    Yikes! Perhaps you would like one of my scooters. :)

    I'd imagine at that price, cars in general would be hard to sell. Heck, gas powered anythings.

    If it wasn't clear, that card was recommended. I have a stack of working older video cards, but nothing close to that powerful. I have a 1Gb Zotac (some off brand that I wound up with) and a 512...

    I have several "good enough" video cards. I'll probably stick a PCIe 1Gb DDR3 from the old box. I have AGP and PCIe cards for video. Prefer PCIe because I have better cards.

    [ubuntu] Re: opening .cdr files

    CDR is Corel. Closed source, proprietary format. afaik you cannot convert those images unless you have Corel.

    As much as I dislike Adobe, Corel seems to be worse.

    [ubuntu] Re: Problem with playing a HD movie?

    Few questions

    Your monitor is HD?

    What format is the video?

    What are you using to play the video?

    Is it choppy or grainy when you playback?

    If you are trying to edit your hostname (e.g. user@hostname as seen in terminal)

    edit /etc/hostname


    sudo nano /etc/hostname

    and then just rename and reboot

    Not at that stage. The only errors I get are from requesting package data (updates) or trying to install packages from the repos.
