Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Hah, I know what you mean. I first tried linux maybe 7-8 years ago and dabbled every now and then and that is how it felt like. I don't think it's that much like this anymore, except for a few of the more advanced distros. Places like the gentoo forums are definitely like that. But the forums...
Well, If you were specifically asking how to do something, I'd explain in a different manner of course. If you wanted clarification, just ask. I'd have no problems explaining it. But jotting down basic things step for step is a waste of time (we don't want that now do we?) unless someone asks...
Just wondering, what did you guys have to do that required so much terminal use in Ubuntu? Hardware related? Most of the time everything is available in the repository via synaptic (search, click, install?) or I can usually find a .deb which takes less clicks than an .exe.
As for the...

Souleron, you sound a bit misinformed. Which is probably another reason why someone buying a dell wouldn't buy it with ubuntu :p
Must be Nvidia, PCI-E, preferably quiet, and perform around a 6600 or better. Not looking to spend over $50. It'll be going into a linux box that'll only touch a few select games once in a while. Drop me some offers, deal links, etc...
Ah sorry guys, turned out it was just a bad slipstreamed cd :p. I made it a while ago and forgot I never used/tested it. But this board is odd because if you only have IDE drives you do have to use the bridge or else the optical isn't detected on bootup. Then during installation you have to F6...
I'm attempting to install winxp on an IB9 on an IDE HD with an IDE optical. The IB9 doesn't support IDE off the bat so you have to use an including SATA-IDE bridge to use an IDE optical combined with a floppy with the IDE driver on it (created with the including abit CD) to load during the...
