Hi there
Lucid Netbook Remix on Dell Inspiron Mini 10v. Since switching my Lucid
logon to Netbook 2d (Netbook + Gnome desktop), I've experienced a couple
of freezes. Once while writing a report in OpenOffice word processor,
and the other while writing an e-mail. On both occasions the only
with Ubuntu (of sorts). I've just
looked on the Dell website, and everything with Ubuntu seems to have
disappeared. That really seems a shame. I wonder what is going on.
