A three year old thread? That's absurd!

I started the thread?! Even more impossible!

Nice to see a LOT of new wallpapers since my last visit. Hopefully I don't get sidetracked and can UP some...

Hey guys, I've been out of the Linux loop for a little while, but a customer of mine wants a "No Virus) desktop environment, I have gone through the process of installing and configuring Ubuntu 10.10...

I hope you understand that EVERY os will invariably have jerks who use the distro.

How can you label every Arch user like that when I'm positive some if not the majority give back to the forum in...

No, I know what you mean, and I realize how my post must have been read. That's not exactly what I mean.

Don't give people an option, people think they want choices, and SOME of them do. Most of...

I know this might sound stupid, but why can't they link to an off site forum like the one listed earlier in this thread, that wouldn't add any strain to the database....

I'm glad that that is your opinion. It might not mesh well with the thoughts of others involved in this thread, but I do feel that the Other OS forum had a wealth of information.

I think that the...

No, but you can fake it with tutorials found through google.

OP, DeVeDe will allow you to do this, but it will convert it to .iso for burning.




Yes, you can do it with the following;

1. create a document.

2. Edit it (basically) as follows.

Oh wow, I was just about to run you through how to switch it to do that under gnome... But you don't have gnome yet...

You can edit your


/etc/apt/sources.list

and comment (#) out all of...

I mount all of my drives in /mnt. I just like it better that way. I don't think there really is a 'proper' way to do it.

Do it how you like it.

1. This installs most of the Ubuntu goodies. I don't know how much will be skipped by having Server pre-installed....


sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop

After install, goto System >...

I must agree with Funny Guy (aka Sand & Mercury), that's fricken awesome!

Hey all, I just switched from 8.04 to 8.10, updated and upgraded, and then tried to


sudo apt-get install emerald-themes

and got


Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree

If that fit my color scheme in any way, I would use it. It's just my opinion, but if the wood looked a little more like a cartoon, it would be Perfect!

So I installed Cairo-Dock, because it's what I am used to. Well, what I was used to I guess. Now I can't get it to do the 3D look, the only themes it lists are _default_ and I don't know what I am...

True...

TPBM hates being distracted.

My problem was that I had my hard drive and cdrom on the same IDE cable and both of them set to cable select.

This wasn't a problem in Hardy, but Intrepid didn't like it.

After switching the...

False, I met a girl at the mall dressed as the Christmas spirit.... Enough said.

TPBM will be offended I insinuated sexual contact with the Christmas spirit.

False,

TPBM can't believe dannytatom doesn't wish he had my face....

(And I don't mean in a jar all Hannible Lecter style...)

We were lied to again!

*Looks for the OP*

1000th post my bottom!

Being subjugated to the propaganda propagated toward the vast majority of the masses, the systematic symptoms of such a system would point in the projected direction of the intended destination. But...

TPBM hates my face...
