Hmmm
My blog doesn't have anything about the Hurricane, for awhile I haven't been posting, because everybody's got something about the Hurricane, and I DON'T WATCH THE NEWS ON TV!
Anyway, I've heard alot of stories good and bad, but I'm not gonna talk about what I can't see, so I'll reach and find something else to talk about. Life FVWM, I got my script kickin! I like the coloring a lot, its darkish, blacks and blues but the contrast is just enough not to have to strain to figure out the difference between widgets :o)
I wrote up my little wifi signal strength monitor app, its cheesally coded but looks good, and updates ever second, which was changed from ever 1/2 second, with the thinking that it would be less cpu usage. Probably is, and its probably half of 0.000000000003 % of the cpu, maybe more zero's then that.
Babling: I wrote in a battery monitor into the same app, it would monitor both, battery and wifi precentage, but I found the program 'xapm' and at the time that looked better then my ASCII-colored xterm texted app *maybe* :p
Babling: I'm now compiling the LFS thats going on this machine. Using the 6.1 book of LFS. The CFLAGS if interested are (since this laptop is a Celery 300 mhz intel processor) as follows:
CFLAGS="-march=pentium2 -mcpu=pentium2 -Os -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
Its said they are safe flags, I've used -O3 on all the packages on a few other LFS's I've done, those are safe flags, but takes a bit longer to compile everything.
