Life at new apartment

I moved to a new rented apartment couple of weeks ago. Moving to this new place was a hasty decision a bit and has its pros and cons.

This is a single room (studio apartment, without hall room) with a spacious kitchen. The kitchen is the best part of this new accommodation, much needed too as I have been daring to cook more and more recently.

Being a single room apartment, this place looks much compact than my previous apartment but I have no grief over this fact, for I could set this place up with a very good projection in my mind. Over all this place is lot more comfortable than previous. And what ever negatives are here, I am applying workaround on those with the best ideas I am able to come up with.

After 14days of moving in and 8days of DSL connection transfer application, tonight I could have broadband (DSL) shifted to my new apartment. My telco techs got shocked to see my desktop and questioned if this is a Mac ? Linux !!!! do we support this ???

No way you don't but I support myself, you are done -- bugger off !!!!!
--- not really, I was rather polite :-)

Now broadband is installed I need to get my GPRS connection de-activated, however broadband seems lot slower here as lastfm is hanging-up alot. I hope this is only weekend effect, and I wish bandwidth sharing ratio set by my ISP is not higher than usual.

Photographs of this new cool place will follow soon, meanwhile I still have a huge TODO list to cut down to ensure this place is setup as I visioned.

I also have more news to reveal but I'll hold those for a long while till I am settled on all of the recent changes in my life in last few weeks.

Also, over last two weeks I have been struggling to setup GPRS for my laptop. During that I noticed, my Nokia E61i phone will not work as a bluetooth-modem unless I use rfcomm channel as channel 2 (strange for my experience with GPRS over bluetooth so far) and NetworkManager does not handle dial-up connections anymore on Fedora ???
