You can also try to edit the grub menu and  boot with vesa to get the system up.  Press "e" and add xforcevesa to the kernel boot line. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
To remove the closed source ati drivers: sudo apt-get remove xorg-driver-fglrx


https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=grubmenu.png

It doesn't look like the broadcom kernel module is being loaded?.. try sudo modprobe b44 and
sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart

You should have something like this in your /etc/network/interfaces:

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

Yes, you are absolutely right.. It will not make your boot times faster etc

As for few minutes of testing it does work Ok - Openoffice opens in ... 2 sec on eeepc (on 600 MHz - eeeasy scripts normal mode - 600 MHz /?/)!

That isn't so bad smile

So what's preload?
preload is an adaptive readahead daemon that prefetches files mapped by
applications from the disk to reduce application startup time. (taken from the man page, lazy me..)

Installing:

sudo apt-get install preload

That's it!

preload will run in the background, and collect all its data and perform its magic.

Config file: /etc/preload.conf

http://sourceforge.net/projects/preload/

I have uploaded the two standard versions.

I got one (or  two) servers I can host them on, until the storm rides off smile

purge deletes the configuration files

Go to windows share, and then fill in the info. ( GUI Path: Connect > Service type > Windows Share )
Example:

You can get an overview over your network samba/win shares with the "smbtree" command:

I would like to connect to \\IBM-5FC4E19940F\SIEĆ
where or how can I get the server name or adress (is this - \\IBM-5FC4E19940F        LAB - its name?)

is (yours) my_share in my case \\IBM-5FC4E19940F\SIEĆ?

Domain: - in my case is MSHOME?

and also when running gigolo do I need samba + extras or smbnetfs?

I like this Gigolo, but can't get connected sad


In your case the input will be something like this:
Server: IBM-5FC4E19940F (I prefer to use the IP address)
Share:  SIEĆ
Domain: MSHOME

You shouldn't need to install any extra packages, perhaps gvfs-fuse, if it's not installed already.

Try burning the iso to a CD, does your system run a old Athlon CPU (k8)? I think unetbootin has some issues with some ati/amd chipset . Also try to check your BIOS if  APIC is turned on, if it's possible.

You can try the vesa driver, and see if that helps, open the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and change the driver section:

Section "Device"  
Identifier "Videocard0" 
Driver "vesa" 

Also you can check the Xorg server log file. Look for (EE) or (WW) in the log file, (EE) means error and (WW) Warning.
