Hi,
I'm intending to migrate to Linux Ubuntu from Windows XP Service Pack 3.
Here are my System details:
Processor:
Pentium (R) 4 CPU 1.70 GHz
(ACPI\GENUINEINTEL_-_X86_FAMILY_15_MODEL_1\_0
512 MB of RAM
Network Adapter:
Intel(R) PRO/1000 MT Network Connection
Onboard audio:
Integrated PCI AC'97
ADI 1981A CODEC
SoundMAX 3.0 with SPX
Webcam
A4 TECH PC Camera V
Display Adapter
Intel (R) 82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV Graphics Controller
Disk Drive:
ST3802110 A (I guess it's my hard disk, and it's 80 GB)
DVD/CD-ROM:
SONY CD-RW CRX320EE
Printer:
HP PSC 1402
I want to know, if I install Ubuntu, will my all hardware work well and supported by Ubuntu OS?
If Ubuntu, won't automatically detect and install drivers for my Network Adapter, I won't be able to connect to internet. So if I have to download drivers from web, can you tell me where to download? so I may download and keep a copy of them in my data traveler USB device.
Will I be able to use my webcam in the messengers like MSN, Yahoo and Skype with my friends using Windows?
I have 4 partitions on my Disk, 3 are NTFS and one is FAT32
Can I just delete the C partition, and create a new one instead of it to use Ubuntu?
OR should I delete all the partitions? back up all the data of all the partitions? and then create all new partitions for Ubuntu?
And Can I install Ubuntu from a USB data traveler (Kingston) ? Because my CD writer isn't working properly.
Thanks in advance for your help.
