| ... & to add - Vox installed me on X1000: AEON Ubuntu 12.04 LTS [paid] and then added KDE, LXDE & latest Kernel & gfx drivers.
I still didn`t see how Linux works on X1000 but I will do it as soon as I go to Vox and pick Amiga again :) _________________

Welcome back from me too.
I don't know if it will work on a Sam 460 but check out
[url=http://mintppc.org/]Linux Mint for PPC machines[/url (Mintppc)].
It isn't part of the official effort (the maintainer has some issues with them), but Trevor apparently finds it works well on his X1000.
Haven't tried it myself yet but the x86 version is a really nice distro. _________________

I've been reading a lot about Mint, and it sounds interesting. Thanks for the advice. |

Thank you. From your Sig, it looks as if we have the same set up. Might be looking you up, from time to time. |

My wife said just yesterday "You're really excited about this new computer, aren't you?" Yes, oddly. I feel like a kid waiting for his Captain Midnight decoder ring to come in the mail. |

Sorry to hear. Linux can be a bit of a bear, I know. But until Libre Office is finished and some other software pieces come back up, it may be a necessary evil. |

When Captain Midnight uses his Amiga, he drinks his Ovaltine. Amigans who want a decoder ring should also drink Ovaltine.

You're welcome, when are you expecting delivery? I am very happy with my system, since I've had it I've hardly used my MacBook Pro! Let me know if there's anything you need help or advice with, along with many others on here to help of course _________________
