No, I just went on vacation, and when I came back my hdd broke (don't
worry, I have a full backup). S.M.A.R.T. was not of any real help
either. :-( Instead of issuing some helpful warning some time before the
hdd crashed it just diagnosed bad sectors after the fact... well, kind
of useless technology I guess :-D On the bright side, I am going to get
a shiny brand new machine.
Anyways, I have to postpone my work until my new machine comes in.

Yeah, I'll have a look at this as soon as I get setup up again and ready
to go. For now, I am operating in "emergency mode" only, so nothing much
besides emails and browsing. :-\
