Linux, Debian, Knoppix ..and things that doesn’t happen.
What the heck,I said.
I installed Debian on my Dell Optiplex XS 800Mhz Cpu after my attempts to install Windows XP failed on me.
Why? I don’t know. Alot of page faults, and even Debian had some problem initially installing the GNOME KDE. Crap I said… must be a bad memory bank or dodgy motherboard, or even poor video Chipset.
possible? Yep. but after rebooting and restarting APT , it works, so far so good.
Now, what I wanted to say today? I’m tired.Yes.
Slept at about 5am , way way over my time limit of 4am for any project. Cranky and tired, still I wanted to go out today…
And yes… at 2:30pm, I finally decided to go out…after making athira’s milk for the day. Wife keep on changing her mind, on whether she wanna follow or not. Having an absess on her arm doesn’t harm her , no?
So we went out. I felt a funny sensation today… and after reaching the M2 heading towards Whitstable, there were roadworks.
I, for one, love to drive fast, so I can reach there quick. Then after the Sheerness / Sittingborne exit…. I heard a huge Bang! Clang…thought I had a puncture..and I immediately veered to the shoulder… Rough juddering… did I burst both tyres??
What the Fuck I muttered, as I got out…no puncture…but then.. I noticed my tyre was out….off as it goes.
Broken steering Rack, off the CV bush.Darn! I just changed them last year before the MOT. Cuss Ali for fixing a dodgy one.
Cuss myself. My RAC cover was not on properly. Had to call someone. So? Call the Highways Agency from the SOS call box.
10 mins, and they were there, cordoning off the shoulder from afar… and with their blinkers …they are a protection against secondary accidents. But how did that happen? I suspect something I hit on the lane median… must be hard and big…. or I overloaded? Nah!
So the RAC came…can’t do anything…. 45mins after the Highways Agency paged them. And we were still waiting on the soft shoulder, off the safety barrier..and it was 4′c ….freezing my tail off. Had to call another lorry to pick the car up.
Darn!
I just heck care..and after 2hrs…we were back where we started. Home.
Now… time to nap, and then to do some R&D on the DEBIAN.
Time to get the Linux working with the WiFi.
Back to normal program, I suppose
