Great for things like: What graphics card should I buy right this moment? or Why r my power supply turning sparkly colors?
Anyway, my question:
Photoshop seems to not let me type in lower case anymore, anyone else ever run into this problem?

deprecating /usr as a standalone filesystem?
— I have been told by upstream maintainers of one of my packages and by
prominent developers of other distributions that supporting a standalone
/usr is too much work and no other distribution worth mentioning does it
(not Ubuntu, not Fedora, not SuSE).
I know that Debian supports this, but I also know that maintaning
forever large changes to packages for no real gain sucks.
So, does anybody still see reasons to continue supporting a standalone
/usr?
If you do, please provide a detailed real-wor...

<quote27 May, 2009
At today's ASUS product showcase in Sydney, a bunch of media representatives
where given a taste of the company's latest and greatest notebooks,
including the new range of Eee PC netbooks.
The entire range was there, from ultra-portable, touch screen netbooks to
high-end, quad core Lamborghinis (I'm not joking). Even Windows Vista was
there.
There was only one thing missing - Linux.
At the e...

According to WKOW TV, Abbie Schubert recently ordered a Dell laptop,
expecting "your classic bread-and-butter computer." But when she unboxed the
$1,100 machine that arrived, she didn't find bread and butter. She found

A suggestion

I have been using debian for the last 2 years. ( i was unaware of linux b4
that)
I installed debian etch in many machines with varying configurations. Most
of the time I was only able to install the base system with no sound, poor
resolution, no video etc. This was especially in laptops.
Recently I tried Ubuntu. Surprisingly to me, after installation the sound
card, video card etc are detected automatically.
And more.. th...

partitions after boot and made them availab...

XP HOME on a Acer Aspire One, you *must* be joking !!!!
— On Thu, 25 Dec 2008 23:53:41 -0600, Terry Porter <linux-2@netspace .net.au
I took the day off today and went for a wander around the Superstores at
Tweed Heads(Australia).
Whilst in JB-Hifi I came across a Acer Aspire One, with XP HOME on the
display stands.
This unit was off, so I hit the PWR button to see how long it took to
actually boot into a usable login.
After three minutes, and at least two 'please wait while windows ... does
something or other' I got tired of waiting and lef...
