Upgraded to Firefox 3.5 yesterday. The irony is that my Mac machines have more up-to-date open source softwares than my Linuxes. Partly my fault for depending on distro packages for my linux which takes time while my macs got them direct from source.

Edgy Eft Laptop
I hope to say goodbye to laptop freezing/lockups after upgrading to Ubuntu 6.10 or Edgy Eft last Sunday. Dapper Drake was the most unstable OS for my laptop. It would normally freeze just after login or when you’re in the middle of something. After 3 days with Edgy, I have yet to experience a freeze.
Upgrading took me the whole day. The process was smooth except for the missing Kate editor, Apache webserver and a broken PHP5 config. All that was easily fixed with apt-get –purge command.
One thing I like the most with Edgy, it boots faster.

EdgyEft Tomorrow
Final release of Ubuntu 6.10, codenamed Edgy Eft, is set to be released tomorrow, Oct. 26. I just hope they didn’t bundle any Random Freeze Technology with it.
I’ll upgrade the moment it becomes available. I’m crossing my fingers that it’ll have the correct video driver this time.
