Mmmm... you can travel to the past?
I have just upgraded my linux machine to a 64bit AMD CPU. I also went from the 32bit openSUSE v9.3 to the 64bit v10.3.
Hold on! The 10.3 version is alpha, it is expected to have problems, and you are expected to solve them (as far as possible) and report to the developers, in the factory list or bugzilla. It is for experienced users, and certainly not intented to upgrade a production system!
I said I was having a senior moment in my original message. I installed 10.2
Sorry, but I have no idea what "a senior moment" means. Senior is Latin for older respectable person, ie, elder. - -- Saludos Carlos E.R. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFF6b1MtTMYHG2NR9URAoEEAJ0WFu1dd9xi+nQhvxXXS0Gh1gIQkACfRQ0w u0PF84ANjARhcoJjUbL6RRw= =pPhk -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

It's a euphemism for a transient bout of senility or senile dementia, though it generally has a light-hearted connotation, and is not usually used as a serious reference to cognitive impairment.

Ah! I understand now. I did have a look at "dict", but I had no luck in findind the idiom. Must be relatively new, as dict's version of the webster is quite old... There is an entry on the wikipedia, though. My english may be good, but it can never be so good as a first language... So, I supose he installed 10.3 in a distracted moment, and later went back and installed 10.2? He didn't say so. Never mind. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

As one gets older all sorts of strange things begin to happen. Along with "senior moments" there is "Sometimers disease", which I seem have. Sometimes I remember, and sometimes I don't. And then there are "brain farts". Those are somewhat like "senior moments". Kind of like when you push your glasses up on your head then spend an hour looking for them. *<[:oD -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

They say the memory is the second thing to go. I don't remember what the first is. ;-) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
