People are not familiar with the GUIs available on Linux (or provided by the Netbook manufacturers/retailers).
Still not sure why you insist on building from source (compiling) everything on Linux machines when you can use package managers like Synaptic Package manager or Yellow Dog Update Manager (used by RedHat) or the graphical tools related to software updates and repository management or Gentoo emerge similar to using BSD Ports. So sad!
