Dapper Dan
I thought that might grab some attention! Actually I've got three Linux distros on my box, and between that and the problems caused by Qtparted, (After initially partitioning with Partition Magic), my hard drive and grub are a mess.

Gents, what other forums do you find outstanding on-the-wire out here?

AndyFair
I haven't yet found another forum out there that provides the level of support we do here, with the level of expertise, and the general lack of flaming and trolls (apart from the Halo vs Half Life thread a couple of weeks ago) I think we should all be proud of what we've done here! And none of it would be possible ...

Automatic USB dection for digital camera/external HD?

LinuxCrusader
How do I make my digital camera to be automatically loaded, detected, or a program to open it up when I plug into a USB plug in my computer? I'm using Knoppix 3. 7 and I remember that with Mandrake and fedora core 3 it would be automatic detected and bring a proman to donwload my pics.

clutch
Just thought I would pose a poll as for your reasoning in selecting this OS. For me, the final kicker was the pricing on upgrading our Exchange server from 5. 5 to 2000. As there is no longer an upgrade option, it will now cost at *least* $10,000US for us to REPLACE the licenses, rather than a few grand at the most ...

Hi everyone, I have install Fedora core 3 before chistmas and eveything looks good so far; except the internet connection! I have been looking all over the net before christams and now today (4pm!, been at it all day) and except people having similar issues, I can't find any solution out there.
