Operating Systems > Linux and UNIX
So I installed Linuxoze
DukePuke:
its some kind integrated via chipset with 8 MB shared memory (please dont laugh much). But BTW its ok for kde and apps, mouse move pretty smooth.
Actualy about those mesa3d libs. I do "make linux", and it compiled shit 5-10 mins, but then i try to "./configure" tuxracer, it STILL prompts i have out-of-date glx.h! And prompt advices me to get those damn libs from mesa3d, man looks like its gonna be cool day

I doubt if you can play many 3D games with your card.
I'm not a 'gamer' and I don't use mandrake.
Still, I'm sure urpmi should do those things for you.
A friendly Mandrake user(Refalm?) should be able to help you with urpmi.
I only compile stuff on 'Slack'.
I don't find it needed on Fedora and SuSE.
As far as I know, Mandrake should be just as easy.
Good luck. ;)

really? let me fire up a default twm or fvwm config and see if it does.
nope. it doesn't.
desktops may do it... window managers don't.
don't confuse window managers with desktops! too many people do that!

Restin didn't.
Any WM can do that.
You just didn't configure it to work like that.
PS: You whould have to change the runlevels in most distro's.

AHA!
Therefore, the option isn't truly valid. You have to KNOW HOW TO DO THAT, don't you? I do believe I said "default install", didn't I? I'm very well aware that you can make it do it. You can do anything in *nix through config files and scripts.
That, however, is not acceptable for an end-user desktop! I know that Slack isn't even trying to be a "friendly desktop" OS, but a geek-paradise mega-configurable, super-duper workstation or server OS.
Know what the best idea ever to happen to Linux on the desktop will be, regarding turning off your computer?
THAT WILL BE IT. Choose "Log Out" from Workspace Manager in GenSTEP, and you'll be greeted with a lovely dialog asking if you want to log out, or turn off your computer! Choose "Shut Down" (Power Off is far too literal to give you further choices) and it will ask you if you want to turn it off or restart it!
And all of this is handled in GUI! :-p
BTW... what the Hell is "Linuxoze"

Variety is a wonderfull thing.
