My First Debian Install

I installed Debian GNU/Linux this evening. Things are working, for the most part. I have a GNOME setting that makes me unable to log into GNOME, but I can use the GNOME failsafe option. I’m very much confused there. There’s also an error with the way that my network is setup. The setup tool, which I can’t find anymore, set me up as being on the network of example.com, which is not right at all.

Other than that, things are in relatively good order. Beth was all surprised when we were talking on the phone this evening, because I was confused, and, I guess, generally, that doesn’t happy with me and GNU/Linux. Whether that sentiment is true or not, it’s a nice thought. Debian is a bit more work to get running, but I’m to understand that it’s easier to maintain. Besides, who else has GNOME 2.6? I think that, all in all, Debian will be a good learning experience.

I thought that the job interview went fabulous today. I really hope I get it. The two that interviewed me were really nice, and I’d like to work for the company. Here’s hoping.
