Hi David,
The windows boot loader is installed on the MBR as well as the partition
containing windows.
Installing a linux distro will typically install grub on the MBR leaving
the boot loader on the windows partition intact.

Hello Tom,
It is not possible to use ninemsn catchup under linux.

Hello Bowden,
My guess is you have a .htaccess file that is overwriting the rules for
that document base.
What are you trying to do? just a normal site with static files and php?
You should just need to put your files in the DocumentRoot directory and
get a basic page unless you have added any

do.Note that the 10th is a sunday so this may be better or worse for

Hello phil,
I have not tried using wunbi on a windows xp 64 bit but it should not
make much of a difference.
You may have a bad cd or a bad cd drive, i have had some problems
loading some cd's with various drives so it may be best to not use one
at all, instead just download the files yourself.

This is one of the channels you can ask for help.
if you would like more real time help you can join us in irc at

There is a release party being organised in the hacker space, and if it
cannot be organised there we will do a pub meetup or something.

Daily images are created as they build up to release, when they start

If you would like updates that have not yet been released into the
repositories you can enable the proposed repositories, check the wiki on
how to do this.

Boot for a live cd (does not matter much, the install is also possible).
i'm not sure where in the process it prompts for your password, it might
be when you scan and activate the lvm or when you mount the partition
you will have to see.
If you are on a live cd install lvm2:
sudo apt-get install
Hi Aryan,
Do you have python-daap installed?
That is the common library that the media players use.
daap is a cool protocol if you want to share between computers and it
works fine.
I prefer to just set up a common nfs or samba share and keep all your
files together instead.
I've used firefly
Yes this is most likely spam as you said you can actually use an online
version of norton.
You go to the web page and use an activx control.
Once you have authorised the use of the control it does appear to scan
the computer.

Though it's probably
Symantec has an activx based scan that you can use online so you may be able to
use that.

Other vendors may have something similar also.

If you have a question just go ahead and ask it.
Hi list,
Seeing we have a few people that can't attend regular meetings we could

Does anyone own a asterisk server that we could borrow for a few hours?

Hi Rob,
The alternate installer you can specify where you put your /home, i have
not used the live cd for a while so I am not sure. Even if it does not
detect that partition it can be added later.
One thing I would suggest is to record the list of programs you have
running and install them on

Divico cards may require an extra firmware to work, type dmesg and it will give
