Hi all,
Slackware is running almost nicely on my friend's machine now- everything
works except when I logout from KDE, Gnome, etc. the entire thing locks up
and the only way to fix it is with a hard reboot.
This is with XFree 4.3, kernels 2.4.22-xfs, and the latest Gentoo gs-sources,

Hi,
I'm installing Linux on a laptop for a friend - P4 1.8, 256 MB DDR,
Radeon 7500, it's really a pretty nice laptop.
Redhat hates it, it hates Redhat (countless bugs, sound-related,

Rehat is too buggy.
Gentoo takes too long.

Hi all,
I'm trying to configure GRUB to boot XP (dual boot with Gentoo). I'm not

Disk config is:

sda1: boot (ext3)

sda3: swap
/dev/sdb: Windows
