Obviously,
Even 5 years back laptops were rare, and costly. The drastic cutting
down of the price naturally explains the shoddy quality of the
hardware of most laptops.
Doesnt matter which brand you get, they are all exactly the same these days.

Ah, the whole 'Shipit' dilemma.
Firstly, i'd like to say that i am strongly against people misusing
shipit, and have tried very hard to discourage people from ordering
the cds.
With this in mind, i hope everyone bears with me for a moment :
As almost all college-fests go these days, 'Apogee' invo

So, does anyone here know if companies like Canonical, Red Hat etc.
will be willing to help us out by providing us with CD's and other
merchandise to give away? Whom do i contact for the same? Will
Ubuntu-marketing be able to help?
Thanks in advance.

Hi folks,
I managed to install Gutsy AMD64 on my acer aspire 5000 laptop. I
have 256 MB RAM, out of which 32 MB is reserved as graphics memory.
However, the kernel only 'detects' 150 MB main memory.(according to
'free'). My system naturally runs real sluggish due to this. Where did
the ~70 MB go?

Thanks for that info.
BTW, can anyone involved with staring this LUG shed some more light
on the topic? The steps required etc.

Hi folks,
We have decided to start an LUG in my campus (BITS-pilani) .
We have approximately 100 member as of now.
How do we 'register' ourselves as an LUG? Is there some process we
have to follow etc.? Also, what benefits would we have if we are an
LUG?
Any information in this regard would be high
