Most exciting upgrade to Ubuntu/Edgy
Friday, October 27th, 2006This morning I had a free hour and this is how I upgraded my hp compaq nc6000 laptop from Ubuntu/Dapper to Ubuntu/Edgy. After updating /etc/apt/sources.list to point to the edgy repos…
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -dy dist-upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Well there was a conflict between x11-common and xinit which both wanted to provide the man page XSession.5.gz.
11:45am Wendy calls me and says the school just called and Griffin is in a ambulance on the way to the hospital and to meet her there. He accidentally ate something that contained pineapple — to which he has a severe allergic reactions to.
11:49 I’m on the road approaching the hospital and get a call on my cell phone. The woman says she is the school nurse and starts saying my son is having an allergic reaction. I interrupt her and say ‘Yes, I just talked to my wife and I’ll meet the ambulance at the hospital’. She says ‘Well, your son is sitting here with me in my office.’ Then we realize she is the school nurse from a different chool and is talking about Trevor who is having an allergic reaction! Trevor had his bee/wasp allergy shot earlier this morning and is reacting to that. Since he too was having difficulty breathing, he too is sent via ambulance to the ER.
12:05 — Wendy and I both arrive at the ER before either of the kids do. Explain to the ER admitting person that yes both boys are ours, they are coming from different schools, with the same problem (allergic reaction, breathing difficulty), but different reasons (food allergy vs reaction to allergy desensitizing injection).
Long story short, after evaluation, some benedril and alburterol breathing treatments, we were sent home.
Around 3pm I worked through a few iterations of apt-get update, apt-get dist-upgrade, apt-get -f install, aptitude dist-upgrade, I have a fully upgraded from Ubuntu/Dapper to Ubuntu/Edgy.
There are a bunch of new, interesting packages to take a look out. The list is here: EdgyConfiguration
Now that was a stressful upgrade.

Saturday, June 3rd, 2006We had so much fun last year, we went this year to the Lamprey Appreciation Day again!
Another historial nugget we learned today — the lamprey were so numerous in the Merrimack River, that the people of Manchester (called Derryfield in the 1800s) that they were called Derryfield Beef.

During the Q&A, Spencer asked “if we will be seeing more of you here in New Hampshire?” The answer was “Yes” ;-)

Walk New Hampshire
Saturday, March 4th, 2006A few weeks ago a friend told us about the Governor’s wife, Dr. Susan Lynch, and her involvement in Walk NH, a program to get children to execise more.
There is a limit of six people per team, so we have two teams, Wendy’s “Team Wanna-Walk” and my “Team Nozell”. As of today we are up to 36 and 43 miles respectively.
Only about another 150 miles to put in before June 1st. Gotta go walk another mile lap around the neighborhood…
