The computer I use was too slow to run regular 9.04 with gnome, so I employed Xubuntu, and installed experimental packages from mozmck. Can these package be updated if I add the official EMC repository to apt ? The "clone disk" option is a very good advice. For now I've only a backup of my home dir. I'll look into it. Better than a long explanation about what I do all the day, there is a short video I took yesterday of the first step of the assembly of our solar panels : http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xk64f8_collage-d-un-module-etape-1_tech Here, I glue the laminated solar module into our specials mounting frames. Now, I'm doing the second part of the operation : soldering the electrical terminals, and filling gap between the laminate and the frame with the glue. And adding the part on the bottom of the panel that allow them to assemble themselves like tiles on a roof. I'll take a video of that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Got Input? Slashdot Needs You. Take our quick survey online.
