On that note...any idea why my Kubuntu Edgy system will randomly replace my xorg.conf with one generated by dpkg-reconfigure??? It's driven me so far up a ****ing wall that I have a script in my /etc/init.d/local that diff's my xorg against a backup in my home directory and copies it over before I even log in.

It's really frustrating...

    months. So I reinstalled windows, well, first deleted the windows partition using the windows XP

  9. Do I Need To Do Any Extra Setup For Audio / Video Output?

    Since we already assumed you have an up and running linux installation, you most likely won't
    have to do any work in this area. Most modern distributions automatically configure X and audio for
    you, and there is a host of information on the web for configuring X. As far as audio goes, there
    are many different audio architectures available. We recommend choosing a distribution that uses
    ALSA (the advanced linux sound architecture) by default since it is the most powerful sound system
    and supports the most hardware. If your distribution doesn't include it, check o....

  15. With Wubi The Hard Drive Does Not Have To Be Repartitioned Before The Ubuntu Installation
    (2)
    Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows that lets you install and uninstall Ubuntu from a Windows
    desktop. Wubi adds an entry to the Windows boot menu which allows you to run Linux. Ubuntu is
    installed within a file in the Windows file system (a loopmounted partition), this file is seen by
    Ubuntu as a real hard disk. That way the hard drive does not have to be repartitioned before the
    Ubuntu installation. The resulting Ubuntu installation is a "real" Linux system, not just a virtual
    machine. Wubi makes it easy for Linux newbies to play around with Ubuntu. http://wubi-i....

    On the first day of this month Cononical released the latest iteration of their linux distribution,

    linux distribution that is useable by the masses. Originally intended to be released in April (I
    believe) it was delayed to polish up a few things and I think it was well spent. I have seen
    numerous threads on this forum about choosing a linux distro to try as the first distribution, and
