Installing everything from source
I installed EVERYTHING over my cable connection which wasn't bad at all...
what i really want to do is install fedora core 1 with just the development kits and that's it i want to install just what i want to install... i want to use my machine that has XP and find the http address for the file i need and WGET the file on my machine after i install just the basic kernel.... kernel development kit... the other development kits...
now do i install xfree86 first then stack fluxbox ontop of that?
i'm going to install a browser of choice i'll research til i get off work on which one i want to use... i might use firebird...
but basically i don't want to have this old version of stuff on my computer so i'm gonna install the VERY basics and install the latest stable releases...
Questions!
do i install xfree86 first then fluxbox? it stacks on xfree86 ?
should i as soon as i get the basics on how do i recompile the kernel JUST FOR my hardware? MSI K7 nforce2 chipset board with ac97 audio, AMD 2000+, geforce 2 ti
which is better realtek 8139 or my nvidia ethernet controller?
I'm gonna play quake 3, ut 2004, enemy territory, play mp3's on XMMS, surf the net
this could easily take a while but if i can get my computer streamline like a butterfly it's ALL worth it!
i hear that quake 3 and my enemy territory work on OSS but what if i just install ALSA? i have the worst problems with one time sound working... the next it says it couldn't play audio
