More Trouble 
Today's litany of woe:
- heavy crash in linux. I think it was a heavy crash, the sound kept looping a half-second that was buffered, the UI froze, and I couldn't get into it from external.
- Messed around with the mouse settings in Win2K to try and get the responsiveness to even approximate what it was on the laptop. It is almost playable now, but it still keeps hesitating in an annoying way.
- Diablo still throws up random crashes every 90 minutes or so.
- trying to bring the system back into Linux this morning, I discovered that the main file system has been shredded pretty good. Even though the system still runs, I suspect that eventually I will want to run something which is shredded and that will either stop me or (more likely) just trigger another crash.

This is a collection of techical information, much of it learned the hard way. Consider it a lab book or a /info directory. I doubt much of it will be of use to anyone else.
