If you want something as light as possible, I suggest running a distro such as Gentoo or Arch. Install what you want, leave out everything else.
It looks good, but I could never replace my current main distro with something else until I starts to gain traction. That being said, I may boot it up in a VM, repair some bugs, etc.
Source distros are definitely worth the effort if you want a highly customized machine. I am a Gentoo guy and have been for many years. The amount of speed gained by installing only what you want...
The way I learned almost everything about Linux is by trial and error. If I need something done on my machine or any servers, I look online for a way of doing it. Simple as that.
I would start...
Any format you go with will require some kind of codec.
I personally prefer AVI, MKV, or OGM formats.
Do you have all the repos enabled?
Agreed.
You will also need libdvdcss2 to break encryption.
Indeed HP laptops sometimes have issues.
Just got my Fiance's laptop running well again after a reinstall it it was all problems with default LiveCD.
Try the alternate CD.
The version you have downoladed is for 32 bit... Not 64
Agreed.
I would back everything up with LiveCD and do a reinstall.
It is always a good practice to put /home in its own partition.
Or even better, another hard drive.
Open your terminal and navigate to the folder you saved the file in and type
sudo sh ati-driver-installer-8-11-x86.x86_64.run
Should take you the the install
I should warn you though... ...
Check your Gnome settings.
How does your CPU and RAM usage look before it freezes?
Is it completely randomly or does it happen on a certain event?
Try Alt+Ctrl+Backspace to reboot X when it freezes to see if it is just an...
I'll second that.
Seen a lot of machines broken by a friend of mine not typing in commands properly.
Don't believe it shows on fresh install.
And I second the bash script idea.
Your script you wrote up looks fine to me.
I've never used the card personally but it should work fine with the binary nVidia drivers.
Should work find with Compiz as well.
No. As long as you use the same version of libtorrent to be safe.
I didn't find the solution anywhere, I just happened to come across it when looking at details. I recompiled libtorrent when I recompiled cURL just to be safe but you might just need to recompile...
Marked "Solved"
The problem lies in cURL not being able to send multiple tracker requests with large amounts of open torrents.
The Fix:
Compile c-ares which will allow simultaneous tracker...

It seems that rTorrent is having some sever freezing issues. I am running it with screen on Ubuntu Hardy. It will sometimes freeze for a bit and start working again or sometimes not come back from...
I would like to forward a range of ports to a single port so any incoming requests will be directed at a specific application.
IE:

Is there any way to forward all traffic from a port range of 1000 ports to a single port?
