However, since I now have the horsepower on my system (AMD64+2G RAM with a decent video card and 160M SATA drive), I prefer Stellarium and Celestia for astronomy shows. I still use Xephem for telescope session planning though, since it's lean and it's more geared toward professional use. BTW, Kstars is not Gnome; it's KDE/Qt. - Clear skies! -- // The TimeLord says: // Pogo 2.0 = We have met the aliens, and they are us! |
