I've moved back to the darkside. I am back in the Windows terrain and strangely its not such a bad place after all. I've got a polished Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 installation with Windows Media Center working wonders with my Hauppauge TV card, heck the remote control worked without any...

Ubuntu's Intrepid Ibex was released the other day and I thought I'd spend a couple of minutes to give my opinion on this release... I'll start off by saying that I have no intention of upgrading to this release. I want to make it clear that is no fault of the Ubuntu developers. It's simply the...

I am running out of disk space on my root partition! I've only got 2.5GB left (from 10GB). I've already removed any unnecessary packages. How else can I free space from the root drive? Are there any log files I can purge? Can I defragment the ext3 partition? Can I use any compression tools...

Just over a year ago I purchased an Hiper PSU for under £30. Pretty cheap for a PSU I must say, but I expected it to last longer than it has. A couple of days ago, the Hiper PSU started making squealing noises, at least, I am 90% sure its the PSU. Yesterday my PC didn't switch on. I had to use...

I recently upgraded my appalling Creative i-trigue 2.1 speakers which I paid £80 for a couple of years ago, with spanking new Roth Audioblob2 2.1 speakers. I am getting a much better sound now, but am wondering whether I could improve sound quality further? The VIA VT8233 sound chip on my...

Hey Sniper How do I edit my computer now? Cheers

Hey I can't believe how much pain this is causing me! I am trying to authenticate CentOS 5.2 to my Windows Server 2003 SP2 Active Directory domain. I've been editing the smb.conf and krb5.conf files for so long that my fingertips are starting to bleed! I've managed to join CentOS to the...

Hey guys, I am trying to add a static route (not persistant) using Ubuntu. I am connecting to another network via PPTP that uses the same IP address range as my network. When I connect to a computer that is located on the other network, I need the traffic to go through the VPN gateway...

For the first time in over 2 years, I have installed Windows on my main computer. I don't mean within a Virtual Machine, but on a physical disk, in a dual boot scenario with Ubuntu 8.04 RC. My biggest beef has got to be performance issues and system requirements. I don't claim to have the...
