Re: POLL: Linux preferences from FreeBSD users

2009-07-01 Thread Christopher Ryan Halbersma 

QUESTION: Of the various modern Linux distributions, which do you
prefer? and why?


None, I'm a BSD kindof guy :).  Although Damn Small Linux and Tiny Core  
are nice ideas.



I'm very interested to see the spread of opinion about Linux
distributions from FreeBSD fans.


Indeed why?

If google earth program is a Linux program, have you installed and
started the Linux ABI? Maybe the needed library will be required
to be located in the /usr/compat/linux/ subtree.





Anybody managed to get it to work?



Never tried, sorry.


Google earth is working on my box. But I am running 7.2 Release.
However it is touchy.  It will often crash the X server, it's slow and
if I change Virtual Desktops during startup It will crash very fast.
