screwing around with some acappella stuff for Linux Cranks show.

Hi everyone! I am a college student  going into my 5th year (couldn't find the right major of the longest time). I am studying Managment of Information Systems and Operations Managment. I have been playing around with linux for 6ish or more years and while I have learned a lot I still have a ton to learn. I love learning about linux and used to listen to Linux Reality and had not found a new linux podcast until now. I am only on episode 6 of linux basment but so far I find it to be very informative and can't wait to catch up to the current episode!

Want to install Banshee 1.0 on Hardy?

sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list

add this

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/banshee-team/ubuntu hardy main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/banshee-team/ubuntu hardy main

Then do

Sudo apt-get update
Sudo apt-get install bashee-1

Have fun!

I like the concept of openSUSE/SUSE and wanted to try this distro out. Is there an easy way to get the normal start menu back? They have some wierd new start menu that sorta resembles xp/vista start menu but i dont like it at all. It makes things harder to get to. If anyone knows, that would br great!

Hi, I'm new to Linux and run Ubuntu on a virtual machine. I completley love Linux but I can't install it because I share a computer so i'm screwed (unless I install it on my laptop I might get). I just found out about around 2 months ago, so I'm pretty new.

These are the steps I followed. I got all this information off the project pages here.
I decided to check out the latest code using subversion. You could conversly just download the lattest package and use that.
cd ~/programs/google
svn checkout http://google-gadgets-for-linux.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ google-gadgets-for-linux-read-only
