I've successfully installed Gentoo on my 10" netbook. I simply did 'emerge xorg-x11', which had 91 dependencies, which included lots of fonts. Fluxbox is working well. I prefer Luxi Mono for even-spaced font; size 8 seems best for a netbook. No problems with CPU power (ASUS 1005HA) or memory use. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
