#1 Kubuntu 8.04 64 bit

Post by Buster Gunn »

Well I finally did it. I got Kubuntu 8.04 64 bit working on one of my Q6600's. It was actually quite easy after I had a fit and started clicking everything on the desktop. I looked up and saw the familiar Boinc Mgr screen. The neat thing is, I never had to go into terminal mode.

Now for the dangerous stuff.

1. Can I get the optimized Seti running on it? So far I can't find where to put the optimized app.

2. Can I get Boinc Mgr to startup automatically on a re-boot?

3. How long will it take me to delete the old Windows Vista crap?
(about 2 seconds) PS: This PC has an un-activated version on it.
No more worries there.

4. Just how many machines do I convert to Linux?

5. The only problem I have is that Linux does not recognise my
wireless USB adapters. The machine I got running is a direct
connect to my router.

6. This is fun.
