The idea would be to scan in my handwritten notes, but that would also

It might be worthwhile to do it during the global jam then, instead of on a

The problem may be because the 5Ghz band is reserved for wireless N
devices - is your machine running a wireless-N compatible card, with
correct wireless-N compatible drivers?
If you can only connect on the 2.4Ghz band, this suggests that you are
running a wireless-a/b/g card.

Your $USER folder IS /Rowan - $USER is a term for 'your username here'.

open up /home/Rowan and press ctrl + H, I think, to show all hidden

hit enter' rather than try remember how to do everything on Windows.

When I first switched to Ubuntu around 18 months ago, I thought it was so
much easier to use that Windows. From using Windows from 6 years old (back
on Win95) until I was 16, then switching to Ubuntu, I was incredibly
impressed with how easy it was to use everything, considering all I had to
go was
Was just on my computer running Ibex, when gnome vanished, and the
keyboard lights started blinking. After a reboot, Linux tried to load
and said Kernel Panic, and now when it boots the machine resets after
loading grub.
Help?
Cheers, Simon

Hey all!
I've been thinking about what I'm going to do network-wise when I get home
from university, since I was the only one still using a wired connection in
the house, when I left they got a BT homehub so the house is now fully
wireless. This is a problem for me - I used to have a phone line in
rsion for now,
to save me reinstalling Ubuntu when I get my new RAM.
Cheers for the help =)

Stability is more important for me. The machine currently has only 512mb of
RAM (stolen from my desktop) but I'm headed to the shop tomorrow to pick up
1Gb or 2Gb of RAM.

I went down to MicroDirect earlier today, and bought myself a shiny new
Intel Quad Core Q6600, clocking at 2.4Ghz per core. I was so happy to be
finally replacing my 2.6Ghz Celeron (single core), which struggles to even
do 2+2 it seems. I got back into my flat, and replaced the CPU, only to find
