Hello DSL community,
I am a bit of a newb, and so, please treat absrud questions kindly.
I am wondering if a travelers utopia is within reach: if I could use frugal and install DSL on a 512 or 1 gig stick, watch the internet cafes closely and when ever I need to unload some pictures off my digital camera, I could just pop in and throw my pictures from my camera on to that drive. Also, I woulnd't have to worry about sleezy internet cafe folks mucking about with my nicely dsniff'd passwords (don't tell me it cant be done, I have stripped passwords out of hotmail, gmail and yahoo login routines.) Or more just a ghetto banger keystroke logger. Ever since the trip to bulgaria I have been getting spam faster and faster every day....
anyways, niether here nor there.
I have been poking around, and it seems that if I could get the libgphoto2 and gphoto2 installed I would be in business. (I am not SO worried about bloat, I could tolerate even a *gigantic* 75 or 100 MB installed size)
Again, I am a bit of newb. Is this possible. I am willing to work for it, and my unix skills are pretty solid (I am a certified mac os x specialist, if that means anything these days.)
a hint any one? just point me in the right direction....
the reason I put this int he ideas and sugg. forum is because it would be really awesome to market dsl (if I am allowed to use thw word "market" in this community) as a travelers delight: I am sure some of these snobby travelers would pay 250 dollars for a 512 or 1 gig set up, ready to rock.
lots of tinernet cafes have compys that have bios that allow this sort of thing (usb boot).
I the mean time I will continue to puts around and see if I can make it work.
over and out.
