hibernation is good and quite healthy for ur hard drive, howevet some OPerating systems seem to have issues with hibernation e.g windows xp and vista but getting the latest updates for ur system would surely help reduce the probs,
but once in a while u still need to shut down and restart in other to refresh ur ram,

baani:
watz up, im opin some one will please tell mi the real differnce between linus/ubuntu and windowz op, i hv heard fm people that linus/ubuntu is not as plain and easy to understand as windows and it can crash a system if a command is written wrongly

afo don't mind that guy he is just another Winjunk fanboy, u feel linux is out to crash ur system,destroy ur harddrive, and kidnap u, u get what u deserve, WINDOZE

no gal is worth ur tears mahn, and those that do wont make u cry, take heart man , and live again,
NB gals are bastard, that is why u dont take dem serious

Hey this is my blog , its about trying to bridging the digital divide, u can get to download applications ,learn to optimize ur computer and get cool stuffs like wallpapers,ebooks and great computer tutorials, am a Nigerian but my blog is global in its out reach, as most of the comment i get are from non-Nigeria , its very educative, check it out www.bigbrovar. .

hope its cool

men thnks i tried it the shit is super fast,

Here are some of my latest screenshot, the first one is plugin in compiz fusion that enable all ur workplace to be displayed.my first work place is firefox,2nd is my virtualised xp,3rd is a chat session ,the last is my amarok music player

the 2nd screenshot is the cube desltop
the last is my desktop
the last is just my desktop

Amarok is the best Music player out there, the capabilities are just too much, it can play just about every music file,sync with any portable music player(including ipods,zen,iriver,and ur normal china mp3s ), further more amarok will fetch the lyrics to the songs you are playing and informations about the artist(in u are online), it will automatically download album art in the background also, u can also get to see statistics about each song-how many times there have been played.the last time it was played and the first time it was played, songs can easily be queued for play back, playlist,tag editing and feature that display the the songs u are listening to beside ur yahoo msger icon.are some of the features of amarok, by the way it is a player native to the KDE desktop environments in LINUX, but i heard that a Widoze version is available , AMAROK is another instance of the Power of open source, another power of Linux!

What is ur system config so we can easily trouble shoot the probs

P1i is out and available for 90k. I heard it's the same firmware on p990 but with an increased ram.

yes p1 is out but it does not have the same firmware with failed p990i, it uses about 80mb of ram and comes with a brand new firmware but it is built on the same UIQ3 platform so on paper it should be stable.

i need a P990i sony errickson in top shape withh all accessories complete at about N30,000. im currently using a P910i and needs to change it. a new P990i sells for about 50k.

anyone with a match can call, text or mail me on 0805577670, olacom3k@yahoo.com

Pleae don't buy that phone, it is crap, i was one of the first people to buy the phone the frist time it came out, i got it for 80k and ignored most of the warning i saw about the phone online, the result was selling the phone two weeks later due to serious problems
1 15mb of ram, on a freash boot the phone gets just 15mb of ram , for a smart for with wifi and office applications,2,0mp camera and other multimedia capability , it is criminal
2 memory leakage the biggest problem facing the UIQ3 platform today is memory leakage, a situation were the ram of the phone just start to decrease over time without anything accounting for the lost ram, eventually the phone will then restart, and the phone can restart it self 20 times a day mostly while doing more than one thing at a time, like listening to music and browsing .or using wifi to browse, the battery sucks the phone is just a piece of brick
3 over all firmware of the phone is rubbish, and the bad news it that sonyericson said they wont be supporting the phone with new firmware again and that the remaining problems of the phone is hardware related, to me that is the closest thing i company can come to say that this phone is a failure without actaully saying it, (for legal reasons), the problem of these is too much u just do a search on google u will be overwhelmed, p910 is better and more satble than .
alternatives
1 go for w950i come with UIQ3 but it is very stable and the ram is 24mb,is got 4gb of flash memory in built and the battery is the best i have seen since using a smart phone - and i have used 80% of nokia s60 smart phones.and dedicated music keys, very stable cus that is what am using now and i have never experienced a crash on it, and it is quite fast too.the down side is the lack of a camera and wifi.
2-go for p1 nice stable with 3.2 mp camera,and 80mb of ram, and from what i read online it is quite stable, but for now very expensive
3- wait for w960i coming out december, it an updated w950i with 3.2 mp camera,wifi,and 8gb flash memo. but from the looks of things its goin to be quite expensive so start saving now,

MAHN i just installed compiz fusion , nd o boy that shit is da bomb, i can't say more ,

the picture would never tell u the real story, GET UBUNTU

if e no be panadol e no fit be like panadol, no matter what u do xp /vista can NEVER BE like UBUNTU, Never, i just install compiz fusion and it is crazy, NOTHING You CAN DO TO WINDOZE would giv it 5% of what u get on beryl not to talk of compiz fusion, and the good thing is that u don't have to break the bnk to get these effect to work, even on an ancient graphic card will run beryl unlike wondoze vISTA that needs 2gb of ram and 128MB OF ram, ubuntu just needs 64mb and u are good, please lets not even talk of security and stability, cus that is yet another story,
