Heron nvidia-glx-new after upgrade
This was the only way I could get nvidia drivers working after the upgrade to Heron Beta.
sudo apt-get –purge remove nvidia-glx* nvidia-kernel-common nvidia-settings
sudo rm /etc/init.d/nvidia-*
sudo update-rc.d nvidia-kernel remove
sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`
Then I had to do sudo nvidia-xconfig
reboot again
good to go.
Twitter, the Evil
Yes, twitter has taken away from my blog time, no doubt. Twitter is an evil evil web based circle of hell, and I can’t stop. Somehow, I will get out of the habit, but first, I must twitter more.
For the record $HOME/bin works by default in Ubuntu, so you can make youself a /home/yourname/bin directory, put your scripts in there, and run them. Bang!
Technology Leadership Award
Here are a couple of pictures of me getting the Technology Leadership Award. It was a great honor, being that I was the only person to get it out of 25 divisions. I am still dizzy. This is Secretary Choprah and myself and me doing my acceptance speach. It was short, I got interestingly emotional.
I won
Today, I was presented with the Technology Leadership Award by the Southside Virginia Technology Consortium. Wow. More to come.
