[linrad] Back again to linrad
Hello Linrad friends,
Many time without posting anything here, but I wanted to try something
new and I uninstalled Mandrake 9.1 and 6.1and installed Debian Linux
Woody 3.0 in my athlon 1200 MHz and my 486 DX2 66 MHz computers. I
wanted a really free distribution and Debian was what I needed! (it
makes me feel better..hi). A friend of mine with fast internet access,
downloaded for me three installation disks full of software(there were
more cdrom disks, but I let my friend free....hi.hi.) After some days of
learning the "new" linux I have everything working again ( the X server,
the winmodem (thanks to "linuxant" that makes drivers for conexant
chips), tv-card and sound were a bit difficult to set up, but It was
good for learn linux...hi) The debian package system is very good, I am
really impressed.
I used nasm and svgalib packages included in the disks, without
especial dificulties.
I send this email to the list just to share my experience. It would be a
great thing that a Linux guru could make a Linrad package with
everything built in, to make it easy for the linux newbies.
Now I can start my tests with linrad, also I want to test the ALSA
drivers, now I have the OSS/free modules included with the kernel.
I will tell you.
Ramiro, EA1ABZ.
