I found this thread rather interesting. I've tried Red Hat / Fedora, Ubuntu, Suse, and Mandriva on my box before, and web browsing and network speed were the same for each distro, and all of them were faster than Windows on the same box.

Thanks for the info :). I was wondering why changing the background of the login screen wasn't doing anything.

I sent Rio an e-mail once suggesting that they add the ability to play ogg files back into their players, and they said they would pass the suggestion along. Of course, now that another company has bought Rio, who knows what's going to happen to them. But in the mean time, there's always the GP2X :).

You deleted Skype, but did you also delete your Skype settings? They're found in ~/.Skype. Also, are you using a USB audio device, or are you using your system's sound card?

Thanks for the reply. I've done that search before, and it doesn't really produce anything I consider worthwhile, so I was hoping someone would have some knowledge of something good that perhaps doesn't readily appear on Google. It seems like the only three mud clients that are still actively developed are MudMagic, which just doesn't work right for me, even after compiling it for myself, gmud, which is for Gnome and I use KDE, and Jamochamud, which has some quite annoying bugs. In the mean time, I've been using kmud, but it's quite old and still relies on QT 1. If someone knows of anything that I've overlooked, I would love to hear about it. /* Edit */ I take back what I just said. Apparently Gnome mud can be made to work just fine with only gtk+ installed, without needing any of the extra Gnome-specific libraries installed.

That's always been the way it's worked for me. For instance, if I type urpmi gtk2-devel, it will download all of the packages and dependies to the cache, and then it will install them. But it doesn't start actually installing them until they've all been downloaded to the cache.

I think he's asking if there's a way to grab the entire rpm tree from the urpmi site and have it sit on his computer, so if he ever wants to install a new rpm, he can do it directly from his disk instead of having to download it each time.

I know that muds aren't nearly as popular as they used to be, especially with free projects such as Planeshift floating around, but I was wondering if anyone could suggest a truly good Linux mud client? Thanks :).
