Year: 2003

Apparently, Olga is still recovering from the operation. It’s too early to let her go home today. Maybe tomorrow…

Doc says that maybe tomorrow Olga will be able to go home. She managed to get up and walk a bit with my help. We’ll see how it goes tomorrow.

Bad news – Olga was in pain for the whole night.


Good news – there was a place in the operation theatre and she undergone her surgery. Doctor said that it went very good. Olga said that she feels better. She is sleeping for most of the day now due to excess of drugs in her body.

Olga felt worse since yesterday’s evening. Today she was hospitalized again. :(

In the morning Olga and I went to see her doctor. Another round of blood tests on Saturday should confirm that she is ready for the operation on Tuesday. Hopefully this nightmare will end soon.

In the other news, I’ve upgraded my office workstation to Fedora Linux Core 1. It turns out that I am one of the last people in the office to do so. :) The distribution itself is not that much different from the Red Hat Linux 9. This was expected. Graphical boot is really neat. Few glitches with terminal settings here and there, but I’ll look into them tomorrow. The whole process of upgrade was fast and easy. Graphical mode now works for network installs/upgrades too. Overall, nothing new apart from what is described in the release notes.

While I was at it, I downloaded compiled and installed Linux kernel 2.6.0-test9. This is the first 2.6.0 kernel I managed to compile (but I never was too persistent with it anyway). Actually, it went through the first time I’ve tried.

The rest of the day I was running on this new system with no particular changes noticed so far. I’ll pay more attention tomorrow. :)
