Heh-heh, talk about multi-tasking Now, you'd never need to leave your computer. Maybe next they'll come up with the XP toilet.

Cool. Compiling on that unit must be a bear. I flirted with Gentoo, made a half-hearted effort to install using Knoppix, but, became discouraged because my sound card, NIC wasn't properly identified by Gentoo. Kind of a cop-out, I know. In the future I may take another run at Gentoo. I'm glad I was able to migrate away from RH 9. Mandrake 10 likes all of the hardware on my unit, runs well.

Very cool, jcl. I'm running lame-a$$ KDE 3.2 right now on my Linux box. I ran Gnome and Black Box before on my old distro Red Hat 9. Gnome and Black Box would run fine for a time then I'd get really strange video artifacts on my monitor. However, now on Mandrake 10 my unit is stable with no video artifacts. KDE works, I'm not messing with success:-) Is that screen shot your BSD unit or Gentoo?

I like the drop shadow thing, very cool, jcl. How did your X server crash? Too many processes running?

How and where do you get the knoppix boot cd??? do you have to download it?? also, what is the lowest file size for linux?? thanks, danny You can download it from the link jcl gave you or you can buy Knoppix from: Discount Linux CDs I've used this company to buy my copy of Knoppix when I didn't have access to a CD burner. The company is reliable, they delivered my Knoppix CD quickly.

Welcome, TK! Rest-up and recover soon, take it slow:-)

It's awful quiet in the Linux section as well. It's great though that this board has provided forums for people using other operating systems.

Nicely done, WhiteWolf4

Yeah, I hear that, man! I've invited a few users over from other boards, but, so far not much movement

Welcome, sultan_emerr! Very pleased you've come over! Yes, I agree this is a very friendly forum indeed, I think you'll like it here

Took a different snapshot of my desktop, Mandrake 10, kernel 2.6.3. This is on my old junker Plll 500 MHz Dell Optiplex GX1. I'm using Fire Fox 9.1, Mozilla 1.7, Kmail and Thunder Bird.

Sultan is here? Cool!!! Welcome, man, I'm happy you're here!

Ha-ha-ha-ha, you rule, macmarauder, very cool!! Right on! I'd like light mayo with mine please:-)

I sure hope he makes the move, we'll have to wait and see what he decides to do.

I think it's cool that your handle was given to you, chinawht:-)

I would diet if I could avoid the munchies at night, but, I'm trying to cut out the bad stuff.

Hi thesidekickcat, LOL The troll recipe is great, thanks for the chuckle! hitest

Agreed!! It should be legal to make copies of software that you've purchased for your own personal use.

Hi Mac, Hello my nighttime friend! Yes I thought I'd stay in a "green state of mind" for now I see your still up? Me too? What can ya do, you either sleep or you don't. Good to hear from you! I've missed your wit! wit! Where! Get it off get it off! Ohhh you meant wit. Sorry I had a nightmare about being chased by the Thread Monster through the forum and I'm a little jumpy. Good moning macmarauder, chinawht. TGIF! I've had lots of coffee so I've been able to jump start my brain a bit.
