Pretty, too, or at least it’s getting there. The Intrepid install went fine; took about 28 minutes from clicking the Install icon (after checking the Live CD to make sure wireless was going to work OOTB–it did) to a fully ready-to-use desktop, which is a few extra minutes, but that’s because I used manual partitioning (guided thought I wanted to keep openSUSE), and the servers were slammed, so enabling extra repos took a little longer. All in all, though, I’m pretty pleased. I did install the Dust theme that I like so much, but the DarkRoom theme is nice, too, so I’m using that, at least for a while. Hated the icons, so I replaced them with a set called Desert from GL.org. I updated OpenOffice.org to 3.0 even though I rarely use it on the laptop, installed aMSN, gftp, Skype, Alarm Clock and a few other little things, but that’s pretty much all I’ll need. I didn’t have time to mess with this today, but it’s ooh-shiny, and sometimes, ya just gotta do stuff. I don’t know when I’ll get around to doing the desktop, but I’m happy for now. Also tired, so I think I’ll get in bed now and read dumbass comments on Fark until I fall asleep, hopefully at a reasonable hour. Haven’t done that in a while. 🙂
