Helle people this is the official website for this thread and for everybody using linux or ubuntu so y'all should know logon to the site and lets get this stated alrite? http://ubuntunigeria./

ComputersRe: Programs And Drivers On Ubuntu Os by bigrovar(m): 10:37pm On Sep 05, 2007
bigrovar, thanks for the concern, i use a dell d600, 1.6ghz, 60gb hdd, pentium m
that is more than the required average so u wont have a problem.everything would run fine , by the way u didnt tell me the size of ur ram,


and i connect via lan @ d office, the speed is relatively good,
very good u will need it and by the way ur system would connect to it automatically if it doesnt then the manual configuration is very easy

i need to be able to do most of my graphics because thats what i do
well there are many programms that u can use for graphics u should feel at home,
will call u,
ok i will be expecting ur call
i also heard that xmms can play mp3s and blenderis cool 4 graphics. what is your take on that?
xmms is very good but i dont use it that much cus it cant manage ur music, i prefer amarok, and dont worry about mpe i just made an apt cd of all my packages wh u can easily add to ur system without downloading any thing.
my no is 08069194675
taken down
ubuntu linux for life
yes o

ComputersRe: Programs And Drivers On Ubuntu Os by bigrovar(m): 10:01pm On Sep 04, 2007
@ randa
welcome to the club man, like esquire said i have a couple of files that u would need to get ur ubuntu going, so trying calling me and i will be glad to share them with u, about the photoshop, yes Gimp is its equivalent on ubuntu. for corel there is inkscape which is lovely, but if u insist on using the windows apps u can always use wine to install applications native to windoze, or even install xp on ur ubuntu thru virtualisation as a slave os to do all those dirty works, about the mp3 issue, the thing is that ubuntu does not support anything that is not open source so codecs like mp3 does not come default with ur system, but i have a the packages u need to run that on ur system so no sweat in that, the thing about the cd is that it comes only with the basic os no additions but i have the dvd and also the ubuntu ultimate cd, so like i said try contact me, but b4 u do please can u giv the full specs of ur system and if u have access to the net, what way u connect to the net, abeg let me know, hope to hear from u soon mate, cus my ubuntu experience as been greate and a lot of love has been showed to me by ubuntu forks like afolabi and esquire so am itching to show the love to someone else. smiley, cheers

ComputersRe: The Worst Virus Ever! by bigrovar(m): 10:07pm On Sep 03, 2007
well thats because nobody is trying to hack it. because nobody is using it. so it appears to be virus proof.
omo that is not true windows get attacks cus the security is soo poor, infact its got no security at all, unix is just sooo secured that even an antivirus is not given full access to the system, i use to think like u but now i know beta, just do a search on google and u will see, infact most of the new security features in vista are a shameless copy of what obtains in linux

Orikinla:
Denrele is a very brilliant and intelligent young man and has always been unique since his days on campus at the University of Lagos. And more level-headed than most people I know in Nigeria.

The funny thing is, those who don't know him are just jumping to erroneous conclusions.

He is already a success.
u are right man, very humble dude

ComputersRe: Help! My Laptop Drags! by bigrovar(m): 2:50pm On Sep 03, 2007
well it could be a number of reasons.1 virus may be u have cut a worm like ravmon or bronkok, the presence of this things in ur system could cus a general slow down of ur system.
2.try defragment ur hard drive cus too much clusters in an HDD could cus ur system to slow down,
3 it coul just be XP cus after 6month xp is know to start dragging for no reason at all and the only thing u can do is format and reinstall
u could also try installing programms that clean registries like a registery cleaner i have something like that and when i have time would upload it for u,
CelebritiesRe: Denrele Of Soundcity by bigrovar(m): 2:43pm On Sep 03, 2007
Derele was my friend when i was in Lag, and one thing i know is that he is not gay, ( u ca always try him with ur girlfriend) he has been that way ever since i know him which means that is his original self no faking, WTF why do people freakout when they see some one u does things differently, If he were Jim Carey of Mr Bean, u will all say MEHN that guy is funny,, the guy is a nice guy, so what makes him gay cus he has his own style and doesnt fall into your own definition of cool, u guys are pathetic, and am sure a closer look at many of u saying shit about him would reveal that deep down u are insecured and have no self identity, mark my word Derele would go places, why? he his unique in his own way , and something about people like that is that they go far, why PHDs like u would always remain in NAIRALAND Dissing
