Just wiped and reinstalled Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal)
Much better this time.

I was running Ubuntu 10 for a while, and tried to do an upgrade to 11.04. After the upgrade, the display only worked when docked, and everything was all screwed up. So, wipe the HD, and reinstall.

Now it works like a charm!

4. It's the "code name" of Ubuntu 11.04
If you ever find yourself in want of a Computer Operating System, check out Ubuntu

It's Linux, but yet its user-friendly

My favorite flavor of LINUX, especially given that the port is based on Slackware (don't worry - this isn't important, except among us geeks)

5. My HP mini CAME with Ubuntu - I just didn't know the "code name". I've got a Mac cube, too...
...and I just gave up on keeping up with the large feline "code names" they were using. I call it OS X and as long as Cocoa works, I'm good.

Shit. I think the first Ubuntu version I installed was something like 3.1 - long time ago. I'd installed Debian before that, and Red Hat, and....

Historical Note: I don't remember which cut it was, but one of them from, oh, ten years ago or so, had a KILLER version of asteroids!!! I think that's one of the machines I have in the basement in "boot-ready" state.

6. The benefit of Linux is that it is constantly correcting itself
The downside of Linux is that it is constantly correcting itself

7. Um, well, there's no better way to state that.
