Ubuntu 8.04 on Macbook 13"

Ubuntu on Macbook

The above link covers all the steps necessary to install Ubuntu on a Macbook 13" except:
upon a boot into rEFIT I had to enter its partitioning tool and synchronize the boot table otherwise I got the sad "No Bootable Device found. Insert Disk and press any key" when I would attempt to boot my Ubuntu partition. All you have to do is press the down arrow in the rEFIT boot menu to the Partitioning Tool then just synchronize the MBR.

How to access NAS with Vista

Network Attached Storage from Vista:
In Vista, don't access the NAS from your Network because authentication may fail as it has for me. Instead, in a window and not from Internet Explorer, put the IP address of your NAS (for me: \\182.165.1.3) to display the authentication window of your NAS, at that point insert you username and password for the NAS and you will be connected.

Leopard 10.5 on Macbook with cracked screen

How to install Leopard on a Apple laptop with a broken LCD:

I used an external monitor which required me to purchase a mini DVI to VGA adapter ($19 at Best Buy) in order to connect to my old CRT. Once I booted the computer to the Leopard DVD the Apple display drivers would load and default to the primary and broken LCD therefore I could not read any of the installation instructions. The trick is to close the top of the computer as soon as you power on the laptop in order to cause the Apple drivers to default to the external monitor. This method works every time but only after too much time spent with trial and error figuring it out.

Use At Your Own Risk

Ubuntu Graphic Card Install Help Using Envy

Great program if you aren't comfortable with a manual driver install and xorg.conf setup using the terminal.

This worked well for me in order to install legacy Nvidia drivers on an older Ubuntu Personal Computer that had incorrect screen resolution.

Nice work and Thanks to Alberto Milone

Nvidia PCI install over Integrated Intel graphics with Ubuntu 7.04

I had a very difficult time finding a way around an Nvidia PCI card crashing my Ubuntu 7.04 install. My motherboard has integrated Intel graphics but I wanted to use an inexpensive Nvidia card. Nothing worked until I found a couple of very helpful How To pages:

sorry dead links (10-20-07):

Once I followed the directions my problem was completely solved.

Xubuntu Linux

A light weight Ubuntu that works well on older machines.

I was recently given an old Gateway 9100 laptop and I figured that I'd experiment with a new operating system. Pentium II 266Mhz, 192MB Ram, CD, floppy, 6GB HD.

Completely wipe your old drive with (OS X from Apple zeros data too): killdisk
Running killdisk will delete all data on your drive once you run it so make sure you have important info saved before using it.

Download Xubuntu .iso CD (available for your Apple PPC architecture too): Xubuntu home page

Burn .iso (disk image) to a CD with disk burning software like Nero for Windows.

Boot your computer to CD and wait a long time then install to your drive.

This is an OS that I'm very happy with so far and it comes with a ton of software. I would say that it runs pretty even in speed to Windows 98SE but it actually found and installed all of my hardware! Once you are online try the Synaptics package manager for a huge amount of applications for download. If you are on a tight budget and have some free time this is the way to go.

Ubuntu Linux

http://www.ubuntu.com/

I have tested this OS extensively and it appears to work well and cover all of the bases. If you are looking for a free Operating System for your Microsoft or Macintosh this is the best one I have found.
