Ok, just worked out how to do the clean install of Ubuntu Netbook using
usb stick. had a few problems, but got it working now. Problem is, I
cant work out how to use it. Is there a guide for the Netbook version.
Thanks.

Most early netbooks ran linpus lite which obviously isn't Ubuntu.
If it's a Toshiba NB100 which came out at the same time as the Acer

I thought I'd ask this here as I'm more likely to get a variety of opinions!
Now Libreoffice has released the first stable version, (3.3) and Open
Office also has released 3.3, which flavour would people suggest I use

Cheers!

Hi there ... You probably know this already. I'm quite excited about
CloneZilla. I made an SD card with a live boot version, and it let me
make a bootable clone of my netbook really easily. Previously, I had a
restore partition made using Partimage. Nice, but not easy to use, and

For at least the medium-term future, LibreOffice and OOo are going to
use 100% compatible file formats, since they stick to the

another possibility is a usb wifi dongle?
The Linux Emporium also sell these stating that they work with 10.04. I bought
one (although not the same model as they sell now) a year or two back and it

ALOHA!
I've been thinking and pondering about meet ups over here, the majority
seems to be focused on conferences and while that is great and is needed I
miss the fun side of things!
So I'm possibly being a bit selfish here but I thought we could meet up in
early April and work on some Ubuntu
