    Yeah, use nano not some program that puts in unneeded code.

    Mandrive is like the Windows ME of Linux.

    Sounds like a problem with X. Check your Xorg logs for information. Chris

    I tried Core3. All you had to do was put the discs in and select what software you wanted, wait an hour, and be done. I still don't see that as a reason to cop-out and just use something completely n00b friendly and not learn anything. Chris

    If you don't have a lot of time, get Fedora Core whatever they are up to. You'll have a running desktop one hour from the time you put in the first disk. And, you'll always have the chance to install SELinux on the 'supported' OS. If you can spare three and read a little documentation: go...

    Gentoo if you want to stay with Linux. LFS as a dual boot. But, if you really wanna take the (right) plunge, go to FreeBSD. ; ) Chris

    Ah, yes, so you might as well just use Windows if you don't want to do any work and get the true *nix experience. Chris

    Addendum: I honestly do not see the big deal. You type in maybe 50 lines of code to get Gentoo running completely how YOU want it, not how a dependency wants it, and maybe 100 commands for the entire install process, including all the software. The guide is _the best_ guide available in FOSS...

    I've done stage1 from a 800mhz machine. Took a week, but if you have the time, I don't see the problem. Also, you can use Knoppix while installing so you have a full desktop. Kind regards, Chris

    Yuck, Slack? Debian? Are you kidding me? Well, if you are willing to use *BSD, I would recommend going to FreeBSD-6.0-SECURITY. If not, use Gentoo. It'll take a few days for everything to compile, but it's worth it. Kind regards, Chris
