I've done this conversion to at least 5 computers and I get far fewer calls than when said computers ran windows. As long as you find out up front what the users needs are and make sure Ubuntu can...

This is absolutely correct. I have a netbook that has never suspended correctly prior to Karmic. With previous releases (namely 8.10 and 9.04) suspend/resume never worked out of the box. It always...

I might add that you may want to search the forums to learn how to put /home on a different partition during your reinstall.

This will make future reinstall/upgrades much easier.

Actually...

I have a copy of the memory upgrade document. I'm at work right now, but I can post it or email it to you if you like.

I haven't kept up with this thread for a while, but just read over it.
I've...

It's a KDE application, so it installs a bunch of KDE packages.

However, looking at what you have posted, it appears you have as many unneeded package installed already that you can get rid of by...

It's Linux,

and I dig Linux

I'm using the LPIA, I think that there is some performance improvement and others have said they feel the battery life is better.

I've used the Remix interface and really don't care for it. So...

I haven't checked this thread in a while so I wanted to chime in regarding 9.04.

I've been using the lpia version since beta and have brought it current with updates. It seems to work very well....

Very cool info regarding the memory. Looks like I'll be upgrading soon as well. May also look at upgrading the hard drive.

I also wanted to share that I've installed the latest daily 9.04 lpia...

That looks fine.

While it won't hurt anything, you could easily get by with probably a swap partition half that size. Probably much smaller.

My system has a 1GB swap partition and I rarely see...

How much RAM does the system have?

If you have 1 GB or more, you may rarely see any Swap activity.

Actually it doesn't, providing you know which packages to select for the install.

There are a couple of guides out there that explain how to do this.

You can actually have quite a slim...

I used one of the first versions of Ubuntu Studio and the realtime kernel was great.

Later versions where not so great. Could never get it to run correctly with Nvidia drivers and the xruns where...

While it's not Ubuntu, it is Linux:

All my guitars are equipped with Ernie Ball strings because of this.

Excellent! You DA MAN!!!

Is it correct that the Meso will upgrade to 2GB of RAM?

What are the exact specs of the memory that is uses?

it should work?

I've got the Sylvania G Meso and so far, pretty happy with it.

I got it cuz it was cheap and came with Ubuntu installed. I did, however, upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10.

From what I can tell, the...

I've searched the web trying to find information regarding this but can't find anything specific for the Sylvania. I've found a couple for different netbooks and they look pretty straight forward.
...

It's my understanding that it does support 2GB, but the ram is not easily accessible. It most certainly would void the warranty. Not sure of the type of RAM, but I would like to upgrade mine as well....

No, I don't auto-login, that must be it, I suppose. In that case, not sure....

The settings aren't in Skype but rather in your main audio mixer settings. In Skype just leave everything default.

To get to your system audio mixer double click on the speaker icon you use for...

That's odd, mine doesn't ask for a password unless I log on to a different network, then switch back to my network or something. It seems that it sometimes asks for it sporadically, but its always...

After you establish a connection with the other party....theres a little blue button, click that and it gives video options

Do you have Front Mic chosen as your input source in your audio mixer? Also turn up Capture and Capture 1 in your mixer as well.


I've used it with an external monitor. I did have to monkey...

Muzincs,

I installed Skype on my desktop. When I call it from my netbook, the camera seems to work fine. I do have to click the little blue button and choose "Start My Video"

When you choose...

Well, it's getting pretty close to my bedtime.

Us geniuses need our rest!:wink:

But seriously, I'll play with it a bit tomorrow, I think we should be able to get it working. Probably a config...
