I have been trying to get Ubuntu to connect to the internet. I have used a variety of websites, and nothing has worked. I have Ubuntu installed inside of Windows 7, and Win 7 works fine on the internet. How can I make Ubuntu connect to my wireless router?
http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download
This is where I downloaded my Ubuntu from. I don’t think it is any special type, just generic Ubuntu. If there is a different version of Ubuntu that works better with wireless cards, and can be installed inside Windows, I would appreciate a link.

Novell Linux, Mac, PC
These Linux, Mac & PC ads are great!
Novell Marketing Video for Linux playing on the popular Mac vs PC videos. What is Linux? See: en.wikipedia.org Some points for Linux off the top of my head: – Free (as in speech). I have the freedom to tweak the system as I wish. – DRM Free – Superior method of software updates, installation – Solid stability (servers I run have been up for 1+yrs, my desktop 1+ month) – Can scale down to very old/obscure hardware (I have a Linux file server running an old 266, 24MB ram – Virtually Spyware/Virus free – Variety of system tools not available in Windows. Extensive programming interface. – Very cool eye-candy ahead of other Operating systems. Youtube search “compiz”, see the upcoming KDE, see the current version of Gnome. – I know exactly what my computer is doing. Can’t say the same thing with Windows, OS X – Although I agree gaming is lacking, I personally don’t game on PC but what I do see is the amazing benefit of being able to have access to the thousands of OSS packages out there. – Luxury of using technology backed up by contributions and usage by companies such as IBM, HP, Sun, Google, many governments, military orgs, NASA, universities, super computer research. Outside the desktop Windows presence is not the greatest. – Constant updates to all my software. You can choose to run cutting edge or run stable. – Ability to decide what to install and what not to (can’t say the same thing about XP) – Freedom of not depending on one single vendor. I know my needs will not be …

Changing Screen Resolution With Ubuntu
I have the Ubuntu 6.06 Live CD and I am very pleased with it. I have a couple of questions though.
1) I have gone to the Ubuntu Forums for help on changing the screen resolution. I did everything they told me and it didn’t work. I heard from someone that you have to install Ubuntu in order to change the screen resolution. Is this true?
2) Is it safe to install Ubuntu? Have you ever had any problems with Ubuntu?

www.WPSalesPage.com Do you love the flexibility and ease of use (not to mention the SEO benefits) that come from building your websites using WordPress blogging software? I dont know about you, but I use it for nearly every website I create – except for my product sales pages. That has all changed now.

What is the best wordpress plugin for images?
Hi there – I run a wordpress blog and when I upload images, it’s a total pain to re-size them in the "manage post" section (especially for very large images). I usually end up resizing them and then uploading them. I would prefer to just upload the full size image, but haven’t found an easy to use plugin. Other than the flickr plugins, has anyone had good experience with any wordpress plugins for images?

Is there any open-source photo gallery that lets users download multiple images?
I’ve looked at some of the well-known open source gallery scripts, like Gallery, Plogger and ZenPhoto. While they all have great features, none seems to have a "multiple download" feature.
I want to be able to let users download the hi-resolution versions of images. I also want to allow users to download all images in an album.
Is there any script out there that offers this functionality?
