A Man and his Penguin

With whatever the last kernel update was, suspend started working again for me. So I’ve been using it. I’m still using KDE 4, too.

One thing I was curious about was whether I could suspend the computer with Amarok playing a song, and then have it continue playback from the same place when I woke it up. Unfortunately it doesn’t quite work like that - I had to press Pause and then Play to get it to start playing again, and it started from the beginning of the track. (might have something to do with an Amarok bug).

I’m going to get a Blu-ray drive today and at least one Blu-ray disc. Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about a specification for a no-DRM, non-patented high definition video disc so maybe I’ll get underway with this at some point in time!
