Mmm, toys

[dmaze]

Went to µCenter yesterday. The take: a KVM cable to plug donut into Emily's KVM switch (so I can get rid of the 8-year-old crappy keyboard and the 8-year-old dying 14" CRT); a Logitech Extreme Pro™ joystick (which, very much to my surprise, Just Worked under Linux, reporting six axes and 12 buttons under jstest and Just Working in Flightgear); a space combat game, Terminus ("looked intriguing, $10, says 'Linux' on the box"; some configuration required on modern machines); and a Linksys WRT54G (mmm, new-donut project). I haven't tried playing with the wireless router (and it's justified calling it that if you have configured it to be a proper router) yet.

I played Terminus for awhile a few years ago and really enjoyed it.
There are some graphics issues that keep it from working on my machine
now (textures don't work), and I haven't figured out why, though...
