Okay it’s a Friday night and I’m recovering from a cold and bored as well.Here goes another post Synergy! What is it? A way to share a single keyboard and mouse between computers.It works pretty well although it has it’s flaws it sure beats fumbling around for another kb and mouse or using a vnc style app.Check it out at http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/ it’s multi platform so you can use it on linux and mac as well as windows if you must.My setup is pretty simple I use synergy to connect my Gentoo box to my FC5 box.It’s highly configurable with useful options like having the mouse cursor wait until it appears on the other monitor so you don’t accidentally bounce to the other box when you move the mouse fast.Synchronized screensavers on all connected machines an easy way to be more productive if you ask me.

I’m a bit of a music lover and I prefer lossless formats over anything else.I needed to get MAC files to play nice with xmms.A quick search led me to http://sourceforge.net/projects/mac-port/
Once I compiled both packages a quick restart of xmms was all I needed to get sound.
Been using HellaNZB to download all my NZB files lately for newsgroups. It works wonders, downloads, par2 verifies and extracts. Leaves me with nothing else to do but watch/listen/run what I downloaded.

Can’t wait till March 15th when the new Gnome is released, Especially since my install of XGL on my system turned out to break more things then it added.

Hello Everyone,
Thought I’d make this into a blog site so we could post screenshots or random jibberish, better then the random jibberish that was already here before.
