I got a Wild hair (what else could I have – I crack me up sometimes)….
I’ve been so busy at work the last 18 months I had little time to use my Linux box (Gentoo), which was so troublesome to build as I built it from scratch as my first ever Linux exposure.
Last weekend I blew out the old Gentoo and installed fresh. I remembered quite a bit, but many things changed and it still took about five days to build the system (one full day was spent installing KDE). It was a lot of fun, and I look forward to working exclusively on my Linux box from now on – excepting cases where I have to run Windows specific programs (which is not to say that I will not investigate WINe).
Just for kicks, I dragged an old Athlon 900 box out of the closet and connected a KVM. I installed Kubuntu on the old slower box, and now I have two Linux boxes running. The Kubuntu box is primarily to check out a Debian based system as I have zero exposure to Debian. Based on my limited interactions with both, it appears to me that Debian’s apt-get and Gentoo’s emerge package managers are very similar.
Now I’ll install php, apache, my Zend IDE and get to work (and probably CVS as well).
Anyone out there know how to resolve the audio/video (out of) sync problem with DVD movies in Kaffeine?
