Hi everyone, I looked at the Pinguy linux and it was great.  Very Clean and Fast will all the software and codexs right there.

Hi Everyone hope this note finds you well.

Today I am talking about my IRiver H10 that I have with Rockbox.

I had some issues with performance of my H10 I went to the forums and the answers were there.

Over the years both at work and at home I have wanted a rolling release method on Debian. I was very happy that the Linux Mint folks made the LXDE version on Debian. To my surprise on two different machines I have had issues with this. The first was that Gpodder would not work on my standard normal Netbook – Thus Linux Mint Julia was installed and I am really in Love with that version it does everything well. I also tried it on my older think pad 1GB very old Intel processor and it installed but says something about broken packages and will not update or show me what do. So it is about over for that as well.

I heard on Distro watch that Debian might do a stable rolling release I hope so.

Enjoy

I have used Puppy Linux for a number of years. It has always been small and easy to use. The version 5.25 is no exception to the rule. It also the the most beautiful Puppy Linux ever that came out in standard form. Barry has done an excellent job.

I put it on my 1GB USB Stick that I use to fix broken windows computers at work and those of friends in the Heidelberg/Karlsruhe area of Southern Germany.

Gparted works well and the system resource application is very good.

In the rare case that I have an Internet Cafe that allows me to boot to it. “Which has happened in Frankfurt down town it work really well.

On this stick I also have a small collection of portable aps tools as well.

There is also a long term support Puppy that is not a pretty as the current one. But long term is long term.

Good Day everyone, I ran Android 1.6 off the Asus 701.

I had saw the demo of it on the Linux Action show and thought to give it a try.

The boot time was very fast.

The keyboard commands the Homekey or windows key and the esc button are real important.

The browser speed is the fastest I have ever experienced.

Video worked fine.

I could not figure out how to connect to a network share.

Other than that it worked great. 

Hi everyone been gone a while looking forward to the new Ubuntu.

If it is a new thing it will say hey I do not have cert from the server.
Then you log in with your normal password.
