Yeah, getting my winmodem to work is really no small feat..
And I had a lot of help, at a FORUM...
Because in the local area, Linux is for "criminal hackers", as
I was told. No help here...And I am in my senior years and done
it straight so far, so not looking for a second career in criminal
hacking...HA HA..
I am trying to get as much KDE as possible, and as little GNOME,
but I realize that KDE is a hog.
For resources, I mean.
There is a custom installation too, and that is usually the
way to get lean.
I have the portable or laptop installation now...
I am not going to run it as a server, or any of that...not if
I barely have enough resources to get online and browse!
I do have WindowMaker...
and it looks interesting..
But I don't know what browser it would use, really.
Best I have come up with so far is uninstalling Nautilus and
Sawfish, so Gnome won't open, and using KDE for ROOT and
XFCE for user...
Right now using Mozilla and Konqueror..though Konqueror
seems a little slow for some reason. Should I change it to display
itself as Mozilla, too...would that help?
HEY, any suggestions would be welcome.
On my way right now to uninstall Samba and Apache, too...
Thanks, TX_Metalhead..
And thanks in advance for other answers.
I need some input.
AND PLEASE, I HAVE DONE SOMETHING WRONG, stop me!
