(I can't find the "advanced editor", in order to mark this thread as "solved". So, if a moderator can do it for me...)
Hello there, oldfred.
I'm very sorry to be only answering you (and updating this thread) now... But, because this is a shared computer, that I was talking about... Shortly after I made the...
I've partitioned (by hand, and using a specialized tool/distro) a hard drive, using a "GUID Partition Table" (GPT) - with an exact (to the byte, non-2MB(?) interval) partition alignment - where I've...
Thank you very much for that information, parkham.
It might be an old thread, but the equipment is still laying around anyway, in case it might be useful someday. And if I need it again, now I...

One much simpler alternative to all of this...
You can always just install Lubuntu 12.04 and, at the login screen, choose Openbox, instead of LXDE, in the session type menu....
The folks at Crunchbang have made a great work in producing a distro with Openbox installed by default, but it's based on Debian. For those of you who want some of Ubuntu's functionalities - like...

I had the same problem, with this model, of a slow connection and frequent connection losses on Ubuntu 10.04 lucid.
I've installed a new kernel and the problem was solved.
There's no need to use "ndiswrapper" and follow all those complicated instructions.
You can easily solve the problem, simply by switching to a different kernel.
Same problem here. And it's easily solved.
As of December 2011, and using that same "version 4" model on Ubuntu 10.04 lucid, I can confirm that switching to a different kernel - simply by...
Yes, for netbooks it does make sense to use as less pixels as possible, in order to have more free space on the small screen. But for those kind of computers there are specific distros (of which I...
Unity is horrible.
Way more complicated than GNOME.
We don't need integrated windows borders just to save a few pixels. Most of us have big screens by now.

I think it' a bug in "phonon", since K3b also...
