LaTeX, grad school

In the interests in doubling up some learning this weekend, I spent 5 or 6 hours using LaTeX to do some homework for my graduate-level Databases Class. (Aside: I'm attending Grad School at Oakland University now. I kinda missed going to school. On the other hand, I kinda miss free-time now. but whatever.) So, I really am intrigued by the power LaTeX has. The learning curve on it is a bit daunting at first, but once you get the hang of typing out equations in it, it's really not so bad.
I don't think I could imagine using anything else to do equation-laden things in the future.... So, for anyone reading this and pondering how to handle equation-laden stuff - I really don't think there are any realistic options for you, outside of learning LaTeX. If anyone is interested, post a comment and I'll put up the raw .tex file I used for this. (Well, after I turn the homework in. Gotta have some ethics.)

I spoke to soon

The Intel wireless drivers are rather old, and seem to be less stable than the current development drivers.

I don't really understand why the 1.0.0 driver went in, rather than the 1.0.6 driver, given that the 1.0.6 driver has been out for several months.

In any case, I put a vote in for a more current driver, on the kernel list. Now I wait.

Finally, Intel wireless drivers in the kernel

I've been hand-building my IPW2200 drivers for a while, but as of today (maybe yesterday), the drivers are part of the main kernel tree.

This makes me very happy. My laptop is now fully functional from the mainline kernel. (Toshiba Satellite A55-[something])
