Hi Topdog you should take a look here: ubuntuforums.org

I can't answer the hardware questions because I don't have the hardware you're naming.

Firefox is the standard web-browser in Ubuntu as default and it's working perfect.

The thunderbird you've get through package manager, Gimp 2 is installed as default, also open office.

K3b you can get through, package manager if you inable the universe repertoire (sp?).

Also check Ubuntu unofficial starter guide: here

Thanks :), I'll try them out.

Heres my screenie. Take a looksee at the gdesklets at the top of the screen, the left one is a window list, the one on the right has time, battery, volume and a window menu, the one underneath it, a notification area/system tray. You can click the tab on the end of them and they hide away, with the tab becoming transparent. Theres a hidden one in the bottom right.

How or where did you get that? :o

Did I miss an option or Gdesklet theme? :unsure:

Germ, the link you gave my browser said the website don't exist. (or it could be that the server is down)

Yep, try uninstall them and install them from the new urmpi place.

If the urmpi is locked try a reboot.

About the urmpi error try to find some alternative urmpi links. It could be that the urmpi file you wanna use is corrupted. It's just a guess :/

Yep, but I'm using Gnome ;) and I just bought a brand new keyboard with thousands of shortcuts buttons, so I stumble upon this site with a google search :)

This is a must to those who got Keyboard with alot of shortcut buttons which aren't supported in Linux:

:D No problem! :)

Setup a bittorrent. I usually use it for very huge downloads.

In my case Ubuntu runs alot faster than Mandrake.

I'm testing Yoper at the moment, but my main distro is Ubuntu. Before that it was Mandrake.

Well, I'm running this at 60Hz and there is no other refreshrate available. Everything is otherwise just great: fonts etc render perfectly and the display is crisp and clear. I'll try to run the configuration agan, but I got to figure out the correct refreshartes first. HP/Compac is not giving very much infromation, though... 

 

Thanks for the hints!

If you know the specs for your monitor, you can editing the XF86Config-4 file [/etc/X11/XF86Config-4]. I did that because I didi have the same problem. But be carefull so you don't blow up your monitor ;)

ummm...seems the easy urmpi (the web site) is down at the moment.

You press the edit button and write [sOLVED] in the headline(s).

Check this one and see if it helps: http://mandrakeusers.org/index.php?showtopic=4455

if anyone's gonna break anything, it's always me

uh... i would not brag so much about it. i believe you are not such an expert at breaking machines as my girlfriends dad (68 years old and a computer maniac). he managed to break both winxp and mandrakelinux five times in four weeks, leaving the task of repairing his box on me.

Aaaah, the noble but non-dieing art of OS-smashing! It's and honoured and glorious sports deciplin reaching many decades back in time.

And I'm one of the pupils!

Thanks for the reply :)

Okay...I'm downloading v. 2.1.0-4, I'll then avoid Reiser4(though it was one of the reason to try Yoper), Keep only to KDE and .rpms downloading files...got it!

If I find Yoper great, I'll happy put some money in for the new server :)

Hello

After using Mandrake then Ubuntu I decided perhaps give Yoper a chance.

I have been looking into their homepage to get a feeling what's about. So far so promising, Yoper got only i686 tree which suit me perfectly and KDE 3.3 which is also good.

What I really want is to hear for those guys (or girls) who tried Yoper, what's good and what's bad about Yoper, so I get a picture of it before messing around with it.

Cheers
