My experience with Ubuntu...not great

[Giles Richardson]

hey,
i totaly agree that it can be a bit of a workaround to get some of those 
things going that is if u dont know about this script: prefectbuntu just 
type than into your firefox address bar (it will take you 
to:http://www.category5.tv/linux_scripts/perfectbuntu.php) and click the 
download button it will then bring it up as a page which u can just 
save(no extention required) once you have saved it go to it in the 
file-browser right cick>properties then go to the permisions tab and 
check the allow execution tickbox, close the properties window then 
click on the script and click run in terminal. this should setup 
everything that you choose and all work(only downside is firefox may 
call its self shiretoko but wil still work fine)
