Last weekend me and friends where in Caorle for a relaxing weekend. I was so amazed about this apartment hotel that I have to write some words here.

The hotel has only 3 stars but for me it was like a 4 or 5 star hotel. All there - like service, equipment, cleanness and so on - was really perfect!

If you will stay there for a while, I can suggest this area!

I reinstalled my notebook after did some stupid things :-).
So I had the problem after the installation that the display resolution was 800x600 instead of the native one 1280x800.
In the Display menu in Ubuntu it wasn't possible to change it to it. So I tried about 2 hours to fix it and I found a solution.

Just open the Xorg.conf (/etc/Xorg/xorg.conf) file as root/sudo and change it to this:

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier      "Configured Monitor"
        HorizSy c       28-72
        VertRefresh     43-60
EndSection

Yesterday, I upgraded my system from Ubuntu 8.10 to 9.04 beta. After the upgrade I thought that this wasn't a good choice.
The problem what I have is that the Xorg server runs with up to 70% cpu usage. The reason for this is, that some graphical drivers a e not supported till now.

Some of them are SiS, Intel, ATI.

So please be careful with the upgrade!

Today I tried to tinker a little bit with balloons. I think you will understand what kind of balloons I have when you have a short look at this:


Here are some pictures of the first figures (a swan and a sausage dog) - Please be cute with me, it don't looks like something like this but I think I will get it soon.

So if you are looking for something to do in your free time you should try it. Your kids will have a lot of fun!

Some weeks ago, I got my first and brand new car. It's a very nice and great car. A lot of spaces inside and a lot of functions and technical stuff.
Currently I am only cruising and enjoying the new car, so I don't have so much time to write here :-).

Here are pictures of mine one
