nvidia stuff, the latest, unfortunately nvidia does not permit vendor of 
commercial x drivers to support them;

after studying los and so i found out that the problem was with x itself 
and especially kde and friends, so i set the startup to windowmaker and it 
works quite well [still no usb mouse].

sound is ok [but i have to redo it] and, kind of funny, it was the only 
thing kde could start up, an enourmous windows startup sound clip -)

otherwise.  For instance, you have the ImageMagick utilities, which

actually, i run those on the windows machine for years now, much unix stuff 
is nowadays available on windows. one reason for me to use windows is that 
our editing env is dos/win based [which is why i'm working on texwork for 
both platforms] and most fo all, because fabrice always very fast provides 
me pretty good latest pdftex binaries. Also, ghostview on windows is good 
and acrobat only available on windows.

I want to play with linux for: (1) texwork, (2) context in cvs and (3) 
document compile farm and (4) context on demand; most organizations we work 
for use windows so i need both platforms.
