Compiz at work on Ubuntu 15.04 with a few modifications...And for me, a terminal or six, is always a must, no question.

So if you have ever had a need for a commercial grade router with all the bells and whistles you may have came across pfsense. Due to it's changing in licensing the community split off a continuation of the projects original goal but maintained it's original open source license. Needless to say...

If you are hard up for resources you can setup a fresh install of your preffered distro without X so that those resources can be otherwise allocated and just ensure you have an ssh server for LAN access for setting the machine backup. If not I would at least check init.d scripts for any...

If the destination drive is at least the size of the original drive you can easily use CloneZilla which is live bootable media. It is quick and efficient but with limited function, it's built for doing a few things but it does them well. The other more flashy option is http://redobackup.org/...

Oops, forgot to add the link, edited the post.

As a primer there is a huge list of how-to articles which over time has become an excellent resource, by the Ubuntu community if one was to want a very comprehensive document reference. http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Karmic As far as codecs go, I'm not sure why so many people have kept...

Well I would be more than happy to help anyone out with any Linux questions. I run a really nice website [not going to link to it atm], but I've been using Linux exclusively on the desktop over ten years, and Ubuntu just for the last few, so I should most likely be able to offer some help with...

Ok, this year I'm getting the intel bundle and from what I've read it'll be the 1066Mhz fsb, Core 2 Quad. I'm going to get a different board, so overall I'm just looking at the question is should I dish out the cash for the 1066Mhz memory and run 1:1 or just get the corsair xms 800Mhz memory and...

Any more news on the Fatal1ty board? I'm very interested in purchasing one. Is everything still holding up fine? Anyone end up running into heat issues on the Northbridge? Any follow up information would be greatly apprecaited.

I have a 42U rack [over 6ft] in my computer room here next to me. There are actually many differences in rackmount machines. Design, construction, stability, and especially configuration. Most REAL rackmount machines you'll find [1U-2U] have a ton of integrated stuff and lots of BIOS options...
