Linux, Gadgets and Multimedia. In ye olde days a Cyprianus was the Wizard's spellbook. As a rule a Cyprianus manuscript started with these words: "Even though Roboam knew all the secrets of our Art he did not abuse his knowledge. Do Thou likewise."

Yousee - Linux? No webtv.
Yousee really sucks big time. No Linux support for the web tv. Perhaps I should look for an alternative TV provider.

Boot problems
A Debian system would not boot. A file system check failed. The PC is around 6-7 years old. So perhaps the disk is old and sore.
Perhaps the whole system need a total makeover. I bought Linux Format downtown, and fired up a Slax in the RAM. The Slax file manager had mounted the local drives of the system. So by now my data could be saved.

- Format a USB drive for the backup.
- Back up all data in /home/ via rsync
- Install Ubuntu U.U. - KDE version.
- Restore via rsync.
Worked like a charm. It seems that my very old PC just needed a brush up.
