Why does it rain when I was out of the house but not when I am at home? It's so stuffy and hot now. Wait, I hear thunder. I can smell rain in the air. Can this be real? Is it going to rain? We shall see...
Anyway, time to mess up my computer with a new installation :p

Finally...
my body has lost the battle. I am too sick to work. Therefore, I will be on medical leave for tomorrow...

The Bourne Identity
I loved it in the cinema the first time and now I loved it still on TV the second time. It's IMHO the best action spy movie I have ever seen.

Fedora Core 4 up and running!
After many days of trying out what to install and how to configure the applications, I managed to settle for a simple desktop for home use. I am running Firefox 1.5 for internet surfing, SCIM for chinese and japanese input, and kopete for my various messenging services. Now I will be putting in lighttpd, MySql and Ruby on Rails in to try a bit of web development...
Update: I am running Fedora Core 5 now...

SCIM breaks Firefox???
Spent the whole Sunday refurbishing my computer: replaced the hard-disk, added more RAM, and installed Fedora Core 4. (I know I know, Fedora Core 5 is out but I have yet to download it.) However, a problem has caused me to use most of the evening to find the cause but yet to understand and resolve. Why is it that Firefox 1.5 fails to start when I enable SCIM for Chinese input?
Next day update: The problem is caused by the fact that the new Firefox and SCIM used are compiled with different branches of gcc. I managed to find a workaround on the web and it should be working. Still trying to see what are the limitations...
