I am very excited about this. For what I've read, Google and Canonical
are trying to make sure it will work flawlessly on specific netbook
models. It's a similar model to the Android way of working the details
for every specific smartphone model. I've seen some criticisms around
Android for non bei
Hi all,
A bit of an off-topic but still,
Does anybody know if there are any Linux mobile phones available by the main
carriers in the UK?
I guess one can always buy the phone from abroad and put a UK sim card here
but, I am
interested to know if any Linux mobile phone can be bought directly here
Hi,
Has anyone upgraded the RAM and SD of an Asus Eee?
Is it worth buying the low-spec one and upgrading RAM and SD oneself?
Any preferred SD brand in particular?
Cheers,
Albert.

I also discovered FON a while ago, and got 20 invitations as well.
Somehow, maybe because I subscribed early to FON, I got a Linksys WRT54GL
for free, followed
by a Fonera last year, an antenna, and three more Foneras for free this
year, which is great.
So, lots of tinkering opportunities at home

I am musing on the possibility to try to install them on my Edgy laptop:

has anyone tried them on edgy? edgy does have Xorg 7.1, right?

Hi all,
I have one of those USB male/male cables, to connect two computers
directly via usb.
I've been trying to bring up a usb0 interface in both computers, one
with dapper, the other with edgy, to no avail.
Has anyone succeeded in this?
I edited my /etc/network/interfaces to include:

Hi,
I am in the market for a fast external hard drive that I could
potentially use to have more than one Linux distro/version on my
laptop.
Has anyone had good experiences with firewire devices?
My idea would be to put the most essential IO-intensive parts of the
OS in the internal hard-drive, a
Is there any chance I can find a detailed doc somewhere on how to do that?
I don't really know that much about X servers :p

Hi all,
I am trying to get antialiasing working on my laptop for an emacs GUI
generated from an ssh X session on a computer at work.
Does anybody know if it is possible to have such thing workng? Can
antialiasing be achieved for programs running on other computers,
where no antialiased font serve

/etc/acpi/sleep.sh
And newer kernels have a rtc-acpi module that does the same instead.
I haven't found out any way to elegantly hook up Rhythmbox to the wake
up process though. Any ideas?
Cheers,
Albert.

Hi,
Another thing that I've been investigating without much success.
I am trying to set up the laptop to wake up from suspend, so that I
can use it as an alarm clock and trigger Rhythmbox to play a song.
Does anybody know how to do that?
There used to be an "apmsleep" package for Linux that woul
ok, so how could I start it up at the home page even if I haven't

Hi all,
Does anybody know of any good program to manage podcasts?
I am basically looking at a program with a couple of main features:

I managed to install it on my old laptop. It runs mostly fine,

It is certainly good marketing :)

Instead of using the network configuration GUI, I find myself a lot of
times doing this on a terminal:
iwlist eth1 scan
sudo iwconfig eth1 essid "myessid"
sudo dhclient eth1
