Well, it doesn't look too venomous. I tend to leave spiders alone, and just think happy thoughts. Spiders and centipedes. They hunt down bugs I like less than them, so I try to get along :^D
My new debian+kde install at work is a little rocky. Turns out the drive I was practicing on had some bad blocks. Clonezilla wouldn't clone it(errored out), so I cloned it to the new drive with dd. I probably should have just done a fresh install, but I already had a decent amount of time in it with customization. Stuff seems to work, but are the little problems I'm having a knowledge issue, or a hardware issue?
Debian doesn't include as much magic as *buntu, so I have to configure things myself. I need to sync some folders from the windows server, and I can't figure out how to access it. I can get to it with dolphin, and copy/write/erase, but I don't know how dolphin handles it to copy the method. I've tried it by ip address and fstab entries, but either get a permission error, or a silent failure. I've always been pretty weak on networking, so it isn't easy for me to figure out.
I also have issues with virtualbox losing the serial port, and I have to pause/resume the vm to get it back. I tried using virt-manger, but my converted image won't boot, and a fresh install bluescreens with a disk error.
The essentials work, so it's good enough for now, but it's all stuff I want to fix eventually. KDE has me mildly panicked while operating it. It's like flying an airplane with all the options. I've always used gtk desktops, and I'm used to how all that works. KDE is like starting all over again trying to figure out how everything works. Nifty desktop though; polished and pretty. I'd like to use it awhile to see what tricks it can do, instead of falling back on the familiar xfce.
