Man, that tournament rocked! I didn’t come close to winning the main event, but my selection of cards was quite large. For the main event, I dropped after three rounds, but I ended winning one match. I also joined into a “Flight,” a short 32-person tournament. I would have liked to have stayed, but the third round ended at about 8:30, and we still had an hour drive to get home. So, we left shortly after that. All in all, I would do it again, although I would have done flights much sooner. They are smaller and I have a better chance of getting within the top 8 that you would need for prizes.

The setup is good, except for a few key components. WindowMaker needs a new install, and Mozilla could use an upgrade. Gaim is already there, and I love the new kmail and knode. Xchat is a newer version with cool features. The only major problem is the kernel. It is 2.4.3 with all the associated bugs. I just have to make sure that I print the options from the Mandrake kernel 2.4.3 for framebuffer and non-fb kernels. It supported my CD-RW and both sound cards with kernel modules out of the box with even more modules if necessary. I still can’t get my Logitech USB mouse working properly, but I will soon. Just a matter of modules.
