Well I finally got too frustrated with Slackware to deal with it anymore. I converted to linux on my main box to get a little more power out of my computer, problem is there are no good ATI Radeon drivers, and I cannot get USB to work with my KVM switch. So now I am back to Windows 2k and MAC OSX. I don't like Windows. I never have, and once the USB issues are resolved with Slackware I will probably dual boot it. I have to upgrade soon and I will stay with Windows 2000 because I have soooo many games and applications that use Windows.

I hate you Microsoft. Forcing people to go your way. At least I will never have to get Windows XP just to run a program.

That's too bad, you might consider using Mandrake or something a little less frustrating like Xandros. Anyway, good luck, and we'll see ya back when "USB support improves".

Cool

I don't see a question so moving to General, where rants and similiar type discussions belong.

rkane is leaving Linux.

Oh well.... You win some, you loose some.

Well after 12 hours of fighting with Microsoft Windows I finally got a version to work. I installed Windows 2000 and whenever I put my vid card drivers in it would not reboot. So I tried this with 3 different drivers and nothing helped. Funny, I had did this fine about a year ago. So I tried to install XP and this time it started a bunch of crap about the EULA not being on the PC. So then I formatted the hard drive and installed Win98, and then I installed Windows XP/Full install (never upgrade), and finally after 12 hours of frustration I got it working. Needless to say if something else didn't work I would have just quit. I installed DirectX 9 and am using all the Windows drivers to run my computer. My games run faster in Windows than linux cause I had to use Wine for compatibility, and my vid card never worked right in linux.
I really hate that gui look that presents itself to me everytime I boot up, and I really hate that I'm going to have to install WindowBlinds in order to get a look and feel I want, which will waste some of my resources, but my son if very happy that he can play his hotwheels game again, and it was worth it for him. I guess the real reason I did it was so he could play his game. I'll just have to get saving so I can build me a powerful computer to put win and lin in a dual boot so I can play all these games I've spent so much money on, and still have my nice friendly linux install to do my internet, email, and webpage building on.
