Fedora, Sabayon and restarting bookmarks

May 10, 2009 in Daybook by pukeko

I’ve been working on getting my bookmarks for firefox up. They are here. Main reason for this is that I have moved the laptop to Sabayon 4.1 — which has all the multimedia I would ever want, and games, which are needed when I travel. The main machine is now running the rc version of Fedora 11. This allows me to have very similar data to my university machine, which runs Fedora from the Otago University internal repos, and no, I am not going to link thru the firewall….

Now have thunderbird, abiword and most of what I need running. I’m using AutoTen and zotero. Autoten makes Fedora act like Sabayon — but Zotero is needed, as it allows for automagic insertion of references trawled from the internet AND it understands bibtex.

Finally, in my hands Fedora groks R, which is essential. I know one of my mates is making a user friendly statistics programme under the GPL called sofastatistics, but it is not prime time yet, and the kind of modelling I do requires some facility with a statistical language.
