There is another company that going down the same road as Microsoft and that
Apple they have started doing the same thing. Being secretive and in some

I thought Ubuntu gave you an manual option to setup the hard drive

I've a hard disk that consist of two partitions, that known as c and d, and I
want to install a Ubuntu in one of the existing partition while not erasing the

Hi folks,
A client of mine (a radio station) has got a PC attached to a plasma TV
which goes through a collection of pictures of events that they have
been to. At the moment they are using the basic pictures screensaver

I would like to add something to this, although not entirely relevant to
Rowan's case, but it reminds me of a lot of people thinking when it comes to

I wiped my tiny remaining Windows partition last night to replace it with
the beta of Windows 7 (it's only taken me a month to get around to having a

This is a long shot but I thought I'd ask anyway. I'm trying to
