Hi,

It's not strictly a programming question but I was wondering if there is anyone else who has to work on windows at work but also does work at home on Ubuntu.

I think Ubuntu looks alright - I've even decided to stick the default brown theme - although with a different wallpaper. I like how the changes through the releases have been subtle, I think having a...

What ever ran on Acorn Computers ( We also used those old BBC computers at school ) - at home win 3.1 (while everyone else had win 98 ) - win me - win xp - ubuntu

Mounted an external hard drive on /home/james/temp and then did rsync /home/james/ /home/james/temp - came back several hours later to find about a dozen recursive backups of my home directory and my...

Raises a good question - why is the system beep sound always on by default - its damn annoying

Oh yea! Just finished downloading Gutsy and having a look around - one annoyance, my wireless card still doesn't work properly but nevermind.
