Koala Mini is Ubuntu rocking mini machine
by DJ Neawedde | 7th October 2006
The Ubuntu sporting systems provider System76 has brought us something new with an interesting alternative to the Mac Mini. The System76 Koala is just 6.5 inches wide/deep and less than 2 inches tall. This actually reminds us a lot of the Linspire self-branded Mini we saw back at CES, but with beefier specs.
The specs are surprisingly impressive. Core2 Duo, firewire 800, gigabit Ethernet, 802.11a, b, and g, DVI, S-Video…it all sounds good. Koala comes with Ubuntu pre-installed. This really seems like a great way for more home users to start using Linux. We love to see systems providers bringing consumer machines like this to the market with Linux pre-installed. Fun…

heyas all.
my 40 gig drive is going to good use now. I have installed UBUNTU and have ordered KUBUNTU.
I dont know how to install the driver for my ati radeon 9600xt.
Actually i dont know if i am meant to be downloading and installing XFREE86 or the XORG version of the driver. I am downloading them both but i dont know how to do anything in Linux really.
I dont know where I am meant to set up my modem or set up a net account. (no INETWIZ.EXE)
So yeah, can someone help me out with getting my ATI driver installed?
and does anyone know of a good long PDF file i can read and wrap my brain around.
I’m still a Windows user, but I want to use Linux as much as possible.
Thanks.
