Sorry for the looong delay. It's partially because I the system it remote |
| 2 |
and I do not always have access to it, and partially because I nearly |
| 3 |
forgot about this :) Sorry for that. |

I tried, getting these ooold versions from the attic. But it still |
| 69 |
didn't work out. |
| 70 |
|
| 71 |
But the PC is a rather old one, and so I decided to go away from Gentoo. |
| 72 |
Using distcc helped, but only when I and my fast (well not really, but |
| 73 |
much faster than that old Sempron) PC were there. I decided to try |
| 74 |
Sabayon Linux, which is based on Gentoo, but binary. There is no KDE3, |
| 75 |
though, so I had to install KDE4. Which is somewhat slow, maybe Xfce4 or |
| 76 |
LXDE will be better. |
| 77 |
|
| 78 |
BTW, I'm not too happy with Sabayon either. The equo package manager is |
| 79 |
not as sophisticated as emerge, for example it looks like it is not |
| 80 |
possible to call it when another instance is already running. And I do |
| 81 |
not yet understand how I can mix equo with portage. But I dod not dig |
| 82 |
into this too much, the person using this PC mainly uses KMail, Firefox |
| 83 |
and aMSN, and this is working fine. |
| 84 |
|
| 85 |
Anyway, thanks both of you for your assistance. |
