Ubuntu

I have a thinkpad r40 and I have moved to Ubuntu Jaunty. I am still using windows as well for programs that refuse to work with wine, Although Ubuntu still has majority of the space on the 80 gig drive.

There are a few things that sorting out like the volume controls dont work and the hibernation doesn't seem to work.

one of the biggest problems is that it seems that the xorg-xserver seems to take up a lot resources and make loading windows and web pages a drag sometimes.

Ubuntu

I have moved to Ubuntu Jaunty. I am still using windows as well for programs that refuse to work with wine, Although Ubuntu still has majority of the space on the 80 gig drive.

I had some issues with the the xorg drivers for my ati graphic card. I can not use the driver put out by ati. xorg would take up about 20% or more of CPU time which would slow the laptop down. However I have found a website that had a forum where some had found that inserting Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy" into the xorg.conf file would solve this issue, and it works.

This is what I entered into my xorg.conf

Section "Device"
Identifier "ATI Radeon"
Driver "radeon"
Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"
Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy"
Option "AccelDFS" "true"
Option "EnablePageFlip" "true"
Option "EnableDepthMoves" "true"

Miss USA runner-up sparks gay rights row

Miss California’s comments at Sunday's pageant were the best. She was asked an honest question and she gave an honest answer. What surprises me in a country that prides itself on democracy and the freedom of speech, here is a person who willing to speak her mind and answer a question honestly. Instead of being praised for her honesty she is being crucified for not pandering to those fags and dykes out there who are full of their on importance. They want to brain wash everyone to their way of thinking. They want to act like to Muslim fanatics and ban any religion or though that doesn't conform to their way of thinking. I take my hat off to you Miss California.

Oh here is a hint to that fag Perez Hilton. If you don't want an answer you don't like then dont ask the question fool
