  1. I bought one of these...wires. Takes 3 to 4 days to get here. That'll work fine.
  2. I'm waiting till someone yells "They fixed it!", that's usually a good sign. Doesn't matter what was wrong in the first place.
  3. Thanks everybody, but I think I'm gonna go with a 75 foot ethernet wire. Ticky tacky & all, but at worst it'll look goth/steam punk. Now let's see if I can find a PC store that won't rip me off for friggin wire.
  4. Should I get the award winner, or the one with speed booster?
  5. Basically it's my sis's PC with an ADSL modem on the 1st floor, and another PC with no modem on the 2nd floor. Do I need 2 routers (1 for each PC) or just one router set up at my sisters' modem? I've heard of Linksys before. My sis's modem "speedtest.com" carriage is about 5000 download and 450 upload. What range $$$ (per router) am I looking at? I don't want to spend an arm & a leg. Sorry for the extremely basic questions. I've never had routers in my life before.
  6. I'm trying to get info on cost & set-up for a wireless router between 2 home PCs. I'm checking online now. Anybody know of what's good and what to stay away from? They usually don't tell you that kind of stuff in reviews.
  7. I even had partitioned my drive so it would be WinME Fat 32 / WinXP Fat 32 / WinXP NTFS. All defragmentations ran slow in each partition.
  8. I wonder why the extensions are in toolbars instead of in the side panel. Yeesh, what a waste of real estate.

    Neither do I. I want functionality. The heck with their religion.

    I replied to this thread earlier, but it didn't take. Hmmm.... I did what you said and it worked. Thanks! I find it weird that I had to enter 'restricted' in the search feature. That's one thing I hate about brand new OS's, I feel like such a noob.

    Too late, I already did. I know what you're talking about, but I didn't see anything that fit the task description in that choice box. I'll look at it again, but I'm gonna keep an eye on my slippy mouse fingers around the desktop. Ooo, quick question... I'm trying to download Adobe Flash Player for Linux. Which one? (Ubuntu, Hardy Heron) tar.gz? rpm? or YUM?

    While running Ubuntu I had Firefox running. During that time I was discovering the Panels options (those top and bottom panel bars). And I found the Add/Remove features of them. While trying to remove the 'space bracket' between the "show desktop" icon and Firefoxs' running application tab, I accidentally grabbed FFs' app tab and removed it. I've looked all over for it, yelled its name out loud a few times, but I dinna find it. Now, it seems that whole feature is missing. No matter what app I open, its respective running app tab doesn't appear on the lower panel. Is there a way to return that feature to the lower panel (or any panel) that doen't involve uninstalling & reinstalling Ubuntu, or learning code? I haven't found a way so far.
