Scuba Forum / UK Scuba / February 2005OT - Anyone hiring IT Staff????
Sorry for the OT post, but when needs must! Have just been made redundant, 1 year, 5 days after the last time! Anyone know of any jobs in computer networking going at the moment? Novell, Windows, Linux, Groupwise, a little exchange, firewalls, security etc. can probably deal with pretty much anything! Based London/SE If so plz mail me, Danny Normal service will now resume! The box said windows 98 or better, so I installed Linux Header is false, correct is Danny at danshome dot org > Sorry for the OT post, but when needs must! > > Have just been made redundant, 1 year, 5 days after the last time!

Oh, and a zillion other drivers weren't supported. And then applications worked with one version but failed on another, 'cos of gcc changes. Better?

Hehe - I think we've found a Linux fan! :O) >>>> The box said windows 98 or better, so I installed Linux >> [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > Hehe - I think we've found a Linux fan! :O) O come on. Linux is wonderful. It give you massses to talk about when you get together with your fellow geeks^H^H^Hurus down the pub swapping fixes and horror stories. In the world where people want to pay me money windows is assumed so windows they get. The last time we did anything different it was an IBM AIX system in the mid 90s. The main thing I remember about that was whenever you phoned support about a problem they said something like "that bug is already documented" and somehow assumed that that solved your problem. nigelH >>>The box said windows 98 or better, so I installed Linux > >And promptly found that wireless internet access didn't work, >and you couldn't write a CD or DVD.

My Linux Laptop plays DVDs just fine, accesses that interweb thing via a wireless card without any problems, my desktop writes CD's without any issues and can do all the photo & graphics editing I'm capable of, and runs my favouring desktop-deco software without a hitch... Games suck though! Gordon > Hehe...

My laptop can read and write CD's fine when booted into Linux, but a desktop PC has never been able to - reads them fine, but won't write. If anyone has managed to get wireless drivers for a vaio VGN-B1XP running Suse 9.0 I'd love to know, took long enough finding a way of hacking the video BIOS to run in native 1440x1050 mode. - Keith |
