| slavik | Seveas: then what is freenx? | 12:41 |
| ompaul | ashyg, if you can do a build while it is up before that third boot try DSL if you can't download a full distro - or recovery is possible - but I would try the ext3 reader from inside windows first | 12:41 |
| Seveas | slavik, no, they don;t exist for 64bit | 12:41 |
| MrRio | the linux bootup procedure should really load up necessary things first (from a user perspective). gfx drivers, mouse, sound, then do all the rest while its sitting there with a pretty login screen, so, your wireless drivers, mounting other drives, networking, etc... | 12:41 |
| Seveas | slavik, freenx is a VNC replacement | 12:41 |
| BrickMaker | how can i make my "Application ,Places, System" top panel like Kde? | 12:41 |
| MrRio | i could be talking rubbish, since i have limited knowledge | 12:41 |
| frazmanw | none of the newer epson printers are listed on linuxprinting or in ubuntu. but have similar #'s will they work on same drivers, or not work at all yet. ex. CX4200, or CX5400 (cx5200 is fully supported but 5400 not listed) | 12:42 |
| mwe | slavik: IMHO u64 is not quite ready for the desktop yet | 12:42 |
| Seveas | MrRio, this is exactly what is planned for dapper+1 | 12:42 |
