From TFA.. "On February 25, in the small town of Horsham in the United Kingdom, there will be a rare and potentially groundbreaking opportunity for the 9/11 truth movement" ..aaaand I stop reading Good luck with the thread and everything seeya

Have you got an ssd? Have a read of this.. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1070150 ..a couple of things to try in that bug report

What distro are you on?

NTFS support under linux will support large drives no problem. AFAIK you wont find a distro much faster than Raspbian, the gui will always be slow so its best to stick with the command line. You will probably find that the network performance makes it a bit slow for a NAS. I guess it...

Blame ATI.. Not linux

Pyropetepete - As above, you probably also want to take that backup of your favourites out of the 'stuff' area. Not sure what 'squirting mastery' is maybe you can enlighten us ;)

The open drivers are fine for desktop use and video playback - as long as you can live without any hardware video decode. The amd drivers are garbage so just stick with the open ones (installed by default in ubuntu).

I saw this yesterday too. Looks fine today though.

Allordered models delivered from now on will be 512mb's so its safe to order now

Sodium hydroxide, aka caustic soda. Very nasty

I had loads of problem getting my wireless dongle working so I used a dd-wrt flashable router and I use it in client mode. It connects to my wireless network and shares the wireless out over the ethernet port and is rock solid.

No worries - Ubuntu would be as good a choice as any for this sort of thing. It has good hardware support and tends to "just work". If you boot from a Ubuntu live cd or usb stick your hard disks should be there straight away. That will allow you to copy any files you need over to another...

I'm a tad confused. You've got 2 drives that are dodgy in windows and you want to restore the data from these onto 2 new drives that are not boot drives? What do you want to boot from? Do you think the 2 original drives are physically faulty?

I think thats nothing to do with the driver install. It just means that there was a previous problem with installing the flash plugin. Try.. sudo apt-get remove --purge flashplugin-installer sudo apt-get remove --purge flashplugin-nonfree sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install...

I'm not going to promise it will fix it but its the first thing I'd try.

sudo apt-get install nvidia-current

Yes it will downscale to output over composite. New Xbian is out for anyone who cares - v0.7b1 - with a further nice speed bump.

Are you running x? What desktop. Environment?

You can use xrandr. http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-change-display-resolution-settings-using-xrandr.html Had the same issue on my htpc. What modes are available are less to do with your card and driver and more to do with the edid on your tv. You can use xrandr to force modes not allowed in...

What distro are you on? I know pre-unity ubuntu had a very handy taskbar applet which showed the current frequency and let you get it to any of the speedstep speeds. ..once they moved to gnome3 i think these sort of applets stopped working.
