Re: New eeePC 1000 and having hell already.
Note: if your unit has an atom instead of the celeron, get that version of the install cd. I know that ubuntu has one but it is hidden with the powerpc and etc installs. you can use the web search engine to find it. Fedora also has a network install. I was aware of everything you said, except the a...

Re: TiVo, Satellite and MythTV
FWIW, I am on DISH and quite happy with the SD dual reciever box that they gave me. I can record off of 2 channels simultaneously, and the UI is pretty straightforward and pleasant. The only thing that irritates me is that I can yoink the recordings off. I wonder why they wont let me do that ? **cou...

Re: New eeePC 1000 and having hell already.
There are several versions of linux optimized for the eee and depending on what processor you have there are additional variants. I grew up on Rh but tend to use debian for lower end machines. Before the eee is name the culprit, I would do a bit more research. I run debian on 166mhz p1 machines wit...

New eeePC 1000 and having hell already.
I bought the linux 40GB ssd one to credit linux. But of course I want to expand on what it can do, so I whipped out my trusty Fedora 10 disc and installed that on it. This is where it all begins. Its slow. Really slow. Anything seems latent, but although I initially thought it was the disk, I got a ...

I have both my macs running 10.5, and am happy. The second best upgrade I have done in as far back as I can remember (Fedora 7, and RHL 7.3 were 1 and 3). Many nags I had with OSX were resolved. The only thing I havent figured out yet (moreso a time limitation), was howto tweak those stacks around a...

I listened to this one a few weeks ago. Your summary was pretty good. A few of the bozos dont get software at all. They just want functional software and for some reason will pay anything for it. Oh well, at least Leo gets it and got his due time to tell it the way it is. Alex Lindsay generally is p...
