Ooops, that should have read I have NO performance complaints on Windows 7 on my laptop.
Since we're on the topic of running SVN builds of KiCAD, I have always wanted to build KiCAD from the sources just to satisfy my own curiosity as well as try hacking some things just for fun. I've tried a couple of times to get everything together to compile, but kept running into trouble. Since I am not as familiar with Linux as I am with Windows, I am open to it being all my fault and just not understanding some of the requirements. Is there an updated set of instructions for exactly how/where to obtain the 3rd party items and what has to built and how? Thanks, Greg
