Thanks.
I think I'll probably stick to it.
But for now I found some new issues:
- gnash is pretty slow. Adobe's flashplayer is much more efficient.
- without any window manager it's hard to 'fullscreen' flashplayer, so I've added openbox.
- when display is rotated (verticaly) any mouse movement causes crash of Xorg.
- I can't disable mouse (or mouse cursor) in Xorg.

3. AIX
Hi,
I would like to know, is there a thing that AIX would do it, and RHEL or SLES would not? Something specific and great in the same time.
It might sound weird, but I'm very curios.

What is your favorite Linux distro?
and possibly why?
Personally, I have Fedora 3 on my computer. I have used Ubuntu and Slackware, too. But I think I liked Ubuntu more, maybe because of its speed and easy installation of packages. (192 Replies)

ctrlaltdel
CTRLALTDEL(8) Linux Programmer's Manual CTRLALTDEL(8) NAME
ctrlaltdel - set the function of the Ctrl-Alt-Del combination SYNOPSIS
ctrlaltdel hard|soft DESCRIPTION
Based on examination of the linux/kernel/sys.c code, it is clear that there are two supported functions that the Ctrl-Alt-Del sequence can perform: a hard reset, which immediately reboots the computer without calling sync(2) and without any other preparation; and a soft reset, which sends the SIGINT (interrupt) signal to the init process (this is always the process with PID 1). If this option is used, the init(8) program must support this feature. Since there are now several init(8) programs in the Linux community, please consult the documentation for the version that you are currently using. ctrlaltdel is usually used in the /etc/rc.local file.
