I have an R101, which is a trimmed-down 1000-something. Arch linux's Pacman is a very fast package manager. While portage takes 15 minutes just to calculate dependencies, pacman upgrads 1 Gig worth of packages in that time. Compiling Firefox had no measurable benefit, either version took 20 seconds to open. -- Gruß | Greetings | Qapla’ Please do not share anything from, with or about me on any social network.
