First I’d like to apologize to the Planet readers, I know some of them don’t like the “please-help-me-to-buy-something” or “i-bought-this-and-that” type of posts. You should skip the first few sentences only ;)

I’ve been dreaming about getting an own camera for years, and yesterday it became a reality! Bought a Canon PowerShot S3 IS (6MP, 12x optical zoom, image stabilizer and 640×480/30 videos with stereo sound are the highlights). Today we went for a walk with my friend to shoot around the city. Unfortunately the weather was pretty foggy, but I think we did some good pictures. Check out my Flickr page (yeah, I went for a Pro account, so I can store my photos there – also noticed the most recent images on the sidebar?).

My favourite pictures: Sphere, Cross, Foggy forest, Autumn path and Freedom Bridge in fog.

TODO list has grown a lot recently:

  • migrate one custom CMS-based site to another custom CMS (in paralell to this, I began to migrate all my custom CMS driven sites to Drupal)
  • package Karoly Gossler‘s SaX2 Ubuntu port (stay tuned, X server packages need to be rebuilt too)
  • finish my homework for the Java class
  • learn for the 8 university papers in the coming 3 weeks

Surprised I don’t have any time to hack on bzr-gtk/Olive? :( Oh, an important thing: if you’re looking for Olive, just grab the latest bzr-gtk release (0.12.0). The two projects were merged (thanks to Jelmer Vernooij for restructuring the code, and Alexander Belchenko for Win32-related bugfixes).

I was happy to hear that people liked the last part of the Linuxportál TV show (FOSS-related live TV programme @ fix.tv), where I presented the features of Ubuntu 6.10, and also gave away some GNOME stuff (2 T-shirts and a bag) I got from Gergely Nagy at the Hungarian Ubuntu Conference.

“package Karoly Gossler’s SaX2 Ubuntu port (stay tuned, X server packages need to be rebuilt too)”

I wait for years now that anyone port SAX2 to Ubunut, i have 2 tfts and i like to setup this xinamera stuff like suse 11 did it
in seconds. I switched to suse cause of the reason i cant enable xinamera on ubuntu. (Dell PC / intel chipset horror)
Do you have new Informations about Sax2Ubuntu ?

No news unfortunately, but Ubuntu has some pretty advanced screen setup utilities now, maybe you could try them.
