I was thinking about getting a usb modem, however, all the sales guys I spoke had no clue about ubuntu's ability to work with it.

I was also interested in tv cards and whether they can also work...

Helo

Is ubuntu designed to accept a usb connection?

Is there anyone who speaks greek?

For english speakers, not having a neuter like the french would be strange, as most english words are neuter.

Yes the Latin, Italian, French, German and English do have a lot in common at least...

Hey Arkenzor, you are correct with those countries. The reason that I thought it that feminine was the rule for french geographic names is that most of the continents and france itself are all...

I agree smartyboyathome, what you are talking about are exonyms as opposed to endonyms. I am not sure if Greece uses the same Latin geographic nomenclature in generally applying a feminine gender to...

Hey handsdown

could be a clue, also Greek: Ελλάδα, transliterated: Elláda contains Ella as the word stem which is a latin word for woman. But I am still guessing :)

as an alternative to the usual amd intel nvidia gear, why not try looking at the alternatives of Via C7 with OCZ ram, sun/solar sparc, and ibm power.

ok I could have said the greek gender of the english word greece, although that would be have been confusing. All greek words have a gender of male female or neuter.

Hey

I looked it up in an english-greek dictionary, and found that the definition is:

Greece n (country) Ελλάδα ουσ.θηλ.
επίσημο Ελλάς ουσ.θηλ.

However...

In case you were still a core buyer, I just thought I'd add that the Xeon cpu (the wolfdale dual core is cheap and will work in $50-$100 mobos while the dunnington sexa core will cost) are the most...

The reason is that he has selected a core i7 cpu and I recommended the core i7 Westmere see my previous post; subsequently I realised that core was the name of a greek godess. The problem is...

actually I noticed that the core range from intel is loosely based on the greek godess core who goes by the name kora, persephone, proserpine or her roman name libera. Now that's ok if you like cora...

logos34, yes, it doesn't seem like dmidecode is the bible on this area. There's got to be an easy and reliable way?

In the end I just pulled it and checked the sticker, pc100 no problems.

I tried "dmesg" with no luck either.

Then I went back and realised that "dmidecode --type memory" does give some potentially useful information:

128 MB
70 ns
Dimm SDRAM
Single Bank...

I checked, sadly only says the size 128MB not the speed.

didn't find the lshw probably because it is running on a light linux distro due to age of pc.

An alternative to 1 powerful is 2 not as powerful, one for online use and one for private use eg:

1. Supermicro with Phoenix Bios (defintely not ami bios) board with the Bearlake, Glenwood or...

Old pc 128MB ram, P3 cpu

cat /proc/meminfo works and tells me the amount but doesn't tell me the speed

dmidecode --type memory or --type 17 again tells me the amount but not the speed

how...

That is awesome, lol, I have been trying to get that running for ages. *does a couple of laps of the room* :D (posted while using epiphany on 7.04)

ok I found these, now what do I do with them?



Package epiphany-browser

* etch (stable) (gnome): Intuitive GNOME web browser
2.14.3-7: alpha amd64 arm hppa i386 ia64 mips mipsel...

we are in absolute starters, aren't we? ok then

what about http://www.getdeb.net/

is it a case of finding the correct deb file and double clicking on it?

ah nuts it only has:

Ubuntu...

did you mean this?

su && apt-get install epiphany-browser?

I tried it anyway:

su && apt-get install epiphany-browser

Sorry.

cool link, and I wrote a question to their mailing list about this, but I can't see an obvious approach there either.

it points to an error, what to do with it anyway, I am not familiar with...
