Android Watch - Tuesday (Got It!)
Submitted by blairkenn on Tue, 2010-08-03 20:38I just checked for updates and Froyo is ready for me to download. Upgrade started!
update: Android 2.2 installed in about 5 - 10 minutes on my EVO. No issues. I would say that it does feel a little faster in areas. I like the updated input controls.
ok, now that that has been accomplished, on to the next "thing"...

End of Continuous Uptime
Submitted by blairkenn on Sat, 2010-06-12 01:14Well, with the release of Lucid Lynx and a lack of support from the ushare project, I am going to sacrifice the continuous uptime on my media server so that I may perform a significant operating systems upgrade, LVM reorganization, and replace ushare with fuppes.
Here is the final continuous uptime number from the server:
