Enjoyed the Weekend in the Mannheim/Heidelberg area and went out for dinner with my sisters and their boyfriends on Friday and with a bunch of friends on Saturday. My new Compaq 21-inch screen safely arrived at my parent's home, so I had some fun getting this one into our car and up the four floors at home.

After unpacking it, I felt a bit disappointed - the screen has the exact diameter than my old 19-inch Sony monitor! Seems like monitor vendors seemed to be more honest in former times. Oh well. At least the picture quality is much better and I can finally run higher resolutions, too.

Took the old monitor to the office. I now have two large screens on my desktop! As soon as the testing for 7.0 is finished, I will attach the Sony to my workstation as well and toy with the new XFree86 features like Xinerama :)

Fortunately the rain stopped on Sunday evening and I was able to cruise a small tour with my bike. It was about time!
