
In other Linux news, I see both Dell and Intel will be raising their Linux availability:
Dell Expanding Linux Option (in response to user requests on Dell’s Idea Storm)
Intel Uses Linux on New Mobile Internet Devices (in addition to Windows based UMPCs)
Hello:
You are invited to watch the Ubuntu Tribe movie trailer.
Thank you and nice to meet you!

Hey Uncle Ed,
Just put 7.04 on a old (P4, yadda, yadda) compaq, with Hauppague-PVR 150, and 250GB HD, for my new MythTV DVR! the feisty fawn install was smooth (athough I wasn’t really paying attention and I think i missed the place where I could custom install, that is, it just installed, and i never got the chance to pick development packages, etc., oh well, apt-get works great.) Oh and if you haven’t built the DVR yet (see your new year’s post) the MythTV-ubuntu set up seems to work.
