Running Quirky 008 from Live-CD on an Athlon XP 1800+, Biostar M7VIW mainboard, 512MB RAM.
Fast boot but keyboard (PS/2) isn't active on splash page, impossible to set options or call F2.***Edited: was my fault
- the kbd plug went into the PS/2 mouse port (USB mouse here). What, after the splash page it worked regularly!!! All else valid.***
Keyboard layout is entered, but doesn't become active until set in the 'Mouse - Keyboard Wizard' dialog, which shows the previous choice already selected. After pressing OK there, the screen goes black except for about 10% of the top of the normal display, greatly enlarged. After exiting X with <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Bcksp> and restarting X, all is back to normal and the kbd. layout works.
** I see Barry's recommended correction to /usr/bin/xorgwizard just now, maybe gets OK that way.
Wired ADSL net connection works fast and fine no matter which path.
Gnome-Mplayer seems to have no problems with any of the video formats I've tested. On full screen, however, it does enter some kind of a slo-motion effect, possibly due to CPU overload; it doesn't lose a frame, however, and the sound is repeated at abt. 0,3 seconds chops without losing sync - never seen before, funny...
AbiWord seems quite stable, no odd behavior with symbols, and all TrueType fonts work regularly as before; is also way faster and better at inserting pictures in pages, which was a pain in the back up to now. Maybe the best AbiWord in years! Haven't yet tried printing.
No <Insert> key crash with SeaMonkey... Ahhh.
More testing going on, anyway IMHO it's already an incredibly wonderful Quirk. One thousand thanks Barry!
