If only I had 7.1 on CD. Floppy-based installs seem like too much hand-holding these days.

Will the 'fox run on Tiger? 10-4, good buddy!

Was that from this set?

Does any documentation exist for programming the DSPs in the AV Quadras? I found this FAQ saying: The link doesn't work. Anybody know if/where the documents mentioned might be found online? I found some scans, and I think this is the developer note mentioned. I've always wondered if some...

There is a MW extension that allows the subcategories listed on a category page to be expandable, to any depth (IIRC). Wikipedia uses it. So it should be technically possible to create something like that. A "category browser" nav widget in the sidebar would be very useful. Maybe I'll have...

This is the current category system, to a couple levels of depth. (This is not an exhaustive list, though.) The absolute root category of everything is Category:Contents. Maybe seeing "everything" in one list will help. I think that much of what you're considering is already done in some...

FWIW, I've started some Category:navigation templates for the various model series.

If you have ideas for making the Main Page better, have at it. I pretty much don't ever touch it. Mostly my concern has been categorization, and templates. Many of the templates auto-categorize when fed the correct parameters, which is a huge win for organization. This is why I'm interested...

I don't think it's meant to be strictly hierarchical. Not everything can be pigeonholed. I think the somewhat free-form nature of the wiki is a strength. The category structure is roughly hierarchical, where it makes sense. But I also look at categories more akin to tags. There may not be a...

A modern GUI browser would be pretty cool. I'm still trying to get pkgsrc ported. I've been off that project for awhile working on other things, though. I'd like to try to get FLTK working. It's such a small library, that I'd think performance even on Quadras might not be too bad.

Very nice! Did you have to do much patching to get these to work?

I don't think I've ever zeroed mine. Fresh initialization and FS creation is all I remember doing.

First, WOW. Another very cool project. I'm running 10.5, but if the plug is pulled on PPC builds, I'll be out of luck. Second, can you lend me some of your free time? ;) My own s/w projects are stagnated because I have too little of it. :p Third, names. KaiserFox, PhyrePhauCs...

It's definitely designed to resemble the classic Win95 look. The lead developer (whom I correspond with) made that choice deliberately so that people wouldn't have to learn yet another interface. The part I like about it, is that it is fast enough to be marginally usable even on 68k machines...

Do you have a default DE in mind? Given your target hardware goals, I'm thinking maybe EDE/LXDE/Xfce.

Wow, very very cool. Congrats!

Wow! Good job!

I've been happy with Yellow Dog, but I've only used that as a server. For a desktop, you might consider one of the Ubuntu variants.

Nothing is quite as disheartening as finding a nice machine for a nice price and still not being able to scrape together the funds. :p :-/ :'(

OK, lightweight PPC *nix distro. What do you have to do? In no particular order (since I've never gone through this thought process before and am just throwing things out): Compile a kernel with support for just the hardware you're targeting Decide what package management system to use -...
