Hi folks: ok -- we didn't get the snow day I was hoping for, but, I decided to go ahead and work on the new install anyway. -- Call me crazy --
I am in the process of the build now, and am beginning to think about software, and I am not sure that I understand how to properly install stuff. For example, there are programs from several different families that I like and that I want to use. For example >From Gnome - I like Nautilus and gthumb (among others) >From KDE -- I like Konversation, Akregator, and DigiKAM And from Generic (no specific family) I like Audacity and the Gimp I am pretty sure most or all of these are in portage, so getting them is no big deal. I will be running Fluxbox, and I would like the programs with all their proper features, without the extra bloat that installing GNOME and KDE would bring. Can someone please advise on the proper way to go about doing this??? Thanks TIM -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
