I know everyone is sick of these linux threads, but I got a dual boot of Ubuntu 5.10 and Windows XP on seperate disks working the other day. My Theme is a customized with the T-ish theme from gnome-look.org and some Mac OS style icons.



Everything's been working pretty smoothly with Ubuntu, except it seems that I've been having some trouble with sudo apt-get install. Apparently the packages that I wanted weren't available such as xmms. I tried a bunch of stuff, even logging in as root, but it keeps saying it's not available. I'm a member of ubuntuforums.org now, so maybe I'll look around there more.

cheers.

Nice.

I was going to use Umbuntu's SAMBA for my server, but my Mom doesn't understand linux so I had to use win2k server.

You should just update to 6.06 since you've got a fresh install. It is quite improved
