Got a new super-Acer for the son, so I get the old one. Naturally, I put Linux on it. I used the Debian installer for amd64, since this thing is a double Celeron with the Intel 64 bit extensions.
You need the Debian installer version with the non-free firmware. There is one little 'gotcha' in that you need a new boot parameter, explained here.
But did you know that the new Grub2 is totally weird in configuration? You have to add that extra little thing as explained here.

Caribbean Dream
A friend recommended this catamaran charter, and it seems best to find 2 other couples from the same area for a charter.
I hope I find some people. Works out to $5,000 a couple, maybe.

Labour Day cottage report
A very beautiful weekend. Water was still warm enough to swim. Very dry and I hope we get that rain tomorrow. We left at about 6, and it was the best traffic ever! All the parents must have left early so they can get rid of their kids on time. :)
