Thank you to those who expressed their sympathies regarding the previous entry. I still don’t feel comfortable talking about it. Perhaps another day. Yes they are members of our family, if only briefly.
Sawfish looks to be quite a promising window manager for Solaris. That is if I can ever get the required libraries (and their requirements) installed on Solaris8. If and when I do get this running I think I must dedicate a page to the installation and configuration of Sawfish on Solaris 8. I think the list so far is at six or seven separate libraries that are needed in order to get it to even compile. Frustrating. (but fun!!!)
My driver’s license expired last week. Oops. So today I took a half day of comp time ( I worked an extra seven hours Friday night, so that’s fair- right???) to get my class E (chauffeur’s) license. Went to the License Bureau and took a look at one of the little manuals. I read it in the car while eating Lion’s Choice) and went in and took the test. Heh, I was rather nervous. Not that I thought the test would be hard, but it has been seventeen years since I last took the test. Well, I passed and now I have another six years before I have to think about it again. (although renewals don’t require a test)
