and did i struggle with this…
only later did i realise that the cach was clean, it was my browser’s cache that isn’t cleared…
but here is a good way that worked for me to clear the cache and open up some disk space, for the time being.
I use
/etc/init.d/squid stop
cd /var/spool/squid (or where-ever you cache dir is)
mkdir JUNK
mv ?? swap.state* junk
/usr/sbin/squid -z
/etc/init.d/squid start
cd /var/spool/squid
rm -rf JUNK &
and that worked for me !

well i ran into sum problems getting fedora installed. it just kept hanging
but after searching on the net this morning, got to this thread on the fedora forum, that helped me getting it installed. don’t know if I am going to get it working, but the installation is running at the moment on disk #2.
—Update—
i got it running, except the intel 865 chipset is giving me headaches, to get the xserver correct. works very well on 800*600 but not 1024*768 distorts kindoff… but when i move the menu bars at the top and at the bottom, then it looks fine, just don’t want to that all the time…

People surely do weird things, perhaps to better the chances of not losing their piggies
why else would you want a “glow in dark” pig ?
here is the article at The Register

to install or not to install ?? that is my question.
is it going to be worth the schlepp of reinstalling my pc with fc4. what i read it sounds quite nice, but i seriously don’t want to do all the customizing again. anyone got a good idea to just copy all conf files over to the new installation. copying the data is nothing , just all the configurations to get mail , web , shares, additional drives going. besides, i am running on a 450mhz pc with only 256 mb ram, so it will take a while. and who knows if it is going to run the same, speed and all. call me lazy, but i will definitely have to check my schedule for some time to do this.
at the moment i am making the 4 disk’s from iso images, just incase i decide to make the move.

i can see/find any good reason why one would put google ads on their site/blog
is it suppose to generate more traffic or is it to make a couple o’ bucks?

it is great to be back, a lot of stuff needs to get done before the people count goes up again on Monday… But most of it has been done before i left to go on leave.
so the countdown has begun to D-day, when everything starts to break and everyone has problems
