Planet SUSE addicts will have noticed that the last time they hit reload, some people’s IRC nicks appeared alongside their real names in the blog list.

Blocked
It annoys me when a package is blocked from building because the whole of Factory is waiting to build. I recognise the necessity but it annoys me. Thought you might like to know.

Photos
Took a bunch of photos of Callum at the weekend. We went kite flying with Si, Ellen, Anna and Ben yesterday at the Royal Victoria Park. There wasn’t much wind (not nearly enough for my quite small stunt kite) but Si’s very large kite was able to catch what wind there was.

New camera
My new camera, a Fuji FinePix F40fd was delivered today, along with two 2GB SD cards so I’ll be ready to take lots and lots of photos when we get to Florence. To test it, I’ve taken the picture below. The camera works perfectly with F-Spot thanks to the gPhoto library. I’ve also used the …

Planet SUSE
Okay, after the registrar utterly failed to renew planetsuse.org for Justin, he’s sorted it out and the DNS is now propagating. If you tried to get to the site in the last couple of days, it’s likely that your (or, more likely, your ISP’s) DNS server has the wrong IP cached but this will expire …

Planet SUSE
Please, no-one else email me about Planet SUSE’s DNS. I know, I’m on it and I don’t own the domain so it’s not as simple as you may think. In meantime, use planet.opensu.se.
