If it were me i'd just look for a laptop that i like. 98% of things
can be fixed IMO with some terminal fun :)

Whats your budget?

 Looked at a couple of companies which will sell machines without any op 
 system.
 Pcspecialists: apparently there's a problem that the touchhpad doesn't work 
 with
 ubuntu
 Novatech: don't know if their hardware is compatible with ubuntu or not

 Looked round PC World a few machines there look reasonable spec/price but 
 don't
 appear on the Ubuntu-certified hardware list.

 What do other people do? Any advice?

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Problems with CR2 files from a Canon 60D

2010-12-18 Thread Kingsid3 .
Sorry no such camera as the EOS 100D ! There is a 1000D though!

I guess as the 60D just came out the raw file's are going to be
different! I've never had a problem with fspot with the RAW files from
my 1D Mark 1 and my 300D

 Hi all,

 My recently demised pc had this http://bit.ly/hQ5BT7 motherboard. Can
 someone recommend something similiar upto £30?


 Slightly over budget but maybe this?

 http://tinyurl.com/33f9gzj

 Comes out at about £32 plus about £6 for delivery (unless you happen to
 live in Manchester I believe which means you might be able to pick one
 up from their store).

 Looks like it supports DDR2 and DDR3 memory which is handy, means you
 can upgrade to DDR3 memory if your CPU supports it (the newer AM3 CPUs
 will, so Phenom II, Athlon II).

 I was a bit surprised really to see that standard AM2+ boards (DDR2
 only) are getting hard to come by now.

 Rob

 Haha Rob, that's the one I linked ages ago. It's quite a good board isn't it?
