Linux is a booting

For a Mac blog... fifty percent is currently about Linux. But I shall precede with this entry anyway.

As I said... I asked on the Ubuntu forums and was told simply to leave the free space I created (by resizing my Mac partition) unformatted and unpartitioned, and simply let the installer do all the leg work. It worked. Now when I restart my iBook I can choose which OS to boot into. Linux is the default... obviously that needs to be repaired... but I restart my Mac so infrequently I really can't be bothered.

So what do I think? Well... it's pants really. For a start no drivers for the AirPort Extreme card exist... so no internet unless I go sit at the router... no thanks! And without internet I can't really be bothered to explore... having to boot back into Mac to look something up. Maybe I shouldn't be so lazy, get of my fat arse and hook up that ethernet cable. The other dire complication is the cursor moves incredibly slowly across the screen when you use the iBook's trackpad. I've turned up the mouse motion setting but to no avail. Instead I have to use a corded mouse! What century is this?!?

I originally thought I might use Ubuntu as a web development environment... but I've no connection. So now I don't really know what to use it for.

Tiger. Please take me back. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be unfaithful. I jus' slipped and it happened. Sorry sorry sorry.
