As with all the other versions of Arc Linux I have tried, this one sucks. The distro may be fine but it would only give me a 640x480 display which isn't enough screen real estate to even think of not having scroll bars but they don't. I went to both the Arc and the KDE control panel and then shut off the computer, removed and then broke the disk into many fragments. And yes I am having a bad day. Had a hard drive crash on this here linux box (was waiting for it to happen before putting stuff on it). And the iBook drive went to making noises again both within 15 minutes of each other... :-( Okay, update time.
