I wonder what one should do: 1. Try to multi-boot Kubuntu and eCS? Would this work? 2. Install Kubuntu and run eCS in a virtual machine as a guest? (64 bit VMWare 4.0 supports OS/2 4.51) 3. Install VMWare and run Kubuntu and eCs as guests? (The T61p processor is a T9300, ready to support virtual machines.) If someone knows of a "how-to" to do any of the three choices above, could you please let me know? Any help or clue you might be able to give is appreciated! Lothar Come to Warpstock and see it for real. I run WinXP, Ubuntu, and eCS on my T61. I use the IBM Boot Manager and install GRUB into the Ubuntu partition. I used to have Kubuntu, but I got so frustrated dealing the KDE4 that I finally gave up and went to Ubuntu. The KDE folks seem to be trying to make it be more and more like Windoze (we know best type of thing), and I finally gave up on it. -- Chuck McKinnis 1449 State Highway 14 N Sandia Park, NM 87047 505-286-3191 http://www.7cities.net/~mckinnis/ Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ.
