kjaada,
First up, Happy New Year to you and yours.
I am still using stock standard PCLinuxOS 2007 with KDE. I have both google earth and kshowmail working with it. Also have Firefox 2.0.0.11 and Thunderbird 2.0.0.9 working very well.

626229 2008-01-02 08:15:00 Something very useful I have recently found out about PCLOS - the tool /usr/bin/remasterme. On my slow broadband it takes about 5 hours to update a new install of PCLOS - with this tool you can make an up to date new live CD. johnd (85)

Thank you! (Of course, I already knew that :( ) Another tall building leapt by a partnered bounder.

Hi Johnd
I have also dual boot install XP with PCLOS as I would like to switch over to tha later.
Would anyone of you be able to direct me how I can get all my Outlook data over to PCLOS(Evolution or similar).
Is there also a local(NZ) Pclos group?
Thanks

I have to agree:
Lots of "little things" I was used to are not there and no alternatives.
I do wish the 2 groups would get together instead of splitting things even further in
the linux world.Mr "Gates" must love the division.
