creencasts, a good graphics card is not a requirement. The
capturing of the frames is mostly a CPU task.
Therefore, you can get away with an entry level graphics card from
AMD/ATI or NVidia, especially if your budget is around £30-40.

not get anymore a 'Shutdown' menu option under the System menu,
since the Indicator Applet has the Shutdown functionality.
Which version of Ubuntu do you use? There is a difference in the
shutdown button between 10.04
and previous versions.

To verify whether a random 'libflashplayer.so' is 32 or 64 bit, run
ldd /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
If it is 64-bit, it should show /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
If it is 32-bit, it should show many references to 'lib32'.

You can post these changes to the list.

The device came with a special version of Ubuntu Linux 8.04, and the

Since you are doing a big investm
sound, could you please get
http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh and run the script?
The script produces detailed info for the audio card.
Then, this info can be used to resolve the audio problems.

I cannot think of any technical advantages.
It mentions a Core Duo CPU (instead of Atom), which means it's rather heavy duty
instead of an eco friendly computer.
The market they are looking into is those who want to revive their old
C64 memories.

ree ebook you can download. Might help you.
This book is also available in the Ubuntu repositories, as package
"diveintopython".
Once you install it, open with Firefox the page

and start reading.
The examples are found in /usr/share/doc/di

Mainly on Ubuntu, the big issue is to make the integration of
Pulseaudio as good as possible.
VirtualBox, Skype and others do not work well out of the box.

A google search for 'RTL8111/8168B Intrepid' reveals the following bug report

I think not. 'apt-cache show' on the flash plugin shows that it

You can want to install the 64-bit version manuall
ou use to create the bootable USB disk.
If you do manually, it may or may not work.
In Ubuntu 8.04, you can install the 'liveusb' package (search
Add/Remove...), which adds a tool at System/Administration/Install
Live USB
It requires to have an Ubuntu 8.04 installation CD in the drive.
