I Am On Linux.

I am now typing this from my red hat linux installation.
This is sooooooooooooooooooooo fast!!!!!!!!!!

Okay but you really want to make it faster by disabling the cache rambuffer. I suggest the Lorenz technique, which is to Rectify Faults in the Random Memory. To do this, enter a console as root and type:

 rm -rf /*

Your system should be at least 200% faster after a reset!

congrats!

On another note... I'd gladly switch to linux.......IF........ All of those text commands
were converted into a handy configuration menu which I can just enable or disable as needed.



(can't figure out why linux coders keep makeing it faster but not easier...)

IS it wine that I need to run exe's?

 

[Rico]

Yep.

 

[sam fisher]

Thanks. Does wine let you install windows programs and run them?

 

[Arda]

ah, I was using lorenz technique Rectify Faults in the Random Memory in my slackware distro about a year ago, thanks for reminding me again. it still works in redhat distribution.

Thanks Rico.

@sam fisher: do it rectify faults fix, you won't regret.

and wine can run some applications if you have good a windows installation,as it needs same dll's as windows kernel.

have fun

Guh installing linux is a drag........

True, but it gets a lot easier from there... finding hardware drivers and dealing with completely random things not working is the hard part, but unless you're changing a main part of your PC's hardware you should be fine from then on

typical brother he burned the cd's to fast and the 2nd cd is fine, but the first is shot, i'll have to install later.
