    Debian / Fedora Megathread!

    My first distro was SuSE. We had a webserver and the IT contractor installed Linux SuSE on it. so I started learning about Linux. Then I installed OpenSuSE on an extra desktop and started messing with it. After that I went to Fedora 8 and started setting up my first server. This was in 2005...

    Adventures in VM's - Why we beat ourselves daily with a pen

    thats funny, pretty clever! I'm kinda surprised that minecraft runs in Win2000 I have played Warcraft, Doom II, Hexen and Heretic via IPX in Windows XP. Works great and isn't very hard to setup. This was in the last 6 years too. Its amazing how you can still use those old protocols even today.

    Assassin's Creed Revelations Guide

    Yeah, I ran Revelations in the same virtual drive as Brotherhood and it worked perfectly so far. The mouse sensitivity is a bit high and I even tried turning it down in the options, but still too sensitive.

    The Witcher 2 Guide

    Interesting, I'll have to do some research on eON if there is anything out there. Just out of curiosity, not like I'm going to use it

    The Witcher 2 Guide

    Oh, that shows you how much I have researched Wine. I only really know about PlayOnLinux. So was that a sign that eON can't really hold up like PlayOnLinux and Wine?

    Thread set: OS's.

    Don't forget we are pretty small at this point. If we have separate forums for each popular OS and only a handful of us use them, then there probably won't be a lot of posts. Of course I'll give my two-cents on just about any post anyways! As we get bigger this would be great because I'm sure...

    Adventures in VM's - Why we beat ourselves daily with a pen

    Here is something crazy! Setup a LAN game with DOSbox and play Heretic or Hexen deathmatch over IPX between two computers running two different Linux OS's in two different VB sessions on the same computer!

    Neverwinter Free MMO Guide

    Ooh... knowing what graphics card/chip you have is critical for playing games. Do you know the model # for your MSI board? You can look it up and find out what graphics integrated chip it has. This is important because if there is no proprietary driver for it, you may have problems playing games.

    SHOUT BOX :D

    I guess it comes down to convienience. I visit the home page about 10 times a day. If I see someone chatting, I might join in, I might not. I didn't check out the IRC channel because I would have to sign up on yet another website/service. I'm already an active user here so it would be a nice...

    Might and Magic 6 Guide

    Neverwinter Free MMO Guide

    Ah, one of my favorites for sure! I'm not a "huge" fan of MMO's but Drakensang is my success story with PlayOnLinux. Drakensang is an MMO RPG with a lot of Player vs Environment. IT really encourages cooperative gameplay, which I love! The best part of Drakensang is the 14 Megabyte (Yes I...

    The Witcher 2 Guide

    Aryvandaar - Agreed. Its a joke to Windows users who find out that some Linux games are really a Windows game with 3rd party tools. I know a lot of games can get away with this, but they are older games. I'll stick with PlayOnLinux and Native ports as long as I have a choice. Allen - Are you...
