Native Russellville guy here, however i am currently residing in Tx (bleh) but look forward to coming back home soon. i've got family that i visit in the Rogers area as well as "Russ-vegas" (as people call it)

been using Ubuntu 7.04 for a few months and love it, been playing around wit different distros over the years tho. i'm looking for an alternative to Vista MCE, LinuxMCE is way overkill for what i need and will not run properly on my desktop with an adaptec sata raid card and server based motherboard.

Just started using Ubuntu last week trying to change over from XP. So far it is going well until I upgraded from 7.04 to 7.10. Have lost Thunderbird and some other settings. I upgraded from CD since all the sites were so busy and slow. That may have been my mistake. Still looking. Any advice would be appreciated.

It SHOULD have worked, but since Thunderbird isn't AS supported as Evolution they may have missed something in that package. Since your installation is only a week old, if you don't mind losing everything I would suggest a clean install. (I haven't upgraded to Gutsy myself, but given the time it takes to do a typical upgrade, I moved all my working data to an external drive and plan to do a clean install when I'm ready, and a Feisty reinstallation if I have trouble.)

There are some major changes in things like network management and graphics acceleration/effects. It very likely was a fluke if you don't see it all over the forums but it could be related to your hardware.

Good luck!

P.S.: If you're near enough to Conway, stop by the CARLUG meeting tomorrow morning. Details at http://carlug.org/

Hi, y'all. I couldn't help but notice that there are quite a few Ozarkers on here that are Linux users! I currently live in St. Louis but grew up in the Ozarks, originally from Springfield, MO, and went to undergraduate school at (S)MSU and graduate school at Razorback U., and yes, I've also lived in Fayetteville and Rogers before, too. Good to see some Ozarks Linux users on here!

Everybody join the NWA-LUG fun! We are quite awesome. We have a google group and someone is getting the site up and running, even as we type.

Anyway, just thought I'd invite.

Hello everyone, Springdale here. We are in the process of changing over to ubuntu on several computers, with good luck so far. Just found out about the project about 2 weeks ago, during a discusion about our pvr.
