sniffnoyFamily tree of video game controllers. Nice, no?
Meanwhile... I got the old computer up and running - for real this time - running Xubuntu, though to what end, I have no idea. (And man, I'd forgotten how small 800x600 was...) Mostly just as a test that I wasn't going to have trouble with it if I ever get around to installing it on the laptop. Though, I still need to check that the automatic partitioner did what I expected it to... though I used that as the HD on that one had been formatted anyway. If I install it on the laptop, I'm probably going to want to repartition it myself anyway.
Hey, I could try playing Freespace on it. It's an old computer, but, well, it's an old game. Only reason it runs slowly on this thing is because everything runs slowly on this thing. I got Worms Armageddon working - turns out there's a patch for Windows XP - and *it* runs slowly on this thing.
...yeah, I don't think I actually have enough for another paragraph, so I'll end this here.
