I've had great luck in general with IBM (I guess now Lenovo) thinkpads.
They're a bit spendier but. Also have a 3 button mouse. Pretty much
everything "just works", though I have looked typically to make sure I'm
getting the "right" wifi card, etc.

Obviously, it needs to be the right /dev path. And this assumes that the
filesystems are always the same. (you have to replace with
ext4/vfat/ntfs/whatever)

It installed fine and sort of "just worked", but...
When I ask it to download programmes, though, it just doesn't do anything.
Both fresh installs of 10.04. iplayer streaming works perfectly (after
doing some fiddle with the flash propert
fault choice--
which is what we already know.
All that being said, however, OOO is a fantastic product, especially at
the price. If you're using Alfresco, for instance, it Just Makes Sense.
Ditto Sharepoint and MSO.
Anyway. My 2p, as a pretty heavy technical and nontechnical user of
deck and iplayer-- though my iplayer often hangs when
downloading.

it is), rather than /home/norman/*, as if you do the latter, you'll miss
all the hidden directories and files (Which includes .config, .ssh, and
loads of stuff you'll want.

Hi Jacob,
I apologise for not realising this sooner-- Matt's pointed out that the

I think if you get a linux install from, say, pendrivelinux, and then
use the f12 as suggested by Tommy, you'll be able to reinstall over your
Windows 7, which is what you suggested you wanted to do.

I think you'll have at least a bit of trouble doing this with
current-ish kit, the big killer will be the "silent" requirement.
I suspect, though, that putting together osmething like one of those
Shuttle mini things with an Atom or C3 processor will do what you need.
Alternatively, a netbook

The other thing you could do rather than stopping mysqld completely is
do to a LOCK TABLES then
FLUSH TABLES, which avoids you having to stop the server, suspend
transactions, and run crontabs as root. (obviously, you'll need to
UNLOCK TABLES again afterwards)
This could all be in the backup

Go with EXT4. Faster, better journalling, etc. Of course, you will pay,
but unless you have *very* specific requirements, go with what works.
