I'd suggest you use a higher-level GNU/Linux distro. Slackware requires much more attention to detail. > Is there any real advantage over firefox? Chrome has a number of advantages. It has a smaller footprint, has a faster rendering engine and faster Javascript engine. There's less GUI eye-candy. One great feature is that each tab runs as its own process, so if one tab page hangs or crashes, that one tab page dies, and not the whole browser. Imagine if you have 6 or 7 tab-pages open and one of them crashes on Firefox - the whole browser will crash - with Chrome, only that one tab crashes. Sorry for going off-topic. alt.os.linux or comp.os.linux.setup/comp.os.linux.misc USENET groups would be more appropriate for general GNU/Linux questions/discussions outside of running Picasa on GNU/Linux :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google-Labs-Picasa-for-Linux" group.
