If you know the answers, why are you asking the questions? Or is it that
I am not able to understand your question.

No speed difference.
If you are sure about the hardware detection, go for direct install.

But since you have so little RAM, I would suggest that you go for
installation using Alternate CD which is text-based install CD.

I think your write speed is fast. :P

You asked about booting and *working* in both options. Hence my answer.

As for the answer to your real question, even if I know Ubuntu well
enough to directly install it without trying, I would go for LiveCD
option just to make sure that all (most) of the hardware is detected.

your read speed is fast.

I am asking about going to live mode and then installing system
vs
directly selecting second option

Read speeds of CD drive is obviously slower than that of HDD. Everytime
you want to load a program, reading instructions from HDD (ie. installed
mode) will be faster than CD drive.

[ubuntu-in] Ubuntu Install vs Live

2010-10-06 Thread Narendra Sisodiya
When Live CD boots, it give two option, live and directly install

What exactly is the difference of speed in booting and working in both
options.
My concern is about RAM.
If we have RAM = 125 MB then what is the speed in both option.
IMO - live CD load rootfs on RAM but Install media might not be doing so.

[ubuntu-in] OT - good news for open source browser fans

2010-10-06 Thread Ramnarayan.K
IE goes down

see article below

Internet Explorer loses the browser battle
http://www.hindustantimes.com/Internet-Explorer-loses-the-browser-battle/H1-Article1-609081.aspx

Internet Explorer which was holding the majority market share till
August 2010, has now hit the minority mark. Browsers like Firefox,
Google Chrome are eating into the browser's share, reports Mashable.

StatCounter shows IE at 51.34 per cent of the market in August 2010;
by the end of September, IE was holding on to just 49.87 per cent of
the browser market. The browser also shows a drop of nearly 10 per
cent year over year.

It is the for the first time that Internet Explore has fallen below
the 50 per cent mark. And if the scenario remains the same, it might
sink further.

The steady growth of Firefox and Chrome over the years has weakened
the position of Internet Explorer significantly.

While September saw IE touching its lowest mark, Firefox has recorded
half a percent growth (31.5 per cent), while Chrome added almost a
full percentage point to its share of the market.

Current market break-up (Courtesy: Mashable)
Internet Explorer: 49.87%
Firefox: 31.5%
Google Chrome: 11.54%

Look at the EXTRA_GROUPS setting in the adduser configuration file:
/etc/adduser.conf . You can put the admin group in this setting, and
all new users should then have sudo access by virtue of being in the
admin group.
