My first Linux distribution

I'm yast installing the first Linux distro I've ever used; SuSE Linux 6.0. It took me a week to get X running back then on my 14' CRT. Really exited to see how this works out now.. Please make sure that CD number 3 is in your drive! ..and "Have a lot of fun..."

Text-based distributed monitoring

Is there any text-based, ideally distributed monitoring software out there? I want a TUI that shows me (e.g. with green/red highlights) the reachability of hosts (simple ping checks) while I'm doing network maintenance. Like a really simple, curses based nagios? It would probably look like a bloomberg terminal.. (I know this wouldn't be too hard to implement.. but I can't believe it's not already out there...)

Away from keyboard

At work we've just begun migrating a few thousand workloads to a new datacenter facility and besides that I'm barely using computers right now. These time-outs just come and go. Meanwhile I leased a 500m² garden and cheerfully dig into this shit. And of course the roof of the summer house there is leaky.. 😉 So.. don't mind me not reacting to your comments and new followings, I'm just outside wearing my straw hat! 🙃

SimCity2000

sometimes I completely lack the motivation to do anything.. but then there's SimCity2000! 💙 There's a patched version that runs under Win10/11 with native resolution.. which is nice. http://jlsksr.de/ftpd/ in the "oldgames" directory!
