Bill Gates is awesome

Hey ladies,

I am visiting my good friends Neil & Ian in the Newcastle (very north England) and I brought my awesome new x60s with Linux installed thinking I am SO open source and awesome. So’s I get on the train and it has free wi-fi - RESULT!! after about 20 mins it stops working, I thing “fair dos - it is a train after all” I reboot and, well long story short, I never get it workign again. Get to my mates house, Check forums, post on stuff, call my linux mates and basically - I’d knocked some switch on the button labeled ‘wi-fi ON’.

Things are different up north, my mates got all excited, apparently the local cinema had been refurbished and we went out to see it. BIG WOOP.

YEah, no cartoon post as I tried to use Xara with my Wacom which I’d brought along, I just couldn’t work out how to use the Wacom drivers can someone please help!? http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/ I am too noob and thick to figure it out xx

    Hi Local Girl!

    Is your /etc/X11/xorg.conf (or XF86Config) setup correctly? Here’s the relevant parts of mine:

    I don’t know about Wacom tablets so much (I’ve always heard that they should work just fine under Ubuntu, but what do I know?), but please don’t sour on linux! Linux is awesome! We open source people are the coolest in the world! Except for the 95% that still live with parents, that is. Which I’m not. I swear.
