    Which distro for a netbook?

    Looking for some recommendations from those of you who've installed a flavour of Linux on a netbook. The machine in question is the Lenovo S12 ION, and I'm doing this for a silver surfer friend of mine who doesn't want to use the Windows 7 it shipped with. I'm set against Xandros as I've had no...

    The "be nice to SY01" thread

    I realise this is a "mememe" but to be honest I have had such a bad day I just don't care. As every IT bod should I keep religious backups. I do, religiously. My main system has died. An Ubuntu 64 bit server. I have an operating system image of about 6 months ago and regular data backups...

    Linux hosting

    Chaps, am after some hosting for my website, fairly small (less than 50mb) but it has a CMS i would need to install. Not after any fancy dancing SLA's just simple hosting where i can install (or already has) php, MySql and SliverStripe. Low cost would be good to! ;) Any ideas?

    How Increase Linux partition size

Eeeeeeeeeeeveryone on the web says to use GParted, the thing is the resize / move option does not allow you to INCREASE only...

    Linux - a rant

    I like Linux, its good at what it does but if the Linux community wants to attack the Windows desktop world its going to need to pull its finger out. I first started with Linux when you used to have to download a load of floppy disk images and there was no graphical interface. I still have the...
