Heh. two and a half days, and it's all on, with the exception of kdemime 
which will *not* compile. At which point I discovered that the QT was 
compiled without jpeg and gif, so I couldn't see my wallpapers...

But it was too slow to use - the processor is at 150MHz but the memory is 
still too small at 32M and it was thrashing a lot: ok once something was 
launched but very slow to launch.

So now I'm back to 7.1...ah well, interesting experiment.
