1リットルの涙 (一升的眼淚)

最近看了一部日劇「1リットルの涙(一升的眼淚)」,它是由真人真事改編的故事。

亞也是個15歲的少女,正值最青春的時期,被告知患了"脊髓小腦變性症“,在當時的醫學技術上來說,它是個不治之症。因為小腦萎縮,而使得無法控制身體,慢慢地不能走路,說話,能力一點一點失去。

在看這部片時,眼淚也會不自主的掉下,超感動的。你能想像一個才15歲的少女,接受自己不治之症的痛苦嗎?體會著許多原本做得到的事,一件件都失去能力的絕望嗎?難得的是,亞也自己也很努力地想要戰勝病魔,雖然知道不太可能,但卻也沒放棄。比起我們健康的正常人,還有更大的勇氣與毅力。

我喜歡亞也在日記裡寫的一些文字:
「不要著急 不要貪心 不要放棄 大家都是一步一步行走前進的」
「病魔...為什麼選擇了我 命運這樣的字眼 是讓人無法接受的 想要做出時光機器回到過去」
「雖然也會被無心的目光所刺傷 也明白了同樣有溫柔的目光」
「摔倒了有什麼呢?再站起來就行了 摔倒的同時仰望天空 藍藍的天空今天也是廣闊無邊的微笑著」
「人不是活在過去的 做現在力所能及的事就可以了」

Gentoo - startx

By default, gentoo is set to text mode. If I want to use like KDE graphic desktop environment, I have to change .xinitrc in my home directory.

Modify .xinitrc:
    echo "exec startkde" > ~/.xinitrc
Start XWindow:
    startx
Configure KDE: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/kde-config.xml

Finished installing Gentoo Linux

Yeah! Finally, I got Gentoo installed. Yesterday was a long day for testing. Although it was failed, I can try to use GUI installer again. This time, I know where to change, and get it better. However, it really takes a lot of time to complete installing Gentoo. From restalling to completing, it tooks about 21 hours including setting, emerging, and compiling additional packages. Anyways, I success this time (took me about three days...orz)!! (^_^)y

Gentoo Linux 2006.0

Today I had a chance to install new OS in a computer from a friend. This time, I chose to install Gentoo Linux. This Gentoo version contains a command line installer which is similar to Ubuntu and a GUI installer. Without installation, users can use the gnome desktop environment by default. Before I installed gentoo 2005.1, but I did not really success yet. This time I thought it would be easier to install. However, when I did GUI installer, I got failed for three or four times. I must miss something but I could not figure out. After checking installation handbook, I realize that the stage3 is not contained in x86 LiveCD. Fine, I downloaded stage3 from gentoo mirror site, and installed and extracted into desktop. Reinstalling again, but I still got error messages. Thus, I decided to use command line installer. This time it worked. Right now, it is still installing packages. Don't know how long it will take to complete installation because it has been installing since about 2PM this afternoon. Wow....maybe I checked too many packages and it did take time to emerging from the internet and compiling it while installing gentoo. Sigh... Anyway...If I want to install it again, I will not check so many packages at a time. I will install them after the basic environment is installed.
