You can choose to run it live from the disc, but I suggest installing it. The thing is, Ubuntu is very user friendly. I pretty much just popped the disc in, partitioned, and installed with no problems. I installed it on a dell laptop and everything except my wireless card worked immediately, and that solution was quickly found through a Google search. [Link] |

Lots - LOTS! - of info. You can download here too. There are ubuntu specific forums too. This is a good site. If you want to play around, before actually installing, try a Live CD. www.frozentech.com/content/livecd.php www.livecdnews.com/ By the way, having a working Live CD, and being able to use even just the basics on it, is a great tool to have - for the day your computer won't boot from its hard drive. http://distrowatch.com Tons of info. www.linux.org/lessons Nice reading, especially for beginners. Three levels of online lessons. Start with the beginner's and proceed. [Link] |

| linuxpervert New Member 5 Posts 6/07 | Posted - Jun 23 2007 : 5:57PM Also, I have the same problem with primetimeuncensored.com. I can watch the clips in flash 9, but the stream does not come up with mplayer. Anyone have any luck with VLC or are they using copy protection on Windows media 10 over at PTU? [Link] |
