    A new linux user!

    I have an old machine that I built a bunch of years ago. A year or so ago I installed Linux Mint 14 on it and then forgot about it. Today, I gave it to my 8 year old son. He loves it! He may be the youngest Linux user in the area.

    PCIe SSD

    I do very much like the idea of having one due to the cool factor. I wonder how they perform? Anyone know? Examples: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA3ER18A6339 http://www.asus.com/Storage/RAIDR_Express_PCIe_SSD/

    Kladiator, Homeworld is one of the best space RTS games of all time. I loved that game.

    No Cd

    Thank you booman! I found that earlier today. Messed around with it and got StarCraft running that way. I don't remember having to do that with earlier software. Your steps should keep me out of trouble.

    No Cd

    I made some progress. Homeworld Cataclysm is about the same as Homeworld. Both exhibit the same behavior. Cataclysm now runs with an update patch and a nocd.exe. Cataclysm runs good, but some odd return to desktop behavior in non windowed and windowed mode. Maybe, this problem has something to...

    No Cd

    After a long while I have decided to install Homeworld PC Game again. I have not had it on Linux Mint 16 before. I did the same install as on Mint 15, at least I think I did. The game installs fine but I get "invalid or no cd". Any Ideas?

    Linux Mint 16!!

    I installed the Mate version yesterday. It worked and looked good but not for me. I installed the Cinnamon version today and this is more to my liking. I wish I could get a 3d cube desktop.:)
