in maintaining a steady sleep schedule the last few days - dead at 11pm, up at 8am. Please note time of this post.
The last few hours have been spent rebooting and reinstalling ubuntu. Probably not helped by fatigue.To try to enable headphones on my laptop and uninvert the webcam picture (turns out that the manufacturer screwed up and installed it upside down, later fixing it through a windows driver). Inverted webcam, I can live with... my bleary mug looks better that way. No headphones, not so tolerable.
I tried at least three times. With various degrees of success, ranging from wiping out all sound on laptop, to wiping out the GUI, to wiping out... everything (on that partition).
Better try again tomorrow. I resolve not fiddle around too much with IMPORTANT crap I don't understand (power is an aphrodisiac).
Sometime last night, I deleted my ubuntu partition but left the boot record untouched. I panicked this morning because my laptop wouldnt boot either system. Luckily the guys at Resnet were able to restore it.
