[gentoo-dev] Several question

[marius.br]

1) I need some packages and I don't know which one I have to use:

 1. An X-Email-Client
 2. An Environment for Turbo Pascal (best would be for X)

2) What wm do most people use (except gnome and kde)

3) What's the most popular browser?? I like Opera, but I hate closed source.

4) Installing the nvidia driver prints this error:

Hi!

The answers to most questions below is a matter of taste. I'm a gnomie
so you have to take that into account.

>  1. An X-Email-Client

Evolution (gnome-apps/evolution) is a really great email/calendar app.

>  2. An Environment for Turbo Pascal (best would be for X)

Not sure if there are any IDE (Integrated Development Environment) that
handles Turbo Pascal. Don't think there even is a ebuild for any pascal
compilers.

The way I'd go is by using Emacs with a pascal mode ( I think there are
some ). You could probably use VI too, I'm not sure about pascal mode
for VI but I'd guess there are some.
 
> 2) What wm do most people use (except gnome and kde)

GNOME and KDE aren't window managers. They are Desktop Environments.
GNOME currently uses Sawfish as window manager. KDE has kwm (I think).

Black Box is a pretty popular window manager. It's fast and small.

> 3) What's the most popular browser?? I like Opera, but I hate closed source.

I personally like Galeon (which is the best browser I've ever tested), I
haven't tested Opera though. As you, I'm against closed software.

It's available in net-www/galeon. It uses mozilla's renderwidget (so you
also have to install Mozilla for now).

Don't know nothing about nvidia-driver.

Everyone has their favorite, but I like sylpheed (it's on portage).

My favorite is xfce (it's on portage).   You can install kde and
gnome, too, and you can run all the apps you want under xfce.

I've tried Netscape, Opera, and Konqueror, and Opera is my favorite. 
I don't really mind paying a few bucks.

Good luck!
