    [all variants] Re: How much RAM to leave for host?

    Short answer: 1GiB should be enough to let the host do what it needs to do (especially if it is just serving up VMs). The real questions you need to ask yourself, though, is: how many VMs are you...

    Re: Best Buy selling Ubuntu linux for $20

    I think the salespeople aren't trying to market it, really. It's just another item that Best Buy has in stock. The high ticket items (laptops/desktops/printers/anything Mac) are the ones that have...

  6. [ubuntu] Re: will upgrading to Hardy Heron mess up VBox?

    A-dogg,

    I usually just make a backup of the configuration file and the harddisk file for the virtual machine and stick it on another partition or on an external hard drive.

    This way if the VM...
  7. [ubuntu] Re: will upgrading to Hardy Heron mess up VBox?

    Nope, A-dogg, your VM should still work just the same as before. You will probably have to install a new set of the VirtualBox tools software inside of the virtual machine, though. This being said,...

    Do you have Cool'N'Quiet enabled or disabled in the BIOS? Also, are you overclocking at all? IIRC, if C'n'Q is disabled and/or you're overlocking (which means C'n'Q has to be disabled), you can't do...

    That setup is similar to what I'm running (Phenom 9600 BE, 8GB DDR2-800 RAM, 256MB 7900GS but has been an 8600 GT), and I can tell you that IT IS overkill. The great thing about it is, though, that I...

    I have similar problems on some of my Ubuntu systems. Basically (with/without smooth scrolling), scrolling is delayed and 'klunky', meaning it is not any sort of smooth and lags horribly.

  25. Re: Pidgin 2.2.2 Released, will we see it in Gutsy Repositories?

    I'd imagine that they'll include Pidgin 2.2.x, but not anything from 2.y.x where y > 2. It's kind of like Firefox's update from 2.0.0.6 to 2.0.0.8 being pushed down, or Gnome 2.20.1 in Feisty.
