PalmSource, SGI, Red Hat 8
Went to PalmSource’s Open House day yesterday. Andrew from TheRegister.co.uk gave me a lift at the event. We had a pretty good time (and some good food was there
JBQ was late 40 minutes to come and pick me up from there last night, as the traffic was bad because of a concert happening near by. So, we decided to go to Frys near by, until the traffic would clear up. We bought a mouse for me and a new VGA cable that gets from the SGI 24″ monitor we got here to a normal VGA card (it normally has the Unix monitor connector which is not compatible with PCs). So, now we are on 1920×1200 resolution (this incredible monitor can do 2048×1440 too, but the stupid nVidia Geforce2 MX-400 Asus card can’t go as high in a respectable refresh rate), but it was a bitch to setup that specific resolution under Red Hat Linux 8. Yeah, I found an FTP site that had the leaked ISOs from Red Hat, so I hope I will have the review ready for Monday, before anyone else…
