Broken rib |

Slowly, I'm recoving from my whooping cough. On my way |
|
home from our cabin yesterday, I started coughing once |
|
more, and, as you might guess from this posts title, |
|
this resulted in a broken rib. This means that I will |
|
be slave of pharma industries for a few more weeks, |
|
painkillers are my new friends. Bummer. |
|
|
|
Other than that a few positive things happened. A while |
|
ago I found a local company selling refurbished PCs. My |
|
work machine is ThinkPad X1 Carbon (3rd generation from |
|
2015) with Linux on it. I missed having a BSD available |
|
for private projects (we use FreeBSD for almost all |
|
servers at work, but still). So I ordered a Thinkpad |
|
X250 last week. Got it on tuesday and installed |
|
FreeBSD. It's been a while since I manually configured |
|
X11. Bluetooth seems to be a no go without a dongle, |
|
but other than that, most things work fine. Graphics, |
|
sound, power management (though I sometimes have |
|
problems with suspend/resume), wireless network, |
|
backlit keyboard. Still working on guesture support for |
|
the trackpad, webcam and the SD-reader. |
|
|
|
I also got hold of a Palm Keyboard for my Palm III on |
|
Ebay, but I haven't had the time to try it out yet. |
|
|
|
So long. |
