Slackware release and Nintendo DS
Written by Steve on February 10, 2005 at 3:39 pm
On the 6th slackware dot org ( http://www.slackware.org ) has released a new build of Slackware Linux, version 10.1 for those keeping track. Slackware has long been my favorite distro so it looks like I’ll be pulling angstridden dot net off-line tonight to rebuild it with the new release. angstridden is currently running version 9.1 so it’s a bit behind. I’ll post my thoughts sometime tomorrow I guess (if I get a chance). Download slackware from bittorrent ( http://www.slackware.org/getslack/torrents.php ).
I don’t think anyone who looks at this site actually cares (or follows this type of thing) but darkfader ( http://darkfader.net/ds/ and http://hackds.blogspot.com/ ) has been working his magic on the Nintendo DS ( http://www.nintendo.com/systemsds ) much to the delight of the homebrew (and rom 
communities). He was the first person to actually run homebrew code on the DS as well as the first to dump the Metroid DS Demo and Mario DS game carts. He is currently working on fully cracking the DS encryption scheme and if you want to help him out he’s made a distributed client ( http://darkfader.net/ds/stats.php ) to work the numbers. Currently the 1st test is at 63% done with some 290 different clients running his program. So, if you’ve got some spare CPU time (and trust me you had better have a good CPU fan since this code pushes it up to 99%) download the client and join the fun.
That’s all for now back to my day off.
The weekend is over? Already??

Well, I’m back home after a nice weekend trip up to Albany. I didn’t really do too much of anything. Just relaxed and slept really. Kris had to to work (both school and her job) so I didn’t get to spend as much time with her as I wanted but it was still nice.
I picked up a copy of ‘Game Informer’ ( http://www.gameinformer.com/ ) at Barnes and Noble which is a pretty good magazine except for the fact that I seem to always have my hands on a game before the magazine reviews are out. There was a big mistake on the release calandar this issue saying that ‘Call of Cthulu: Dark Corners of the Earth’ ( http://www.callofcthulhu.com/ ) was being released on the 1st. I’m starting to think that game is never coming out. Probably because I’m looking forward to playing it…
Anyway, this is starting to sound too much like a blog so I’m out…
