Description Tiago Freire 2003-04-16 14:24:39 UTC
gaming-sources is great. I had two compilation running simultaneously, and they were 
barely noticeable while I was using my desktop (kde 3.1.1). The problem is: the name 
gives the impression that it is only suitable for gamers, and in fact it is not. At first I 
installed gentoo-sources, but gaming-sources leaves it in the dust in terms of 'Desktop 
Responsiveness'. So, my proposal is that gaming-sources changes its name to 
desktop-sources, to broaden userland perception of its usefulness.
