Serious Problems at Mungkie Assoc.


May 25th 2002
Mungkie systems have been in disarray since 20thMay due to a severe fire in the backup tape storage safe, and an employee rampage through the building with shotgun. It seems that one of the senior management could not take the strain of forced redundancy and "went postal"

onedickxwin alpha finally released


Announcement May 17th 2002

After a somewhat early announcement of 1diskxwin and some slight typographical orthography embarassment the 1dickxwin distribution has been announced. features include:
  • uclibc based
  • removal of lots of bloat
  • removal of most security features
  • lot's of segfaults
  • an almost functional X11 system
    It's basically just a subset of 2dickxwin compiled with uclibc to save a bit of space and put on a 1.7 Mb formatted floppy. check out 1sikdxwin.htm

    Development News

    We have had our highly qualified workforce of Mungkies randomly hitting terminal keyboards for the last two months, but have not come up with the works of shakespeare. This is partly due to bananna shortages incurred by trade agreements between the U S of A and europe and a severe drought in Zaire, the lack of potasium in mungkies diet led to seratonin and cerebropuslin reduction in neuro fluids causing low code productivity. Unfortunatly the mythical mungkie month has gone out the window, but a new version of Mungkie assoc. 2diskxwin did emerge from the code mills. We hope you find it agreable even if not as highly polished as usual.
