Re: First time starting Gentoox
yes a USB keyboard will help, however you can connect via SSH - I use SecureCRT (the best IMHO) cost$ a few bucks though... you can also connect using RealVNC through an X display - if VNC server is running. I don't think it is by default though. I don't know of any shareware/freeware SSH clients perhaps google will help ... SSH + ClientCyberkiddie wrote:Hello Gentoox'ers

Putty is a freeware ssh/telnet client "I think a ssh client is a ssh client" I have tried other's but they all do the same thing so why pay for something that you can easily get for free.ToeRag wrote:I don't know of any shareware/freeware SSH clients

Okey , ive installed Home , and i have chose KDE , and al the samba crap etc... all yes start at bootup ?
good ?
but now i see the desktop (userface)
i can do some basic funtions , but i can't load webbrowser etc.

I see a desktop function by perichles or something like that..
there i can change my videocard , soundcard , monitor etc.
can i just pick a videocard ?
Like the NvIdeA GeFoRcE 3 MMX ?
and just pick a monitor and set the resolution and hertz on 85 ?
800 x 600
85 hertz
? would be much easy'er than the xbvset

yeh , my tv can handle 100hz , it works perfectly ,
800*600 and 85hertz.
almost no flickering at all
but there is just something that sucks.
i don't sit 2meter in front of the tv to play with linux.
The text size is (example) AIM , MoZillA , Konquerer , is so small , i need a magnifier to see the text.
Is there an (software) magnifier (zoom-lens) available for Gentoox ?
where can i download such a tool ?
would be very usefull , not only for me i think.
