aLinux 12.9 â A Blast From the Past
,----[ Quote ]
| How did I find aLinux 12.9? It surprisingly
| worked real well, for a hobbyist
| distribution. Packages were as usual, a
| hybrid of pretty old stuff and new libraries.
| GCC is a bit outdated; WINE is included in
| the install as well (itâs old though).
|
| The planets screensaver for the screensaver
| settings in KDE always crashed for me. Other
| than that, all else worked fine.

I did it! I found a Linux that works well with Laptops., I installed Mandriva ONE 2010

| For obvious reasons I did not install
| Mandriva FREE! I had no inclination of
| chasing all over the place for non-free
| drivers, and codecs. Although Mandriva ONE is
| a smaller package, this will suit me fine,
| since mostly everything works, including
| wireless laptop networking. And it was all
| inclusive in the "Live CD Installable
| Package". My only immediate concern is that
| I've not been able to install the printer
| drivers. The Mandriva printer setup is
| something that I've not encountered up 'till
| now. And my attempt only resulted in the
| whole thing bombing out.. It is supposed to
| go on the Internet and download some
| packages?? to be able to install the
| printers. But it seems that those
| applications are broken.
