So far I am *very* contend with it, and have Debian Etch and Fedora7 images installed (running on my Kubuntu Feisty system). It is very much faster than I had expected for my single core, single processor system.<BR/><BR/>This is really good for testing our tools. Fedora has, for example, a much more up-to-date support for the free Java virtual machines, than Ubuntu has.<BR/><BR/>Anyone with tips for running Win98? I have my old install CD somewhere, and want to give that a go too.Egon Willighagenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07470952136305035540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7844526396210378482.post-76228175799520599152007-06-21T15:10:00.000+01:002007-06-21T15:10:00.000+01:00If you're behind a proxy, in your .profile put "ex...If you're behind a proxy, in your .profile put "export http_proxy=http://whereever.org:portno"<BR/><BR/>and in the manual configuration of Iceweasel connection settings put<BR/>"whereever.org" into the HTTP proxy box (note: don't include the http://), and the port number in the port box.Noel O'Boylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03288289351940689018noreply@blogger.com
