Re: Old PCs & low memory & Linux

I am on wireless and have low signal strength. I wondered where you went to. I can imagine you have had a problem with that head work. I could stick a 327 Chevy 8 in that frame faster than I could change the head. <> I am going to copy your instructions on the torrent file.I had the small one but deleted it.I will catch another when the fat lady gets away from the antenna over there.LOL! I have the latest versions of these. Sabayon Mini.Dreamlinux.Knopix and Goblin x . The last one has no program to get wireless going without adding info. But the others will show my Prism wireless installed but I still can not get online. Other Linux versions have good programs to get wireless on line. On this PC I loaded Mint GNOME.If I do not click on the update icon it all works fine.If I do then I have no wireless.It is a Ubuntu update and jams the wireless operation. But I like this load too.--------- Is it hot where you are working? PCs are easy compared to those cars.You can lift the PC easy and no grease is on them. Here is a thing I would like to do in the line of mechanical work.Do a certain modification to cars or trucks.You can learn the tricks easy. You have to know a lot to just repair one brand of vehicle today. Or do something new with computers. But if you can do the work there are people who will pay good money because they have to depend on a mechanic to get their vehicle going.I spend a lot of money on tools because I like to have a tool for every job.
