Migration to Debian Linux as primary OS, phase 1

Filed under: Free/Open Source Software — Barry Hawkins @ 7:53 pm

Well, so far I have my old Titanium PowerBook G4 500MHz running with Debian GNU/Linux with 802.11b wireless working in place, Thunderbird for email, and Firebird for a browser. OpenOffice installs and runs like a dream, so the major office apps are in place as well. This migration coupled with my current workload and its associated study have been a handful. That stinks, too, because there have been several things I would like to write about. Choices, choices…

One big step is going to be getting the Bluetooth GPRS working. I would predict that it is going to eat up some time.
