i think you need to use framebuffer driver for GS. that's what i heard anyway.

i'm planning to use text mode, though. it's not like Xvesa/Xvfb takes so much ram anyway ;-)

well, i know you can run gnome on it without a problem ... (well, if you can run gnome on a less than 2 mb ...

and you don't need 32mb for anything special, maybe if you open firefox, gaim, etc ...

there is a linux for ps2 downlaodble with kde, but can't find it anymore

Someone has kde/gnome/xfce or other working on blackrhino ?
I'm almost done with getting games/linux on one hdd, etc, now, i just can't get a interface working, if someone has, can you tell me how you did it, or even better give me a copy of your files ?

Thanks Nick
