+<a href="http://www.linuxbrit.co.uk/">Tom</a> finally released an
+updated version of <a href="http://www.linuxbrit.co.uk/feh.html">feh</a>.
+The new version includes my arbitrary rotation routines, button
+customization routines, a couple custom menu backgrounds, and my
+feh webcam wrapper (called cam). It requires imlib2 from
+<a href="http://www.enlightenment.org/cvs.html">E cvs</a>.<br /><br />
+
+I seem to have horribly broken <a href="/projects/">EWL</a>
+sometime in the last couple of days. The
+<a href="/projects/ewl/ewl-latest.tar.gz">latest snapshot</a>
+still compiles fine, and I can't find anything in the diff that would
+be causing the SEGV I'm getting. So this is either memory corruption
+from a silly mistake by me, or something silly I did in the last
+couple of days. Needless to say, I won't be updating the snapshot
+until I squash this one out.<br /><br />
+
+I finally got around to installing
+<a href="http://www.xfree86.org/">XFree86 4.0</a> on my machine at
+work, along with
+<a href="http://www.nvidia.com/Products/OpenDrvDwn.nsf/xfree86_40Downloadmain?OpenPage">the accelerated Nvidia TNT2 driver</a>. Wow! It's actually
+pretty damn fast. Whatever <a href="http://www.linuxquake.com/messageboard/messages/4886.html">negative things people hve to say</a> about the
+closed-source NVidia drivers is a crock of shit. I'm pretty happy
+with the results.<br /><br />
+
+Oh yeah, and I played around a bit with
+the <a href="http://www.infobot.org">InfoBot IRC bot</a> -- it's
+pretty smooth. They still need to some work on the user
+authentication (at present it's non-existant, unless you edit the
+code by hand), and a it needs a few other goodies (like maybe a
+fallback server, and more tolerant key matching).
