The OS was reinstalled from scratch around 5 times before it finally started working. Debian was reinstalled from scratch around 5 times before it finally started working. And then it broke again, so someone installed PC-BSD. And then that got broken...

Someone will probably try to update Debian, at which point it will break everything.
Or someone will install another OS, which will probably also break everything.

Software

Originally running Debian 6.0.0 "Squeeze". [BOB] tried to upgrade it to Debian 6.0.4, which subsequently failed to detect the SSD hard disk. [*OX] and [SLX] installed PC-BSD in late 2012. [SZM] broke X by trying to install pygame. He fixed it by replacing PC-BSD with Scientific Linux.

Cabellera The Bitch

[SZM] has taken to calling Cabellera this, due to it's terrible graphics issues, inability to detect hard disks, and general evilness. Debian was reinstalled from scratch around 5 times before it finally started working. And then it broke again, so someone installed PC-BSD. And then that got broken...

It is Clownfish's Evil Twin.

Future Plans

Someone will probably throw it out a window one day.

Thanks to

[SZM], [CJS], [SLX], [TPG], [BOB], [MRD] for (trying) to set up the machine, and occasionally succeeding, but mostly just making matters worse.

[CJS] and [SZM] for picking it up.

[BOB] for allowing someone to stab the keyboard with a knife. This caused [EDO] to have to buy a new keyboard, which everyone says is better.

[*OX] and [SLX] for installing PC-BSD. [SZM] for replacing PC-BSD with Scientific Linux.
