I ran Five-0 for five days and I hate to admit but I’m back to Linspire 4.5. I turned off all dropsahdows,menu animations, event tooltip popups and it turned not to be the video performace problem but kernel. It is very improved and I was quite surprised with xorg performace on my poor 4Mb integrated INTEL video chip (much than XFree ) but overall OS performace was questionable (I did test on C-466 MHZ and P-III 1.03 GHz). It is clearly aimed to first time Linux users and undoubtedly consumer oriented disto.

Now I could be wrong but I think I am right on this.

When you go the the advanced option in the install and tell it to format the partitions it will give you the option to use Reiser or Reiser4 (You have to right click on the partition you want to format) So I went in by hand and created partitions. If you don’t partition the drive and put home on it’s own partition then he will fill the drive and not be able to get back into the machine without going to the command line and deleting files. My brother tends to fill his drive up with videos and MP3’s. By default Linspire puts all folders on /.

I found this out when setting up a PC for my brother.

If you use Reiser4 it will say Reiser4 for the filesystem) (If you look at your fstab file after install you see that it still tells you that it’s using reiserfs for root. If you go to the advanced install you can format partitions with Reiser4 but it tells you that it’s still exsperemental. They are using an updated version of Reiser3. One thing I think is bad though is that they have people believing that they are using Reiser4 out the box which is not true. I do like how they’re using Reiser4 now I always wanted to try it out. I guess improvements could have came with the kernel also, so I can’t complain so much about it. Last time I used it, the system was horribly unstable and seemed rather clunky. Re: Anonymous Penguin: Well, that’s also good to know. I think with enough time, anyone could come to terms with Gaim, OpenOffice, and other things as names. People have heard these things so many times, and associated with the icons and such so well it comes as second nature to them. So, I can’t say it’s a real name problem as it is a pattern problem. You also have to keep in mind knowing names of different applications from different OS’s and Arch’s alone. There’s also Internet Explorer, Outlook (or maybe Outlook Express) and so on with the list.

Things like AIM, or America Online Instant Messenger. Personally, when you’re on Windows, you end up using tons of different types of programs with different names. Well, honestly with names, I don’t see this as much of a huge issue either. Granted, there are security issues there, but users naturally tend to favor ease-of-use over security. She puts in a disk, the OS mounts the disk automatically, and it runs the supplied setup script. I don’t have to give my grandmother a tutorial in app installation.

One-click installation is one of the things that makes Windows easier to use. But I think we’re a long way off from addressing (1). Linspire goes some distance toward addressing (3) - and you can argue that, if people standardize on it, it would become the defacto standard - which addresses (2). Windows, etc) than with (1) the lack of solid one-lick installation of apps (don’t even start talking about rpm or yum - that isn’t what I mean and you know it), (2) the lack of standardization between distributions, and (3) rampant disdain for system configuration UI (instead, preferring that users drop into a command-line and run vi on various config files). But, in my opinion, the degree of user-unfriendliness of Linux has less to do with how well (or poorly) it models other operating system GUIs (ie. Look, I use Linux every day, I like it, and I’m not what you’d call a M$ shill.
