  5. i think someone had a similar idea using lightning
  6. could be a fleet of ships. and the death star was the size of a moon so whos to say it cant be the size of a sun? it could act as a mothership
  7. some of them had mozilla, but for some reason most of them had there hard drives wiped. deleted all our animation projects too.
  8. i have an awesome book about dragonology. called "dragonology" it is based on thereoes of dragons and different types etc. i'd like to hear about the science behind the fell beasts and eagles. as well as the orcs, uruk-hai, and trolls and mumakil and why elves are more adept than humans

  10. luckily through geek rebellion, my school downloaded firefox onto all its computers. most people dont even realise what it is though.
  11. i thought they were a glitch in the time and space continuim
  12. i was able to figure out were to configure it from. however i dont have the booklet telling me the specs about my computer in a lot of detail. are their any sites that have this availible? its a dell dimension 2400. and is there a site that could get the horizontal and vertical sync rate?? thanks.
  13. (Oops) im going on what i heard on other responses in different forums on linuxquestions.org: well, you have to provide correct refresh rates for your monitor. your xorg is not correctly configured. best you can do is to try to connect in a root console. I don't know about how to do that in ubuntu, but if someone can tell you here, do that, than when you are root (superuser) type 'xorgconfig', hit the enter key and answer the questions you'll see on screen. have your monitor specs ready and when prompted, enter them. hopefully at reboot you will avoid this annoying message. and on ubuntuforums.org: You need to edit the "Monitor" section of your xorg.conf file. Make sure that the HorizSync and VertRefresh values are correct. At the command line enter this to edit the file by hand: Code: $ sudo nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf the latter comes up with as an unrecognized file command. and im not sure what to do.
  14. i just installed ubuntu (hoary hedgehog) and when i start up the computer it says "Sync. out oF Range" in a red box that moves across the screen. when i press the power button it goes back to login for a few seconds, then shuts down. How can i easily fix this? i know it has to do with the monitor refresh rate, but imi not sure exactly what to adjust. thank sin advanced
  15. i ran it in safe mode and it was fine. however i cant get internet and the pixels are way too big and cant be adjusted. im defraging now. does this mean its a software problem?
  16. i found a lot of dust clogging the vent and fan and cleared some of it out. i dont think its an overheating issue though. i checked and the fan is running
  17. the computer was making "clunking" noises so i stopped using it. its ok in that respect now
  18. I just started using a computer that hadnt been used in almost a year. the first day it worked fine, but the second day i used it, it took almost a half hour to load msconfig and most other programs take longer if they load at all. i though i heard one of the internal components restart but the computer didnt reboot. is this a hardware problem like overheating? or do i just need to defrag the drive?
  19. Which firefox plug ins do you find the most usefull?
  20. the pictures are jpegs. i didnt change the card format
  21. Oops! now i feel quite the fool. would there be software that could recover them?
