I have some corsair vengeance 1866 mhz ... the board will only recognize it as 1600 without overclocking (I have yet to try this)

Its in open beta now so all can give it a try... ya if using amd graphics card the x.org drivers will open tf2 but play it at about 10 fps. The proprietary drivers that come in most distro's repo cause the whole black box opening for a second then nothing happening... I installed the 12.11 beta drivers from AMD's website and TF2 opened perfectly and ran at a steady 300 fps

I have an Asus m5a99x that looks similar to that board.. It was the easiest board ive ever set up, the UEFI bios is a little weird, you can control everything with a mouse and its really graphical, but still lets you do everything you need to do. The only problem i've ran into with my board is that it only supports 1600 mhz ram, without overclocking.

Anyone else ever get into this? I got an email a week or 2 ago and installed it on mint 14. Have to use some beta amd drivers for tf2 to play at a normal fps.

Saw this earlier and it sounded pretty cool. I personally think the mini pc looks pretty interesting. http://www.pengpod.com

No problem. Hopefully everything gets sorted out.

Have you tried calling the number listed at the bottom of the hakshop's website?

Thanks for the feedback, I have my final for the class this week so ive been going through everything. I'm going for a quick AAS in programming so I don't think I will get into taking any cisco classes higher then maybe the introduction. Next semester I'm taking IT essentials, and introduction to linux(stupid pre requisites), along with some of the general classes I need

haha.. Thats is a good one, I would fill it with arnold quotes from Total Recall I personally liked the pacman on the voting machine part. ohh wow a friend of mine had a roomba years ago, i didnt realize they were even still around, it sounds really interesting though.

I was looking around and found this pretty cool video. The guy is talking about tests done where people hack cars, pumps for hearts, and some other interesting things. I thought it was pretty cool so I'm sure some of you here will get a kick out of it also. http://www.ted.com/talks/avi_rubin_all_your_devices_can_be_hacked.html?p_pro=0&p_vep=7&p_ves=0&p_lqa=0&p_lqe=0&p_lsu=24&p_lst=0&p_lex=299&p_lng=en&p_lid=en-us&p_elm=80&p_var=%252Ffa%252Fen-us%252Ftoaster-virus-update_news_ted-limits-to-hacking.html

And they saved the best for last. Finally getting into the good stuff, network security. :D

I stumbled upon this, haven't given it a test yet though. http://www.omgubuntu...eta-invitations

aww man thats a bummer... They are gonna have to expand from debian sometime and maybe the will have you at the top of the list for that.

The closed beta for Steam on Ubuntu has started. Valve is looking for about 1k people to actively test the Steam client for linux. You can take the survey below to sign up for a chance to try the beta out. From What I understand you will need a Steam account with the game LFD2. This is great news for all of us Linux users, still using Windows for our gaming needs. http://www.valvesoft...linuxsurvey.php

I also recently got Dirt 3 free with a graphics card haven't got around to installing it though... I also was able to get skyrim, RAGE. and BF3 for 10 bucks each from toys r us a few weeks ago but also haven't really been playing them.. The one game I've really been playing is CS:GO, just trying to get used to the difference between it and source.

I noticed a few months ago that a wisdom tooth in the top left side of my mouth broke skin, only a little bit of the side of the tooth is exposed so it kinda reminds me of a fang in the back of my mouth.. Still haven't noticed anything happening on the other side or on the bottom

This happens to me also when using linux mint 13, Works perfect in backtrack.... I had found an update at one time that claimed to fix the problem, I personally never tested it though.

Yes sometimes windows can get really annoying but i find little things in any OS that bothers me.. Steam is a program similar to something like itunes except for games... Pretty much you can buy and play your games through the program.. Any game you buy will be saved to your account letting you install it on any computer that you can access steam from. They also offer a good variety of free 2 play games and a rumor is going around that they will start offering software also. As for using blender inside linux I've never had any problems with it. Personally i think installing and setting it up is easier using linux. I currently run Windows 7 ultimate 32 bit backtrack 5 r2 linux mint 13 (mate)

It seems that this is a USB powered drive? From my experience external drives powered by usb are destined to fail. I would reccomend always getting external drives that are powered by their own power supply. You could probably buy a different enclosure that has ac/dc power and just swap the drive into the new enclosure.

All Thinkpads store the supervisor password in the ATMEL 24RF08 EEPROM, so removing the CMOS battery will just clear your CMOS settings leaving the password still on the BIOS so i wouldn't go this route.. http://www.tech-faq.com/reset-ibm-thinkpad-bios-password.html I was able to find this website that gives you a few options, I have never had to do this myself so i have no experience...Just happy share things that i find while lurking..

I read somewhere that "merlin" is a common backdoor password used by technicians at IBM. I dont know if this will help, but from what i've read it seems like a pretty tough computer to get into.

Hello all. So i just read an article today about a new gaming console in development, its called the OUYA and it will be the first fully open source gaming console. It will be running off of a Tegra3 quad-core processor and 1 GB of RAM. The operating system it will run off will be android 4.0. One of the best things i read about it, is that the console will be only $99 and the developers are encouraging people to open it up and hak it. Rooting the console to change the firmware will not void the warranty.. The link to the company's kickstarter page will be posted below. I would like to know what everyone else's views on this console are. Thank you http://www.kickstart...eo-game-console

Hello skimpniff... I was also running Ubuntu but i was at 11.10. I kept getting problems with the sidebar not going away and a little bit of lag... I went to distrowatch and learned about linuxmint... It is a great operating system. If you download the MATE version of it you shouldn't have any problems with it using you GPU... On the other hand if you download the cinnamon version you might find a few bugs(Cinnamon requires a higher end graphics card to work properly). But long story short I switched to Mint 2 weeks ago and haven't had any problems what so ever, its a lot easier to customize the appearance then it was on Ubuntu also.
