Just a heads-up - I discovered that I do indeed have "accelerated"
video. I found out by turning off acceleration and the difference
was immense. I guess the single-buffered windows fooled me: moving a
window quickly sometimes produces artifacts which are not present in
OSX, which uses double buffered windows.
Not I just need to get a comfortable desktop environment. I hate KDE,
so it must go (too windows like) and I need to find out how to turn
on trackpad tapping and get some of the apps I use in OSX working
(things like RealAudio, a good TeX installation and MOL, for those
programs I need to run in OSX. Also a good mail program - any
suggestions?) I am inclined to use Windowmaker - as an old NeXTie,
it would be probably most comfortable.
Thanks for the help.
