The Spectator: To heaven and back
http://hawk-vg.blogspot.com/2007/07/to-heaven-and-back.html
Thursday, July 19, 2007. To heaven and back. Well, if you are wondering where heaven is, it is right here on earth (atleast the heaven that I'm talking about is right here). To be more specific, it is located in Himachal Pradesh, India. The place I'm talking about is Kullu, otherwise known as the valley of the Gods. It sure does live up to its name. Ion of the road entirely - we did muliple pit (read pic) stops. One of these happened to be forced upon us by the Border Roa. Once we were at Rohtang, we too...

The Spectator: December 2009
http://hawk-vg.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 26, 2009. Ubuntu 9.10 on Dell Studio 1555. Just installed ubuntu on my new Dell studio 1555. I should say I'm pleased with the way it works. I had a small issue with the display while using the live CD - it didn't work, However the solution was quite simple. I had to add "nomodeset" to the kernel boot parameters while booting using the live CD. Adding "nomodeset" to the default boot parameters solved the problem for good. Thanks to Ben for his blog post.

Monday, October 26, 2009. I am so bored that the boredom has killed any creative enthusiasm that might have existed in some remote corner of my soul! I hope that the dead matter will be revived not too far in the future. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Doing Jalsa and Showing Jilpa. Bindu Nayar @ Blogspot.

The Spectator: November 2009
http://hawk-vg.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 05, 2009. Another trip to a beautiful place. I'm all charged up with the anticipation of the upcoming trip to Rohtang. Been there once and fell in love with the place. A short refresher can be found here. I hope that this will be a good antidote for the large doses of boredom that I have been subjected to of late. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Spectator: April 2009

Friday, April 24, 2009. I guess I have finally given in to the temptation to use Linux as the primary operating system on the laptop. I made the switch to Ubuntu about a month ago and the fact that I'm still using it is proof that I'm liking it (loving it might be more "apt" :D ). Here are a few screenshots. The best part. it is light on memory and quick to respond. New theme. and MonoDevelop 2.0. I think I might go in for the upgrade to the next version of Ubuntu (9.04 - Jaunty Jackalope) tomorrow.
