I installed ubuntu 9.04 on my dell studio 15. Most things I have checked are fine except the sound. It is inaudibly low, I tried the on line suggestions, and it is a little better but still not what it should be. please help me. Also I downloaded vim72 for linux but it was just a folder with a lot of files, how can I install it. I am an absolute beginner and know nothing. Please help. Hiya Mista D... What's your name ? Mind if I address you as Pranav ? Well... abt Ubuntu linux, seems you got surprised on finding that the vim72 you downloaded for linux is just a zipped up folder. A archived folder is in stark contrast to what you'd see in MS WIndows... installers as msi files or as setup.exe ? Well to dig into a bit of history-- Ubuntu is a derivative of a strain of Linux called "Debian Linux". The installer format on debian is .DEB files. If you download anything which has been built as a installer for debian linux--- you'd get them as .deb files too. Archiving the files needed for installation is just one way of distributing stuff-- but the preferred way on debian linux and it's offshoots is ".deb" installer files. I hope that helps... If anything else, please feel free to ask. Best Wishes and Regards, Nalin Savara nsnsns(at)gmail.com ps: maybe this answer is a bit long-- not that I love typing-- but I wanted the answer to have background info in a way that it is helpful to you. pps: also I suggest you also learn the unix basics-- from classmates or from some book about unix. --~--~---------~--~----~------ Love Cricket?
