ish-aqua-advanced fixed a bug in the ish-metacity series and added this version, but gnome-look is not responding so I will have to update later.

Yes, tyme is correct, you need not do anything. I went from an Celeron 600/Intel 8210 to and AthlonXP 1900/VIA K7 without doing anything or having any problems. The upgrade option would be for something like a soundcard or videocard, but then there are other utils for that. The only thing I ever found the upgrade option useful for was if you fry a filesytem config or sys critical packages, or somehting drastic. It's about as useful as harddrake. That wouldn't be a clean install. I think you knew that, you just worded it that way.

Other than running alsamixergui and tinkering and not setting PCM above 2/3, there's nothing you can do, that I'm aware of.

that's been a big...long running issue many threads on the ubuntu forum about that for most with nvidia, it seems to be Option "RenderAccel" "true" in xorg.conf. Comment it out or remove it.

maybe it had to do with the /boot partition? ...which is useles...or should I say, not at all necessary or beneficial.

yup...this has always drove me nuts... and it doesn't make sense either.

That depends on many things. How often do you backup and what do you backup....what do you expect to be able to restore should there be a major prob? Win Ix has well stated a separate page file partition, but that is only necessary for intense apps or old computers. I never use ntfs, but I guess it's a good idea for most people. I don't do the separate partition for program files anymore either. Too much hassle in repair, and you end up fixing things continually, til the next disaster. The dual storage fat partition is also something I do, but it needs to be backed up regularly, incase of corruption, so I make several of these so making backups is quicker and easier. Lin Same.....what do you bkup, and what do expect to be able to fix? I use reiserfs and have for years w/o any issues. I no longer bother with diff /usr /tmp and /var. Time in making backups is much longer than just reinstalling. Preferences are in $HOME anyway, so I just back that up. If / is big enough then all is well.

no...just using a distro with a handicap ...but then, it must be nice to use pixmap themes w/o cairo bogging gnome down

xp= all master linux= all slave ...only way to go!

I've put together some clearlooks-cairo (current gnome cvs) themes. http://kwh.kernow-gb.com/~bvc/theme/gtk/clearlooks/cairo/ get them individually or ALL in one This is Executive

simple If you want the gtk it's Simple-gPerfect here; http://kwh.kernow-gb.com/~bvc/theme/gtk/Simple_Pak.tar.gz metacity is SystemGXL

In the future, here's the quick way to find out if it is available localhost:/# urpmf libgtkextra-x11-1.1.so.0 libgtk+extra-2_1.1:/usr/lib/libgtkextra-x11-1.1.so.0 libgtk+extra-2_1.1:/usr/lib/libgtkextra-x11-1.1.so.0.0.0 localhost:/# if it returns nothing try shortening it localhost:/# urpmf libgtkextra-x11-1 localhost:/# urpmf libgtkextra-x11 if you get nothing at this point it means it is not available in your sources. Add sources. When you find it (as above), just urpmi libgtk+extra-2_1.1

That's a pain in the ...... Don't forget that you have to run kcontrol as root to make the change. Wait, or do you?....you may get a popup asking for the root password if you try to change this as a user in kcontrol?

it used to be in the kde control center>login manager???>users??? and check off root. I don't use kde and haven't for a long time so I do not know if it is still there, or where?
