steps.

Finally I believe it: I’ve completed my bakk. studies in computer science. It will take some time (until the 10th of may) until I will hold the diploma in my hands, but I’ve already got a confirmation of my completed study and was able to matriculate for my master studies (computer science and if there’s enough time left Informatikmanagement).

I also got an offer for a part-time job at the austrian research center which I accepted gladly. I will participate as programmer for three months (and maybe more). The working conditions are great, I can feel the difference between research companies and business-oriented ones.

The work-provided notebook (a dell latitude d610) is perfectly suited to bridge the time until those ATI X1x00 graphics card got working linux support (it has an x300 with working linux drivers) and I would buy a new notebook by myself. I installed Gentoo on it (just to test it as all I need from my working environment is a working build toolchain and eclipse) and was rather amused as Ubuntu Dapper Drake got fresher packages and provides support for my r300-based graphics card while Gentoo doesn’t.

As I concentrated the last two months on completing my bakk. thesis I lost track of the other university-related tasks. I confess that I have absolutlu no idea what I have to do this term. I hope that my colleages will cover that. At least the work on my mandatory ‘praktikum’ and master thesis has already started, may it end better (time-wise) than my bakk thesis.

Last but not least: I can’t manage more than thirty minutes of Doom 3 in a dark room. The game creates an incredible thick atmosphere, I’ve already screamed out while playing it.
