1. Has anyone tried gentoo on an old world machine? If so, were you able to get X working and was it any more speedy than YDL?
2. Has anyone managed to get BeOS usable in the modern world? I have Personal Ed. 5 preview and have had it running before, but don't know whether I can make it relevant and whether it's worth the hassle.
3. I wanted to use my 6500 to record stuff off a Tivo because it has the video in card. After trying a few things, though, I've found QuickTime's capture results to be prettty choppy. Anyone tried using that video in card to capture video under a *nix? If so, would it be good enough to make it worth the effort? This is a 275mhz 6500 with 96mb RAM and no l2 cache chip, so it ain't exactly a powerhouse.
Peace, Todd
