Re: wifi GUI, does wicd work? Requires Python and GTK (sadly), but worked
fine when I did Linux From Scratch.
Re: using NetBSD on a desktop, I have two (three) basic requirements for
using an OS/GUI environment for desktop:
1. Can I watch cat videos using the environment?
2. Can I watch cat videos in it while also being able to work on a document
in a text editor in another process without task swapping?
2a. Does driver support exist so I'm not using 1024x768 on a 1600x900
screen?
I don't know if NetBSD satisfies 1. and 2., b/c 6.1.4 stable doesn't satisfy
2a. :P At this point, I think only 7 satisfies 2a. w/ the Intel driver, but
I have yet to test. I will have to check to see if 7 passes my stringent
criteria. :)
Can anyone else verify that NetBSD 7 passes all two (three) criteria?
Sincerely,
