hey MichielioZ, kewl you like it, interested in if you find any problems after an install (notably the user-changing after an install). I'll try out that windows sharing stuff on kde, been playing kolf too much :P

Will the Nvidia drivers just be in the gaming version or in all versions of Morphix.
It will be in a minimodule. It's time to build out that modular idea, i just plan to include it in the gamingmod iso by default.

Was busy on a page (i expected that question

http://am.xs4all.nl/phpwiki/index.php/TransMod
I plan to work some more on this and other doc's, it's pretty fun stuff!
a snippet:
the translucency kernel module makes a read-only filesystem 'writeable', by using RAM as an overlay for any changes that might occur. When you make a change to the filesystem, the translucency module 'catches' your calls and redirects them to the ramdisk. To the normal application and user, it's just as if the read-only surface is an ordinary harddisk!
Not that much atm, but it's a start

Thanks.
Both, it should be just as usable without the installer (would be a waste to make one for only installing
)
Taking a look at qtparted (was looking into PartGUI and diskdrake too), got a screenshot of the PartitionMorpher-layout up at http://am.xs4all.nl/gfx/Screenshot-PM.png but morphix itself is eating up a lot of my time atm so it's starting to stagnate.
Why you make ask? i've been plugging too much, and other linux-people are starting to take notice: http://www.osnews.com/story.php?news_id=3011&page=2
Even got a request from the Czech Republic, a reviewer asking for a morphix-cd. Maybe i'm making it a tad too good?!
