I'd also like to hear more about the Zareason. I'd be ordering from Australia but I really like the look of them - great colour - and would like to support a Linux-centric company.
So 'bump' .......

Recently a friend of mine (WHO HAS AN IT CERTIFICATE) couldn't connect to her wireless internet, and another found that they had to turn off their router and turn it on at 'just the right moment' in...
one word : PROGEX - this thing installed with every box and dice known to man. It was a fast, easy install and once I'd figured out how to reset the themes so the windows would behave normally, it...
It is NOT, I repeat NOT a problem withe dirty fans they are CLEAN. (I swear I'll SCREAM next time I see a fix telling me to clean the darn fans!)
CPU scaling doesn't seem to be the problem either,...
what computer do you have, Nick?
It seems there's issues with the AMD Powernow! Technology and Linux. This page refers to Red Hat and Suse but I figure they're likely the same with Ubuntu.

I'm having trouble with my HP Compaq nx6125 overheating on any Ubuntu based distro. Hardy, Mint and Progex are all cooking it. No, I can't tell you the exact temp as I haven't managed to get a...
I've googled it endlessly, and find three equally useless answers.
1) a lengthy article laying out the pros and cons (supposedly) of each, which mostly makes them sound about the same and doesn't...
so do I just add the text exactly as you've written? At the top or the bottom of the file?
I just tried adding some lines to X11.conf (think that was it...) for a different overheating fix (video...
Actually, yeah. I'm totally hearin' ya, beer goggles and all.
I still get a little buzz of happiness every time I hear Mint's pleasant welcome chime. My desktop is beautiful. I'd found Mint,...
Linux won't be killed because the developers don't get anything out of it. They aren't doing it for the money. It makes no difference to them if 50 or 500 or 500000 people use their distro. Except...
Maybe some sort of record for longest-running thread ever.
I'm listening to Deep Forest - World Mix.
Extracted into Rhythmbox, but at 81 meg, I fear I'll fill the hard drive up rather quickly!
AAAAHHHHH!!! AAAAAAAHHHH!! AAAAAHHHHH!
nooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!
you... did.... READ this thread ... didn't you....

must get this. Haven't read it yet; I was on a Dawkins binge a little while ago.
I can't listen to audiobooks while I work - good for driving or housekeeping, but not for thinking...
oh I love that song. So haunting.
Right now I'm just listening to my old hard drive crunching away and the fans kicking in.
Might be time for something a little lighter. Yo Yo Ma is called for,...
that looks pretty much the same as the information on mine.
Well I'm mystified. Maybe it was just the fact that it was the package manager trying to access it? I'll experiment with other file...
Rammstein, Sehnsucht
Insanely brilliant.
You may have a problem. My sister got a new iPod for Christmas and her computer-tech husband spent most of an evening trying to find ways to get the music from the ipod onto a computer with no...
Looks nice and well integrated. Not sure if it might be a bit TOO fancy schmancy for my rather aging hardware.

Totem works just fine, but I haven't...
ah, ok. Well I don't know what I'm doing.. but hey, gotta learn somehow.
I did have the same username, always do... so not sure what gives there. In the first properties tab it says msdos...
I'd saved some packages on a USB stick in Ubuntu, and just now tried to open them in Mint. I couldn't open them and couldn't change permissions, and the instructions I didn't make much sense to me....
Just to lower the tone a little,
here's a really nice place to start for -utter- noobs. A nice, easy, clear introduction to the very first basics. (Found by googling "write a simple python...
Ah, thanks. I'll check that. I'm running Mint today, it is a little different. (though very similar).
I guess the degree of control I've got over software with Linux is pretty good - I probably...
Wow, so you were what, 9 years old when you first switched ;)
Sigh... you know you're getting old when your kids' headmaster looks like he should still be in highschool.
Daft question time.
since I've downloaded an awful lot of software, updates, distros and patches this month, I'm trying to minimize any extra download activity.
Ubuntu (in both 8.04 and 8.10)...
