Archlinux is actually easier than it looks like, unless you have some troublesome hardaware in which case any Linux would cause some issues, the only warning here is that is petty addictive, once you feel the power of installing your own "flavor" it would be quite difficult not to keep...

It could be that when you installed Ubuntu, the "paswordless login" (do not remember the exact words) was check, you can always change that behavior in the login screen options. I do not think you have the administration permission once you are on your desktop. For any administrator task it...

Keep translating little bits from English to Spanish here and there once in a while... and every time I design something I let people know it was under Open Source Software ;)

If you must access the file in W7 one way around is to create a partition in FAT so the two systems can share it, (it has its limitations specially with size) as for Linux, it does have no problems accessing your W7 partition and data therefore you can have a file you save and use in windows, if...

Install the Cheese application, it will download the required software for a webcam, there you can test it, most integrated webcams works right away, now for using it with a messenger would depend on which one you use, I haven't had luck with empathy, but Kopete works fine, I am sure other...

I think subdivision is a good option when the traffic is heavy, in this specific case there is no much activity on the forum, seeing the new topics/comments takes a few seconds, also many hardware related problems affect most distros, is been a few times when a solution in one distro had helped...

That could be many things, try making another copy of the Ubuntu CD (note: U-12.04 is around the corner, any reasons why you want the 10.10 instead of the 11's, just curious) this could be because the CD may be faulty, if it is blinking it means is trying to boot, therefore we know is not that...

If it is like the extreme 5 is not a bad looking in real life, I just build my rig with it and matched with blue kingston memory and blue ambient case, is definitely not a outstanding looking mobo but for the price/features is not a bad bargain.

I am probably wrong but it doesn't look like they are going to "replace" the menus, HUD seams just another way of access them, it is a visual minimalistic approach, and for those comfortable with the keyboard is going to be definitely a feature, in the mean while while gnome3 is maturing I...

Sounds good... if it is as efficient as Gnome-do or Dash in the way it finds the programs, using different keys/shortcuts for each application is somehow unpractical, is a matter of standardizing >all< of them, like Ctrl-s, I almost never use the mouse to "save or save-as" files.
