Month: December 2001

Just looked at shop.bbcamerica.com How ever put together this site needs to do some shopping in the US, there are a lot of stuff on here that I can get at Giant my local supermarket for a lot less then they are asking for on this web site, for example Lucozade, horlicks, Ribena, Golden Shred, Sarson’s Malt Vinegar. I mean do I really need to buy imported Vinegar? Plus they are asking for a $20 min order. I am much better off at Britishfood.com but they are out of stock of Irn Bru. Ick

Geek Stuff
The default install of Solaris sucks,

bash-2.03# make
bash: make: command not found

no ssh, no working graphics drivers. The list will probably grow.
Update
Got the graphics card working, turns out you can install modules from Xfree86, it didn’t have the driver for my card but is did have a generic one that works 🙂
Update
Getting closer to getting something to compile, got make, now what package is ‘ar’ in
Update
‘ar’ is part of binutils, now installed, along with openssh, openssl, jove, lynx and ncftp. This machine is getting close to being useable by me 🙂

PhotoPoint goes dark. I wonder what will happen to the other photo sites. Talking of photos I found a web hosting company that will give out 500 MB of disk space for $10 a month which is cool. Once I run out of space of projectphotos.com I can set up projectphotos.net as a new picture store on this new service 🙂

Ok I am an idiot. I wasn’t just missing one roll of film I was missing 3 and they are all in my fridge. BTW I keep all my film in the fridge which at the moment is about 20 or so rolls. I know what is on one of the rolls now what the hell is on the other 2???
