Anyone know how to get this working easily? I have my XPS 1530 laptop running Ubuntu 8.10 perfectly apart from my Blu Ray drive. Anyone got blu ray to work in ubuntu?

Well I rang BT today to see if they would give me my MAC code before tuesday and they said I cant have it because they cancelled my account instead of migrating it! Idiots. So now I assume I have to wait for BT to get off my line before Be* can set up? So I'm going to be without the Internet...

Thanks for all the replys. I can't get virgin to my house. Apparently they need to wait for roadworks so they can lay the cable :S. So what are my options? Should I stick with my poor ~80kb/s or switch ISP? Thanks, Hixxey

Thanks for the reply but what does that mean?

Since getting BT broadband two years ago my speed has slowly gone from 150kb/s (1.5 Meg) to around 80kb/s (0.8 Meg!) and thats with "up to 8meg" Option 3. I am thinking of getting Be There. But will my speeds increase? It uses LLU instead of ADSL. Here is some technical info for anyone who...

This is for all the networking people. I am trying to stream a video over the Internet using the Darwin Server. Does anyone know how I can get my stream across the Internet? I am able to stream to VLC player from a Darwin Streaming Server on the same network but I don't really know how to get...

Thanks mate. I'll get up to scratch on the subjects

I have plently of CSS/XHTML exp. but it was the OpenVPN I was worried about. I'll look it up.

Need a little advice on this job I have been offered. I've been offered a job at my old college maintaining their website. Here is the email I get from them. "We have some irregular work (ie freelance rather than a position) to maintain the current website by making content rather than...

Maybe you pay for the stablilty or the make? I don't know. All I know is they ain't worth the money. Stick to normal laptops with windows or linux.

can't update my drivers because ATI have disabled AGP gfx cards in their latest drivers (Slighty stupid). I could disable msn pop-ups but then I would'nt be able to see anyone come online :dapprove: lol

Done that. I've had this problem for years. It happens on both vista and xp.

Does anyone know why, when I'm watching a video on youtube and someone signs on to MSN, my firefox crashes everytime. It's really annoying and I cannot find anyone else on the Internet with the same problem.

You made a good choice changing to Ubuntu. Almost any problem you can think of has been discussed on a forum and resolved. Do a google search and you should find a solution for your wireless problem. Also. If you need to use a program that only works on windows, try WINE or VirtualBox.

Which one is the best for gaming graphically (frames per second, textures, ect...). I am getting the XPS 1530 with 256MB NVIDIA GeForce Go 8600M GT, 4 GB RAM, 128GB SSD and the Core 2 Duo T9300 2.50GHz,800,6M on the 23rd and was wondering if it would be worth keeping the 360? Maybe just keep...

All done. It's £49 + the cost of the item if you pay before September 2009. Ordered the XPS 1530 and should be here by the 19th. Now I need to start saving :S

Is this interest free? Can I pay the money back in full before that date without interest? From Dell website: "Yes, it's really true! It's shopping made easy! Simply choose from the great range of Dell equipment available to you - from Desktops and Laptops to LCD TVs and Projectors - choose...

Using it now. For a Beta I think it's really good. It loads instantly and pages also seem to load quicker. Few little things I need to get used to such as bookmarks and scroll speed but other than that it's defiantly worth trying out.

Sony vs. Acer. Personally I like the Acer but I think Sony is a better make. The Acer blu-ray looks fantastic but which do you people think will be the best overall? For Uni, Gaming, Movies, ect... Thanks

It's a bit of a long story but I really need some advice. I took my Clio in to Renault a few months ago before I went on holiday. It sometimes did not start if I left it for under an hour. Renault fixed this problem by replacing my ECU, TCU?, wiring looms ect... Which set me back £800. A bit...

Took it many other places last few weeks and they all say take it to Reanult because they cannot find the problem.

Renault have rang today to say on top of the £700 for a new ECU they need to do another diagnostic (£70) because the gearbox is faulty. I had a new gearbox form Renault a little over 12 months ago which cost me £1000 because it was playing up. The parts only get a 12 month warrenty!!! :mad: So...

I'm trying to learn C++ but I am having problems with the compiler under Windows. So far I have downloaded Cygwin and tried making a Hello.h file. I have also downloaded gcc or something like that. I get all sorts of errors (including something about iostream) Is there anyone here who programs...

Just been reading that but cannot find any links for the fimeware or tools. Which page? Thanks

I have also noticed that my HomeHub has a poor wireless range. Putting it on to channel 11 seems to help abit but it is still really poor

Home Bargains are selling them for £2.50 I got 2 the other day
