Re: Distros you tried but didn't like

SCO Group's Wikipedia page will tell you more than you need to know about the courtroom sagas.

I still have my boxed copy of EDesktop 2.4 on the shelf.

Thank you for the link, though.

Re: Distros you tried but didn't like

I loved Caldera OpenLinux until the company changed up and started suing folks. Kicked 'em to the curb, I did.

Distro-drifted until I woke up on Mepis sands and saw the pyramids. I've been using MX for a good long time now. I stray long enough to get Antix on my netbook when I travel and AVLinux ...

Re: The amazing music thread

So, we were in a little stone house in Appalachian foothills, passing a guitar back and forth by the big fireplace after work. Everybody had a tune to share. This was not one of the tunes, but could have been:

Re: Happy New Year 2024!

It's quiet here now, just sitting by the wood stove with a kettle of water on top. Will probably brew some tea in a minute. I know that I haven't been around much these days but there is not a day that goes by that I don't use your Linux or think of ya'll.

I would like to thank all the fine folks ...

Re: Small problem with Mixbus 32C with AvLinux MXE [Solved]

Let's not be hasty (said the old Ent). Looks like the fellow over at LinuxMusicians has been helping you, as well as the Mixbus fellow, and you may have contacted RME.
