Okay, I looked a the page Nation.A.List linked to: it is definitely a source file -- to use, you'll need to compile it.

If you're not familiar with linux, I highly recommend that you do NOT do that.

Just setting up your machine to compile will likely drive you insane. It may not even be possible, if the proper components are not in the Hasty repository that we are all linked to. And that source probably also needs more recent components than Hasty offers (it's a Jaunty source file, after all.)

If you were to properly set it up, and somehow get all the dependencies properly acquired (search the term "dependency hell") it would likely take a very long time for this machine to actually compile something, given its massive restrictions in memory, processing power and storage space.

I'm not an expert, but it seems like there are too many barriers. Finding a way to apply a workaround ("clock=pit") will probably be much easier.
