Things just didn't go according to plan. Ended up staying in the city Saturday, still trying to get the digital photo frame working, basically, getting vesa and frame buffer video support into the kernel, along with getting the pcmcia stuff working, along with a new kernel too, 2.4.19, so a lot of stuff there. Watched a bunch of movies while this was happening, Antitrust, Swordfish, Ocean's 11 and Italian Job (which is a bit scratched). Oh, and then a late viewing of It Could Happen to You. Eventually got all the stuff working, went out to Naperville Sunday morning, in time to see Machine win their semi, say hello to some peeps, and then headed up to Woodstock for an eventual dinner with the 'rents at Bistro Wasabi. And then even better news with the photo frame, got SVGAlib working properly which means zgv is working flawlessly. The only problem now is control. I've got to see if external keyboards work, and maybe even bluetooth. But soon. Leah comes back from her weekend in NY. And Sky Captain opens Friday.
