I looked at the instructions in the DSL Wiki and did not know about burning an image rather than just a file. Is it just me or are the instructions not that clear to newbies like me?
Anyway DSL looks wonderful and performs well on my old machine -- next problem is I don't know how to stop smilling.
Once again thanks for the helpAre you still smiling in your sleep?
Note: instructions on burning the cd image are not explicit because there are thousands of applications that can do the same thing - not to mention the commericial ones (for example, Nero is commericial). However I suppose the more-well known applications could be added, but I'm unsure of the community's stance on supporting commericial software.Yes I think I must be smiling all the time - can't now imagine why everyone does not use linux.
As to your point about burning the image. It would have been helpful to me if the instructions had been a little bit more specific that an image needed to be burnt rather than files. It was a case of I thought I understood what was needed and just registered that a CD needed to be burnt.
can't now imagine why everyone does not use linux.
Because of the games.
It is possible play almost every Windows game on Linux too:
1. With Emulator. Uses very much CPU. 2. With wine. But it usually needs a lot of configuration if you want to play more advanced games. I've seen a screenshot where World Of Warcraft was running with wine. ;D
I'd like to play Starcraft with Linux, but It takes so much configuration to set up network game feature so I haven't done it... yet.
I usually play Daimonin (not much nowdays) or emulator games. Now I spend my time to play trough Final Fantasy VI / III. ^_^Next Page...
