Good luck...we will help if we can.

the main thing is that I can do most of it myself with a little help from goole.
I thing she might like having profiles and being able to change anything she wants.

Before i even started this happened (http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=45020) but, on the other hand, Hoary installed great on my junk box. Maybee i can get enemy territory to run on that. well.... if i could get the mouse to work.

If you really want to only use Ubuntu....I would use the 32bit version.

my amd64 just doesnt like linux, i tryed several disros and ended up messing up my MBR and reinstalling XP over the top of its self. Luckely, there wasnt anything worth keeping on it.

my plan was to dual-boot for a month or so, trying to use linux whenever possible, then wheen myself off in another month.

i messed up my windows partition (files intact, wouldn't boot) during my first install of SuSE, and haven't done a reinstall of windows.

talk about head first! :roll:

I'll be here for support, cuz since I bought my PC (November last year) I haven't use anything but Linux, well actually I did install windows cuz I wanted to play, but after 15 min I said to myself, you can do this without this s***, so I ereased my windows partition, and that was all, 15 min of windows in my machine; so I know two or three tricks to make things work. Although I have to use windows at work, but I guess that doesn't count cuz the only thing I use is MS-Office, Internet, and some statistical package (all of them OpenSource :grin: )

See I would have asked for something else.. but Linux is a fine choice as well
