Linux and I --Round Two!!!-- Fight!!

[WarPiper]

I also run Mandarke 9.0, its install on my AMd 1.4 t-bird, I took the Hard drive from a A1200 I had, added a 2.5 to 3.5 converter to it then just poped it into the PC tower to create a duel boot linux and Win 2k system.

I have to say that this to me is the most impressive distrobution of linux I have ever seen and use, though I think I messed up the Gnome desktop, but thats ok, I like KDE better for some weird reason.

During installing, I think I went overboard and installed EVERY SINGLE package that came with the distro, Games like the Chromium and tuxracer seems to run slow, and I know that its not due to lack of resources, other than that, I love it. hell, I am using it now.

@ spihunter

nothing ever ran right without tweaking. changing even simple setttings (ex: screen size) involved manipulating text files. I dont mind doing this stuff when I'm in the right mood.
but when I'm really trying to get some creative work done on my computer, I really dont want to have to F#$%^&* with a text editor!!! (double when its late & I'm ready for bed)

I know just how you feel, but it is with the Amiga, Although I love my miggy, and will tolerate it for as long as I own it, but I cant stand getting a nice Amiga program that people talk about, like perfect paint and AmigaAmp and games, but first you have to spend a year and a day downloading library files and this and that and yadda yadda yadaa....just to get the damn thing working, then there are those programs that just go on the blink and not work like ppaint, candyfactory pro, now I dont mean to make this into a bitch-out for Amiga, I am just saying I know what you mean about having to tweak the program befor getting it to work.

maybe Amiga OS is so small because they dont put all that is needed into it.  But I still love it.
