Btw, where did you get the picture on the XP desktop from? It looks like a shot from the movie, The Matrix, am I right? My taskbar is on auto-hide and I have no idea where the picture came from. Edit: while we're talking about ubuntu anyway, has anyone tried to install mouse drivers? will they even work? I hate the way my mouse feels under ubuntu. T.T | ||

I suggest openSUSE 10.3, i've installed and used fedora, ubuntu and openSUSE and i can vouch that the most recent openSUSE is the easiest distro to setup and use. i've done no additional setup at all! it's all done and taken care of. Ubuntu is great but i still had to set up drivers for ati and compiz which can be a pain. | ||
