freevo-linux update 3
i have dvd::rip up and running. it tooks some time as i didn't have all the deps for it, and had to spend some time finding them, and then discovering that i had versions that were too new for dvd::rip and having to downgrade to the earlier versions, and forgetting to install the divx5.02 codex and wondering why it wouldn't encode. anyhow, it's running and it looks very nice.
i upgraded to ximian evolution 1.2 trying to fix a problem with it not keeping my email account info, only to find out that it is a permissions thing, and being too lazy to fix it, i just authorized as root and set it up, saved it, and unauthorized. at least it works.
i think i may have fixed quake3 this afternoon, i haven't played it enough to really tell as i'm in the middle of a 5 hour encodiing process(i forgot to change it to 1 pass encoding) and don't want to crash x before it's done. i was able to play level 1 which i wasn't able to before, so things are looking up.
things i can think of right now that are left to install/setup(note this list doesn't include things that are already installed that aren't working the way i want them to yet):
everybuddy - multi im client
scribus - pagemaker type thingy
mixmagic - multi track recorder
shockwave for linux - oh wait there isn't one. get off your asses macromedia!
