I agree with KeithP. There should be a simpler way than Paypal of making a donation. How come you can't buy Cassandra from the store?

But, I am seeding the torrent.

Does that count for anything? LOL

Yes it does. If everyone seeded their torrent then it would take some pressure off the system. I've been seeding for a couple of days. I;m closing down now because I am away from home. More seeding is good.

I too am seeding but as my isp provider has restrictions, i can only seed between the hours of 12:30 and 07:30 but i will continue doing that, cant wait for the contract to end so i can change providers

That is the wireless driver. When I first installed Bianca the included BCM43xx driver didn't work because Dell used a slightly different version. Turning off your wireless card in the BIOS will stop the error, then you just need to boot (at least to command line, I'm not sure what the Xserver issue would be), and add the built in bcm43xx module to the black list then use ndiswrapper to add the dell supplied version. Full instructions are here - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=297092

I haven't upgraded to Cassandra yet myself, but I expect this will get the wireless card working.

Isn't Dell shipping this with Feisty preloaded on it?

Clem
Yes the are, even the Inspiron E1505 N is selling with Ubuntu on it.
It's only in the US and Home Office section. I would normally go through Small Business because of better Customer Service on your Warranty.

I wonder if they added a dell section to the sources.list and if Linux Mint could use it?

At www.distrowatch.com Linux Mint has moved up to number 4.
Cassandra has really become popular.
Great Job to everyone who helped on Linux Mint 3.0

Congrates Clem, class act. No problems to speak off and works a treat. Speed around the desktop on my P4-3.0 is great.

At the bottom it tells you how to install KDE on Cassandra.

Now that I see your sig, it occurs to me we might need to update the ad with Cassandra, too... :wink:
I don't have a solution, but I do admire the problem.

Hello Sorensei,
Glad to hear from you. :) Yes, you are quite right. We must have a Cassandra banner too.

Cheers
