Yes, that’s the Ubuntu Virtual Machine loading in the VMWare Player on my laptop. So far, so good on using it, being able to mount the Windows shares from my laptop and work on things. The only things that bug me right now are that I can’t seem to open files and save them directly to the Windows shares from the virtual machine, I have to make a copy in the Linux file system and copy that back over to Windows, and VMWare player doesn’t support wireless cards. That’s ok, it’ll still be a good learning experience, and I can play KBattleship anytime, any place! *L*

    Thanks to Josh’s reminder, I went back and followed the directions Kevin had pointed to about making MT’s RSS feeds validate and include the whole entry. Now the feeds from the new site should be full-content feeds. Eventually maybe I’ll add the comments link to the feed as well, we’ll just see how things go…
