ia32-libs updated
I finally got around to updating the ia32-libs package. It's a bunch larger
now... and all libraries were updated to current sarge i386 package versions.

New Receiver Ordered
I've been kind of stuck for a while, because the receiver in the living room
A/V stack is completely out of inputs (no place to plug in the Myth box
without unhooking something else the family cares about), plus the power
switch got damaged a while back. So, I've been thinking about replacing it,
and today I finally ordered a new
Sony STR-DE895
from J&R.
Should be here next week.
I'll move the current receiver to the basement so that I have something to test
5.1 audio with. Taking it out of routine use also means I can take it
apart and see about replacing the power switch, without having the whole
family standing on first one foot and then the other waiting for me to
finish...

RD54s On the Way!
Got word from a friend today that two RD54 drives in good condition are on
the way to me, gratis. With some cabling work, I should be able to hang one
or both of these on the RQDX3 and have lots of space to play with 2bsd...
The RD54 is a relabelled Maxtor XT2190, formats to about 150meg.
