| Well, except for my guest 2.6Gig laptop that is 'stress testing', I am now only running 2 winXP compuers. The rest are Linux. I am a Linux noob, and how I got them running, I do not know, I used the mouse and installed it. I just made a folder for it in my home folder, and clicked untill it worked. But they fold, so all is good. E | ||

| Well I'm happy to report that I am officially on the Linux bandwagon as well! Just installed Ubuntu 6.1 on an old desktop rig today, and I'm very pleased with the results. I mainly decided to go Linux just for learning purposes... I'll be taking an Operating Systems class next semester and I decided I'd brush up on some Linux... plus my Telecommunications class is messing with Fedora core, so it's a lot of fun. It'll take some getting used to, but I think it's worth it. | ||

| Well, i'd say that the one XP box i still run, is only for games, i have dual boot on my other PC's just fro benching but daily F@H and web browsing is all linux. (this box has my games on it, and my mother needs it for her linux-illiterate self) | ||

Wireless can be tough! I do not know how I did it, but I got an Intell pro 2100 wireless running on my laptop with Fedora. Still don't know how I did it, and the hard drive died, so that one is on WinXP now. But don't give up on it, if I did it in Linux, anyone can. Just wish I knew how I did it... Lots of determination and beer... lots of beer. The next day, I had wireless. E | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

Lol beer so that is y you can remember ![]() Well i got it working once with Kubuntu and it was a pain in the @ss.. I found a guide online to make it work with my card but it think it requires that you install first and I kinda want to make sure everything works before I install....O well I might put a network drop in my room soon so that would fix it also ADD...looks like Mandriva 2007.1 now has 3d desktop goodies built in also: Releases/Mandriva/2007.1/Tour - Mandriva Community Wiki ![]() | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
