Re: XP questions

1. Not only does WINE not need a windows partition I wouldn't recommend using one. Make sure WINE runs the applications you want though.

2. Yeah, Xfce4 will work fine. IceWM is a OK if old window...

Re: PBW support for 1.35

I'm lost. What version of BM is 'SE5 V1.35 with Balance Mod v1.05+' using? 1.05 or 1.06? Also, is it possible to name it by the version and not the directory?

Re: OT: Windows is too expensive

No, compiling the kernel itself is quite fast. But a stage 1 Gentoo install does often take days. Luckily it looks like the handbook is pushing a stage 3 these days.

Re: OT: Windows is too expensive

For the most part yes the default kernel for a distribution is generic usually coming in 386, 686, k7, 64bit and what have you. I have never seen much improvement in making hardware specific kernels...

I'm lost, what are we arguing about? Package managers and package repositories are related to each other (both having to do with software packages) but aren't the same thing. Both Debian and Ubuntu...

Huh? With Ubuntu/Debian (free distros) its installed and used by default. SUSE can install it but it isn't there by default: howto (http://en.opensuse.org/APT)

Re: OT: Windows is too expensive

Yeah, if you have the bandwidth download a few livecds and see which ones you like. Out of the ones you like do some research on their installer and package manager.

Re: OT: Windows is too expensive

Yes you want a swap partition. How large depends on how much ram you got and how much processing power. You usually want twice your ram.
