ShimmyT Was Here

Picked up a Logitech VX Nano today, then followed this wiki entry: http://wiki.eeeuser.com/configure_logitech_vx_nano?s=nano. It’s a really nice mouse, not too small and fits my overly large hands pretty nice. I also like the tiny usb receiver on it. Normally with the big dongles I’ll forget about it, and then when I throw it in my bag *SNAP*. With 9 buttos theres also plenty of programability in it too. Right now I’m mostly just using the scroll bar and back button. I’m looking forward to getting everythng programmed with it. Well here’s some pics:

It’s been a super busy few weeks. A few major things though. First I now understand why Red Hat is the #1 enterprise linux distribution. Our linux team (Rage and I) was charged with coming up with a cluster solution for our online classes: moodle. After learning a completely new distribution, and extreme googling I’ve been able to cluster 3 linux virtual machines inside of VMware with load balancing. It was really tricky, and I’m in the process of writing up a nice howto for it. There isn’t much of any documentation for it on the intarwebs so hopefully this will be my way of contributing to the community.

Next the EEE has been giving me some issues with the updated 0804 bios update. So I’ve been trying to battle with that. Overall though everything is hunky dory. Anywho this post has taken far too long to write so I am going to wrap it up here.
