Google Earth on Edgy Eft

This is going out to my homies in Transylvania with love. We’re going to install Google Earth for Linux on Ubuntu Edgy Eft. Before you click the link below I want you to remember to come back for the rest of the tutorial carry on. To download the latest version click here or:

wget dl.google.com/earth/GE4/GoogleEarthLinux.bin

chmod +x G*.bin
./G*.bin

& that’s it

As far as akamaru is concerned with you getting the “libgconf2-dev with the second apt-get string up there, and i get an error saying “Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libgconf2-dev” any ideas? Oh sweet now my computer not rebooting … I=pwned.” *coughJoe* pft! grab Edgy if you haven’t already so you can do the Beryl & Kiba dance.

cheers
macewan

Information Week hung-up on me

They called me at home, on my cell phone. My views didn’t appear to match the questions they asked and the lady hung up on me. No good-byes or thanks for your time. Instead the line just went dead. Nov. 7, 2006 5:00 pm EST - if anyone from Information Week is reading this.

Ransom speaks in SCO trial.

Should be interesting to watch SCO handle this situation.

Here’s Ransom Love’s Declaration [PDF] as text, which he has provided to IBM, another of the 597 exhibits IBM has offered in support of its summary judgment motions.
