Hi,
Does anyone know of a shadowing utility, such that I can see what
someone else is doing on their X session? It's so I can help an
inexperienced user over a network, but actually follow exactly what
they are doing on the screen.

Hi,
I'd like to thank our Surrey hosts for arranging yesterday's joint meeting and
all the speakers.
There were plenty of presentations and I think it was a very productive
meeting. There is something to be said for a meeting without Internet
connectivity!
Hope everyone is enjoying the mild

I was with a friend a couple of weeks ago when his Acer laptop went in
the same way. As Vic and Paul advise, we checked with an external

Hi.
A friend has a Novatech PC running Windows XP. It has only 256MB of RAM which
is shared between the main RAM and the graphics sub-system. It's a wee bit
sluggish and while I'd love to swap Windows to Linux on his machine I think
that would be a too much of a culture shock for him - he is ov
Hi,
Anybody have any recommendations for portable printers?
I'd like something that is as small as possible while still
capable of printing A4.
I'm not fussy about the print technology and I'm willing to sacrifice some
print quality to size, but it would be nice if it have a universal PSU

Vic's torch trick is well worth a try, as is connecting an external monitor.

drive light comes on and the cd drive is checked. However the BIOS screen never
appears and it never boots. The screen just remains blank. The cd drive is
still 'alive' and can still be ejected, and the drive is
