I’ve never really updated an entire OS in the strictest sense. When I say I have an up-to-date OS, that means I’ve all the major applications (mostly UI-based) in their latest versions. But this time I decided, having gotten back by beloved EV-DO, to go for a full OS update for my Fedora 11 (Leonidas). The command was as simple as:
yum update –skip-broken
Issuing the command showed there were approx. 1 GB worth of updates to be installed. But why think twice about the download size when you have an EV-DO with an unlimited data plan? Also, that gave me a reason to keep the EV-DO busy. I love downloading. I simple love it!
I’ll post some screenies of my updated Fedora as soon as it gets updated fully.
Update: Here is a screenshot of my updated desktop. Pretty, isn’t it? And reminiscent of my XP desktop a while back.

I had been tweeting more than blogging these days. But anyway, I had been publishing what I want to say quite regularly.
Frustrated of getting tonnes of spam on the Granular Package Archive everyday, I finally fixed the issue today, once and for all. This had been a long time pending task. I did this by integrating reCaptcha.
Saw Toy Story last week. Loved it! My favorite dialog? – “To infinity and beyond”.
India’s Cricket tour of West Indies starts just three days from now.
I am missing Granular development a lot; hopefully I’ll be able to continue development within a week or so. Meanwhile, the artwork team (Granuminati) had been doing some great stuff.
Still reading The Fountainhead (by Ayn Rand) since months now. I am a sloooow reader when it comes to philosophy novels. Anyway, I have started with the part 3 of novel based on Gail Wynand.
Finally did the dreaded Drupal update for granularproject.org.
Power cuts here, in Punjab, are getting worse day-by-day. 7 hour cuts are a norm these days.
