Sounds good to me. I have a lab also, that's going to get some upgrades soon.

You seem like a good person to race. Blew by me awhile ago when the farm was smaller. -OC3d

Just so you know, Ubuntu is a variant of Debian. Debian and its variants are often highly-recommended to new Linux users because of their excellent package management, stability, (especially so for the variants) easy installation, and large support communities. Ubuntu comes in 2 flavors each...

In KDE you can find a nice set of context menus for the mouse right-click for managing/mounting iso's. It is available at www.kde-look.org in the service menus section. These menus will only be available when you right-click an iso file. They are easy to install.

Seeing as I have several builds uncompressed on my Duallie.... I generally reboot off a live CD with the exact same kernel/cloop module as the one I'll be remastering. I pivot my root to the uncompresssed system on the drive, mount /proc and such. Then update and gut the system with apt-get...

winamp runs in wine with almost 100% functionality.

You need unofficial sources in your /etc/apt/sources.list. To find this particular source search for "mplayer debian sources" in google. I don't know the url off-hand, but its ftp.nerim.something.....

My distro's not cooked from scratch but from a lovingly prepared stew consisiting mostly of Knoppix, with dashes of pure Debian, Kubuntu, Kanotix, and KDE-look.org. Also, mage was a big help taking my linux-client based folding service to the next level. And its my co-developer that works out...

Mage!! Can't you just use su -c in your script? In my fold services on Overclockix, I always launch folding with- chown -R user:user /the/fold/directory cd /the/folding/directory su -c "./FAHConsole -max -pwnage -flags > /dev/null &" user So while root launches my fold service as...

Get it here- Link You'll need bittorrent. Time for a new Overclockix iso! I call this one 3.79 (overdozed), and its basically 3.7 combined with LTSP 2.1, plus all of the look and new software from 3.8, but none of the bugs. So the kernels' (2.4.27 & 2.6.9) are not quite the newest, but...

Knoppix64 http://www.applia.fr/contents/knoppix64.html or Kanotix64. http://forum.kanotix.net/viewtopic.php?t=5474

Not to steal the thunder.... There's a more bloated distro out there based on Knoppix which can function as a fold server (with only 1 NIC), can fold when run live from CD (using a pendrive or hdd or network share or ramdisk for the folding directory), or can be a 20 minute HDD-install with...

errr Knoppix on the brain. knoppix is not the name of the kernel image for a kubuntu live CD. I'm not sure what is... might be linux, might be kubuntu. Consult kubuntu ppl/forums/docs to find out how to pass various options to the kernel and/or HW detection scripts at boot. In Knoppix this...

I do it this way- Run the linux distro's installer to create at least two Linux partition(s) at the front of the disk. Then quit. Then install windows. Then install Linux. ex- /dev/hda1 - swap partition /dev/hda2 - root partition /dev/hda3 - C: for windows /dev/hda4 - extended...

What video card? I'd bet that using the cheatcode- knoppix 2 will get you booted into text mode just fine. Sounds like kanotix is choking up on your video hardware. There are other cheatocdes that might remedy this, but it will help to know what kind of hardware you've got. PS-...
