Trend Micro customers suffer weekend mayhem
Talkback Go ahead and do business the same old way, Mr. Beatty. Continue to build your fiefdom of subordinates whose only role in life is to support an inefficient enterprise. Meanwhile, the rest of the world rolls on.

Talkback OK Linux Lovers. If your world is so great how is it that 90%+ of Secunia Security Advisories are showing up flaws (some are downright dangerous) and weaknesses in your system? I'm no great fan of MS but I'm stuck with it.

Weekend Success - Ubuntu 8.10 on the HP 2133 Mini-Note
Blog Comment Hi Moley, Yes, after I installed Ubuntu it came up with the "hardware drivers" dialog, and gave me a choice between the "Broadcom STA" drivers and the public "b43" drivers. I have tried both, and they both seem to work, at least in my first...

Blog Comment The advice that is all over the Internet (i.e.force the vesa driver) worked for me when I first got the HP mininote 2133 and again after the main board was replaced the first time. When I got it back this past week, after the main board was...

Blog Comment I've just shunted my Windows 7 install onto another machine, and installed Ubuntu 64 on my old acer ferrari test machine. Surprisingly (to me) the audio worked straight away as it would with vista or 7.

Blog Comment @JGFuller- I downloaded the win7 beta, and installed on a spare computer. Could not find my nic card, or my SB audio card. Plus on every re-boot it would lose the video card driver, leaving me with a 640X480 Resolution.
