[ubuntu] Choosing between video cards - 7900 gs or 8600 gt?view story

http://ubuntuforums.org – I'm buying a computer off of my brother, and I was just wondering which video card is better in terms of performance. His computer has a nVidia GeForce 7900GS, whereas mine has a nVidia GeForce 8600GT. I looked at a site which compared video cards and they seemed very similar, and I was wondering which would be a better choice. Thanks for any input (Hardware)

[xubuntu] "Unable to find a medium containing a live file system" Sony Vaio PCG-N505SNview story

http://ubuntuforums.org – Hi there I want to install xubuntu on my old Sony VAIO PCG-N505SN; I have tried both the Live Desktop and main install, but it always gets to a point where it says "Unable to find a medium containing a live file system" I *believe* this may be because there are issues with the PCMCIA CD-ROM drive... The laptop boots from that drive OK. (Hardware)
