Re: cinnamon 17

I am running a LG Flatron monitor W2453V it is a 24 inch led Monitor.
I tried the live Cd cinnamon 17 64 bit. i held the tab+e button when it tried to run.
it could not get by the 24 inch monitor..
When i tried it with the 19 inch monitor it was fine.
Hope this helps.

Re: maya 13 dialup not recognized by system

Actually i don't think dialup people have been thought of in a long time.
I just went back to mint 11 at least that works well for me ..
Well enjoy even when using dialup..

dual boot win7 and Xfce

Does Xfce work well in a dual boot with windows 7?
I have tried Ubuntu in a dual boot situation and when ever there was a kernal update it would mess up the dual boot record.
Xfce loads well on my laptop as a live cd/dvd,
all help appreciated.
