What’s happening with me

  • I’ve been thinking about jobs recently. It’s probably about time.
  • I played with MythTV – it works really well with my cheap BT878 card. I couldn’t use the scheduled recording features, though, as there seems to be some lack-of-working with the (screen-scraping?) tv guide script, ‘tv_grab_au’, on channels except sbs and one other (abc?).
  • I’m having a go at making automounting work right on my Debian machine. I’ve been in OSX-land recently and have become rather used to the fact that USB drives, cds etc are mounted automatically. It saves a lot of time.
  • I bought a camera: the Canon IXUS 40, aka Powershot SD300. I’m pleased with it. You can see some photos I’ve taken with it on flickr.com (unfortunately not at full res, but there you go)
