What exactly is that doing?

Yep! Thanks for the help btw. If I disappear it's not me ignoring you but going to bed.

I don't have those options. My tabs are: Updates, Third-Party Software, and Authentication.

Under Third-Party Software there are alot of different stuff there. Should I unclick the Dell ones?...

Thanks, but no dice. It just ran the update manager same as before. :/

At the top of what? All I get is a little window asking if I would like to check for updates. If I click yes, it does a check tells if there are updates available or not, and then asks if I want to...

So... yeah. Decided I would put on my 'Big Damn Hero' hat and venture in the wilds of Ubuntu. My Mini9 w/Ubuntu has been great this past year, but mostly b/c I haven't tried to actually DO...

Bad Timing. Got enough on his plate right now without delving into geekdom.

Wait till he starts working on his budget.

B/c thats what my computer came with.

Well... yeah. That's the whole point of contractors, you can hire/fire at will. In any situation they are going to be the first to go.

Actually, no. They are actually hiring on the OS and Entertainment side of the corporation.

These layoffs were mostly admin, sales, marketing and services.

Yeah, bad news all around. One of my old roomates lost her job today. One of my current roomates lost hers a month or so ago (she actually was a Contractor). My other roommate is okay so far, as...

Well generally newer is better, no? I mean 98 was better than 95, ME was... er... nevermind.

Seriously though, are newer versions not generally better?



Considering that this machine was...

So I've had my Mini9 for about two weeks now, and am ready to actually 'do' something. I've tweaked it, FF, and Pidgin, but only minimally. I've read that 8.10 has a lpia version and was wondering...

And 6% couldn't get Evolution to work properly and so never responded.






I KID, I KID!

Good article. I would think Ubuntu is most suited to such situations.

I thought the whole purpose of the Ubuntu experiment was to try and take Linux to the masses?



The masses don't want to spend all their time looking up tutorials and code.

Signal Corps? (Not to familiar with Non-Combat Arms Branch Insignia)

26, and so far just surfing.

I'm a 27 year old male. My wife's into computers, went to school for Information Systems, and the one that got me into Linux. I am computer illiterate, and only here b/c I'm too stubborn to ask her...

A Husky fan can't afford to be elitist. :p

You want a serious answer?

Okay, my job is to learn the art of killing. My mission is to close with, engage and destroy the enemies of the United States. I wanted to be able to take college, but...

Depends on what skill level you're talking about. Change a tire, know how to check your fluids, that level, okay you got a point.

Rebuild and engine, swap a tranny, I think you are asking too...

:lol:

I love Internet Warriors.

:lol:



Of course not!

Nice dodge. In case you forgot, you said:



B/c they don't meet your measurement of computer literacy, and don't care to, you don't want them to use your system. Why not? What effect does it...

A nice demo/walk through would be...
