noclobber,
you sure come with some ideas that never occurred to me, like NT in such machine. I'll give it a try if I can put my hands on the OS.
The thing is, i'm finnally starting to fiddle up with linux, and having sooo much fun. If only the boot didn't take so much time...
I will look for Grey Cat too.
Thanks for the reply.

Hi

I posted an earlier comment that after attempting to use DSL on a windows machine, windows (98SE) would have to reinstall serial devices.

I was never able to connect to my isp from DSL. I tried Ubantu. Ubantu diagnosed my cd drive as defective. I replaced it w/brand new drive, and was then able able to connect to my isp using DSL.

Furthermore, I had no trouble w/windows having to reinstall serial devices.

My Apologies

Ideas - things that are probably somewhere...
1. On a 200 Mb R/W cd, why isn't there some software
to update directly to the CD? (?)
2.  MyDSL - I bet other would like to MyDSL MAN PAGES.
   I keep going to my books or  my old SuSE6.4
3. The is an editor called "THE" and it also uses the
   REX library (I think) - It's kind of big, but it mimics the
   Mansfield Editor. Any chance any body else is interested
   in it.
4. (Dang, I'm not at home right now.) The is a player
   from South America for ".MOD" files. It's pretty good.
5. I've let kids attack DSL and the only problem I've
   encountered is (MS) sites and the inability to gain
   access because the FireFox plugin's are either for
   the wrong OS, or not started. Will provide the kids
   sites if anyone interested....

Puppy Linux (an offshoot of dsl) can do this. They have a separate page on their forum for discussing it - so it seems to have problems - maybe John/Roberts are working on other stuff first - or don't see it as necessary for a 50mb distro.

Are you suggesting for when you are not connected to the net?  Because DSL uses an online man repository.

There is one in myDSL - Multimedia, "Xmms-Chipmusic-plugins"

Flash? Would need the site to see what (Firefox, DSL, Flash etc) is causing the problem... and is it enough that it is a problem?
