Kubuntu has Kopete pre-installed, so using Kopete would be the best option. __________________________________________________________ Yahoo! India Answers: Share what you know.

Krishnakant, please quote your messages correctly. The usual way is as I have done above, with an attribution line saying who wrote the portion I'm quoting, and a relevant excerpt set off by the '>' sign. With some spacing so it's easier to read. (I know others here don't put spacing between quoted material and their reply. That makes all the text run together, hard to read. Believe me, if it's not easy to read I'm not going to.) -- Satya. http://www.thesatya.com/ Discoveries are made by not following instructions

But u could customize knoppix easily. ok here is what I need. the system will be a cli no graphical desktop involved. and it is also going to have a simple program which is menu driven, no bash. and of course the festival screen reader. and I want the kernel also to have very limited modules.

I'd rephrase that as : "WHAT (reach Corp/Govt desktops) and HOW (via schools)". Many (commercial) software companies have special discounted pricing under the "academic/educational" category. This comes from their market-researched and calculated view to capture students/learners early in their lives. When these users reach corporate or government desktops in their careers they tend to specify/use the software tools they are already exposed/familiar (from their school/study days). I've continue to do my 2p worth to promote open standards in both those spaces, when I teach, and when I consult. So far having more success with the former than the latter (wrt desktops). --- vkb

I use Ubuntu 6.06 on my cheap (<Rs.35K) laptop. (Acer TravelMate 2410, Celeron 1.4GB, 256MB, 40GB) BTW with Ubuntu6.06 on this laptop, except for WinModem, all the hardware on this laptop works and was/is usable without any special procedures.

Alsamixer does not show all sliders.
by Nadeem M. Khan 19 Sep '06

19 Sep '06

Hi. Continuing with my sound woes with suse 10.1... My alsamixer does not show all controls. it shows only pcm and capture. There is no "main" control. I am not able to play sound at max volume. I think the hidden "main" slider is the reason for that. My sound card as detected by alsaconf is "snd-hda-intel". Any pointers? Regards, NMK.
