I read that my laptop is compatible with Ubuntu and Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope, so I was wondering if I could use it on my Sony VAIO VGN-N250E. Thank you for your help.

Yes. Mint is just a derivative of Ubuntu. I just installed it on my HP DV6000, and I like it a lot.

I want to make one of my desktops wireless. But I cannot get the card to work. I am using Ubuntu 8.10. I am new to Linux, so I can use any help I can get.

Thanks
It says, “autorun program not found” or something of that nature.

Answer by gvs
Um… there’s a possibility that you wireless card drivers didn’t install properly. But usually Ubuntu supports most of the NICs, be it them wireless or otherwise. I assume the wireless NIC you want to install did not come with the motherboard. You might need to go to the website of the providers of your wireless NIC and download the corresponding Ubuntu drivers for your NIC, usually a .deb file which you can install by double-clicking on it. You might also want to check if at all the wireless NIC is installed in your Ubuntu by issuing the “ifconfig” command and look for “wlan0″ on the output. If you find “wlan0″. If it’s not there, then you might consider reinstalling. I think it would have been more helpful if you had stated the brand of your wireless NIC.
Hope this helps.

Logitech usually provides adequate linux drivers. Make sure you have 2.0 USB ports as wireless units usually don’t work with USB 1.1

To use Windows programs on Linux you can use a program called WINE. Here is a link to the WINE website.

I know I can build one capatible for windows but I was thinking of going with linux because it gives you more freedom but I was having a hard time figuring out what was campatible with linux in order to build a 3D system.

Best answer:

Answer by comtech391
1. You need to know what distribution you are going to use.
2. You need to go to their web site to find the compatibility list.
3. Linux already has Compiz Fusion for 3D graphics and desktop environment.

Really can’t help, since that is about all I know about it, even though I run Linux Operating Systems. Just not interested in 3D.
