I think I extracted it correctly.
then I ran ./configure
then I typed in make but it said '... no makefile found.'

Then you introduced dual booting multiple linux distros along with XP.
Not a good idea in this day and age.
I think your objective should be to get to the point of having a single
linux boot, with VBox running
I'm curious. What is your old reliable?
I agree with bloat. Seems Linux just keeps on growing. I had not pondered
this much, except recently when I replace a Fedora Core 2 server with CentOS
6. I ran the Fedora box for 5 years as a local LAMP dev box.
I wonder if there is a thin Linux.

Users keep demanding MORE FEATURES, so the space that software requires keeps
going up.
I wonder if there is a thin Linux. Of course right out of the

I install and wrap up an ubuntu server package with a 4gb lvm pv that I
deploy with esx. For server, with a full default install (plus
likewise, vmtools, snmpd, vim, and some other defaults) it fits snugly
at 800mb on all lvm's. I split the 4gb disk hard provision /boot now to

okay I enabled the guest account but that didn't improve the situation
any. I checked localhost:631 and the printer is listed. (weird thing, from
the laptop it is listed as a different model. It works so I don't really
care)

I was thinking the same question.
If VB won't run on old reliable, then find a new reliable that's as
close as possible to old reliable (afa the desktop goes), run new
reliable on bare iron, and run everything else as VMs under VBox.
FWIW, I've been running Ubuntu 10.4 LTS since 10.10 or so
Are you trying to install a gimp plugin? Is your gimp install from source?
I'm not familiar with this exact setup, although normal if you're plugin is
from source your main program would need to be installed from source as
well. You might be able to install gimp-devel if you have a packaged

I actually have two old reliable systems. One is about a 5-year-old
Mandriva, but unfailingly stable). The other is PCLinuxOS 2009 with KDE
3.5. It is by far the best system I have ever used or seen. I have
PCLinuxOS 2011 on another system, just updated it today to 2012, and the
latest version
