I finally grew so tired of Windoze that I completely nuked my home PC and installed RedHat 8.0. Everything is running just fine. I bought StarOffice and it installed reasonably well (still trying to work out some of the minor pieces). The only thing I can't figure out is how to set things up so I can burn CDs.
I have a CD burner, I've set it up in Grub to mimic /dev/scd0, but I can't for the life of me get KonCD to work. It keeps spitting back error messages. Does anyone know of a nice HOW-TO or tutorial on how to get things working? It would have to be something fairly current since a lot has changed over the years.
I haven't really had any trouble with 8.0. The only thing I run into is trying to install source code. It seems i can't get anything to ./configure. Nothing too major, but I'd still like to figure out what the deal is there. Other than that, it seems to be working pretty good and I'm happy to have gotten completely rid of Windoze on at least one machine I own.
