After numerous attempts to access my website I have been unable to get on to it. The url is: http://kcs.x10hosting.com This has been down since Friday 9th July 2010 Any chance that you could see what is going on please. Many thanks Glyn

I assume you are using the x64 bit version of Suse. If not that could be your issue. Only a thought.

This will be down to the drivers. Go to manufacturers website & get the latest driver if they are available for Windows 7. Does the camera even get recognised as a mass storage device? I suspect not. Same with the ipod. whether Apple will even bother to update drivers for older ipods is...

I have been unable to gain access to my website for a few days now. I assume that this is something to do with the move. I keep getting a connection refused error message. The website is http://kcs.x10hosting.com Any advice? Cheers

Are you using a cross over Ethernet cable. As said previously a cross over cable is required for PC to PC connectivity. A switch or router would be a better way to connect machines via Ethernet.

Looks good to me. I need to update my rig, but need some cash to do it. I will get there one day :-)

That is sooooo much better. The site is looking great. :-)

Out of the two, I would go for Ubuntu for a first time user or Linux Mint. Use Virtual Box to try out different os's as you will not destroy any data by accident if you are not sure what you are doing when partitioning a hard drive.

Yes, I would totally agree with this. Also try to make it a bit more friendly for Firefox users. You suggest installing the IE tab extension. You should really make the site more compatible with multiple browsers & not expect people yo install software to view the site correctly. The link that...

I use FileZilla under Linux. Don't tend to use Windows for FTP transfers.

Is there any options in the BIOS to enable the SATA drive to look like an IDE/ATA drive? If not you would need drivers for your SATA controller so that the XP install can use them. Ever thought of using Linux?

Not used the latest release of Windows 7, but used the RC version & found it quicker than Vista & not so much of resource hog. Probably be getting some machines in at work soon with Win7 on them. Normally I roll back computers to XP, if they come with a roll back disk but I will leave Win7 on...

Have the above tried Linux in any format or is Windows the only OS they have ever tried? Don't get me wrong, I like certain aspects of Windows. Ease of use by non computer types would be the main one, but Linux really needs to be tried to be appreciated. Just my tuppence worth.

All OS's have their good & bad bits, but for me Linux wins as my main OS. Mostly Ubuntu, but Linux Mint is a close second. I use Windows & MAC machines as well, but always fall back on Linux.

Lets face it all computers have their good & bad points, but what most users worry about is how fast it will be & if it can run all the programs that they want to use. I am a huge fan of open source, but even that can be lacking at times. The designs by Apple are probably some of the best I have...

I think I saw the add a while ago now & thought that it was good then. I am not against Mac's in anyway. I like a lot of the new design that Apple are coming up with, but I think they were on a bit of a loser with the macbook air. I have used the new mac's as part of my work & prefer them to the...

Does seem a bit pointless not being able to burn disk's these days. Although saying that I use mostly USB drives anyhow. I do like Lenovo machines though. My personal favourite.

What does she want then? I would have thought that some of the above would be relevant. I think you need to clarify what she is after.

I would have thought that things like computer programming & computer architecture would be a starting point, maybe even computer virtualization (virtual servers, desktops etc. Obviously it all depends on what you are wanting to achieve from the symposium.

I will try these out later & see how they perform. If they are better than OpenDNS I will keep them. Cheers
