No, there are quite a few immature twenty and thirty-somethings here too.

Thank goodness, that was not aimed at me......I am 16

You could always just nuke your current setup and configure the whole thing again. Also, if you have the correct hardware you could give Arch64 a go.

Re: I am getting bored.

if you want to see what relly bored means
       USE WINDOWS XP

Nah, you have to keep on top of things like antivirus, adaware. And updating programs individually.

Arch is great in that respect, I only have to pay my system any attention once every two weeks or so and can update all my programs through one central system - pacman. The rest of the time I can use my computer to actually do some work.

On a side note: boredom is a great feeling, it means I have nothing to do, no deadlines to meet and generally nothing to worry about for that moment in time.

You should write a pacman clone in assembly!

Re: I am getting bored.

Finally, you can do documentation stuff for ArchLinux.
Or probably, you can do something like making it a point to answer every forum query

Re: I am getting bored.

I have the same thing. Cant think of anything to improve anymore. Think I will go read some books instead. Catch 22 is waiting together with the newest Gunther Grass and one by Don Delillo.

You'll love it.  Great opening sequence.  He' also got a great book about John Wilkes Booth.

Re: I am getting bored.

You're bored with your Arch setup? This is good news! This means that everything works just like you want it to. Everything is stable and the system can do everything you need your computer to do. Isn't that the objective? I *know* you can't say that about any Windows boxes you may have!

You're bored? Congratulations! GREAT job!!
