One of the hazards of Linux is that bad stuff sometimes happens when you upgrade.

For example, I’m currently typing this from Lynx due to the fact that XFree86, the gui for Linux, no longer works because my configuration file was destroyed.

This is more bearable that I’d have expected, but there’s much to be said for gui’s. For example, as I’m typing this, I can’t see the entire line I’ve typed, making it hard to tell what I’ve written.

Seriously folks, I’ve got to get a Mac one of these days…
