Weekend...
Was good. Saw 'Hum Tum' on Friday (took tickets in black after a long time, in fact so long that I don't remember when I did that last!) Was worth it. Good movie, great company :) Caught another movie ('Yuva') on Saturday. Proper masaala movie according to me. Gals swooning over Abhishek Bachchan all over the place.... Had a nice shower to end the day.... no not at my home, on the road. Its pouring in mid-summer at Bangalore. Lucky me.

Fedora & Gnome 2.6
RPM upgrades are not as smooth as I wish they were. I need to read up more on what the issues are with the same. Am reading an increasing the opinion on the mailing lists that a clean install is the best way to go with Fedora. I think I'll try that next time at home. (Fedora Core 2 ISO download is still not complete, so there is some time for that). For now, however, I'm stuck at office with all my MIME-associations lost after an RPM upgrade to Gnome 2.6. On the brighter side, I got to read the shared-mime-info-spec which is good reading, and which I would not have seen unless I encountered these problems.

Meanwhile, a very heartening post on the mailing list which says I can continue to dual-boot after upgrade to FC2 without _any_ issues if I just take some care. I don't use XP so much these days, but my gaming is almost entirely on XP, and for that I can't remove it totally :)
