It seems to me that in both cases the program has to think too hard what to do?? Any thoughts please.

Re: Monitor problem
It is not the programme - the ATI Radeon 9250 is a slow coach.

Re: Wireless USB Adaptor

Anyhow, has anyone had any success with Wireless USB adaptors under Ubuntu? At home my wireless router is a D-Link DSL-G604T capable of both 802.11b and 802.11g. I'm not sure of what wireless technology is in use at Uni (Uni of QLD and ANU) though. I'd need an adaptor capable of connecting to both networks. I'm currently using LAN at home but I'll need some way of accessing the wireless at Uni after the holidays. If this helps at all, I have a netgear wg111 ( http://www.netgear.com/Products/Adapters/GWirelessAdapters/WG111.aspx) usb wireless adaptor which works out of the box on my desktop (plug it in and 20 seconds later it's all set up). However, there may be some other versions of this (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/NetgearWG111) so that may be something to consider.

Remote SSH
Can someone please help with the syntax to remotely SSH to my Ubuntu file server. I've opened the server's I.P address and port 22 in the router and verified that this has occurred with Shields Up (it reported the server's host-name and that port 22 is open). I'm just unsure of how to SSH from a remote location. The syntax I've attempted is: ssh 124.171.***.*** (which is my public I.P address provided by my ISP) and ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] Both return the following error: ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host I can SSH over the local network with no problems.

Re: Linux Servers for Infrastructure
I'm trying to PXE boot a thin client that has a Vortex86SX processor (no math co processor or fpu) Error message: This kernel requires the following features not present on the CPU: 0:0 Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU. any insights into the error code 0:0? I'm guessing it has to do with math emulation and fpu emulation being required in the PXE image. Been looking for instructions on how to build a bootable image for PXE (onto an LTSP server) where I can enable both emulations but nothing simple enough for me to understand thus far. Any help appreciated. You can just use cron-apt and your own apt-repo to deploy applications and manage updates, like Microsofts SMS but better. Using PXE and a customised image you could network boot and install all the machines as well, same as MS's RIS or WDS. -- ubuntu-au mailing list ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au
Re: Remote SSH
I access my server remotely with this: ssh -p 2232 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Where 2232 is the port number that is then forwarded to 22. g.
