Still Here

I’m still here — really. Work has been mad as always, my son just started Kindergarten and my daughter just started Second Grade, and I’ve been building a chicken coop too.

I’ve also been doing a fair bit of mucking around with building the upcoming R1.3 release of software for the Bug. They switched their build system from LTIB to Poky Linux:



That Poky Linux beaver may be the cutest darn thing I’ve ever seen, but I digress. The Bug now sports the Matchbox window manager rather than old man twm (we’ll miss you xeyes). It looks great, and the new touch screen driver is much more responsive than the old one. More on this when I’ve had more time to play with it.

For kicks, I just uploaded my Technical Books shelf (okay, the only one I bothered to scan books for at all) from Delicious Library to MobileMe. They did a pretty nice job making it look shiny:

Delicious Library

I feel compelled to point out that the old ActionScript books are there because of my wife’s Chumby (stagnating plans to write a widget for it).

Okay, back to reading some Arduino stuff…
