When you deleted the stuff using a partition tool, did you write exactly the same partition table over it a second time or did you change the setup?
And have you tried just reformatting it using...

Wow... I absolutely LOVE your description of KDE - is it patented? :D

Xorg is becoming the default and develops faster. I've heard that XF86's 3D drivers are better though - don't know what to think of that, but you might wanna know :)

Never heard of one unfortunately... you could use wine.

I believe ACPI is newer and has more features. I've never used APM... They probably both work, but I'd go with ACPI. When I look at your config file it looks as if both ACPI and APM are included - I...

As quiet as possible is always good.
You can get quite some webspace at 100webspace.com - you could put everything there and post a link here (you could even use my account to save the hassle of...

Ubuntu can use the debian sources, that will bring it very close to debian. Ireally like the install way on juerd.nl - it's meant for raid, but can be used without. Doesn't do any autodetecting...

Lol... I don't think andy's gonna reply - as this thread's from like 16 months ago :)
Very cool link though

I have Ubuntu installed on my brother's computer, and you can definitely use Debian's package depositories - just edit your /etc/apt/sources.list and add them!
I did that for my brother and it works...

Hooking an mp3 box up with a stereo sounds really cool :)
root is the single user that can do EVERYTHING. For unix it really doesn't matter whether that's on purpose or by accident. SO ONLY USE ROOT...

If you have a spare partition, you can put your backup stuff there and wipe the system partition - everything stays intact that way. You could probably also make a dir /bak, delete EVERYTHING else on...

You should change into the build directory first, then (from there) run the configure script in the source directory, and then make will normally run. But, as kevinalm said, it is documented very...

There is no "best distro for a laptop" since it all goes through the linux kernel and userspace programs that can work on any distribution - if you got your wireless card to work in one, it's...

heh yeah... binaries should be in /usr/bin - so /usr/lib wouldn't be the correct location for the gnu compiler collection. If it's the only thing whereis returns, it means you don't have any other...

I'd rather not use ndiswrapper - linux drivers for your card at prism54.org . You'll have to learn how to install and build modules then, though. I think "Intersil" is the card - it has a Prism GT...

Hmm... I dunno why hotplug doesn't work then...
For slackware what I'd do is put it in rc.local or even rc.gpm - I haven't ever used modules with slackware so I don't know about any configuration...

gehidore: Yeah, I meant the entire open source community actually - not even all GNU/GPL/Linux (BSD licenses as well) but people often refer to that as Linux. Which is, btw, the reason I put 'linux'...

Before any misunderstandings occur: ;)
There's hotplug in the kernel which (I think) sets the option that the kernel passes info to userspace when something is plugged in, and there's the hotplug...

The question has been here and on linuxquestions (I think) before. At the time I also heard it was Suse. I personally don't think he is 'the man himself' though, he's the main person behind the...

I'd suggest Slack or Debian.
I'm not gonna ever suggest someone to use windows! :D

You'd be best off with hotplug ( linux-hotplug.sf.net ) which loads modules for anything detected automatically. But you could make it load automatically as well - there's many ways, put it in a...

You're lucky - this is one of the few 802.11g cards with decent linux drivers. Go to prism54.org and download them there.
/me is going to buy the same card some time soon

I finally tried Ubuntu - and omg, I have to agree. It sets up all the hardware really nicely, everything works out of the box. Only thing I don't like is the default brown color for everything.

Have you tried downloading from different servers? And have you verified the images?
