Re: [ubuntu-uk] Fw: Ubuntu and btinternet.com
I can tell you for certain that the BT CD is just a mini-browser that connects to 192.168.1.1:8080 I know this as I tried to configure the router without using the CD, then had to follow some instructions on forwarding a port on it, and the screenshots were identical oh and some bloat-ware, they always put a bit of that on CDs Jacob Mansfield Programmer CyberKing Solutions™ www.cyberkingsolutions.co.uk - I do know the database is down Air conditioned environment - do not open windows!

VMWare Fusion will provide slightly more. Here I have one partition running with 4 cores, out of the 8 on the MacPro, though it says I can use up to 8. Further I can use up to 5.5 GBytes before, they say, 'if higher, memory swapping may occur'. -- Tim Powys-Lybbe t...@powys.org for a miscellany of bygones: http://powys.org/ -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
