Hurrah! :D
This is my xorg.conf. There are many others like it, but this one is mine. My xorg.conf is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my xorg.conf is useless. Without my xorg.conf, I am useless...

The whole time Fab was talking about garlic in the French legal system I kept thinking about how much it sounded like Dalek from Doctor Who.

Fab and Dan, I think you are missing the point about porting UbuntuOne to Windows. My main OS is Ubuntu, but I have another PC with Windows that I must use for my work (hope to get rid of it some day, but it won't happen soon). I use Dropbox to sync my files between the two, and to have them available via the web interface when I'm using other computers away from home (which I do almost every day). My Dropbox is filled with about 4GB out of the 5GB of the free account, and once I get it filled I'll be happy to pay for more. I should prefer using UbuntuOne and spending my money with Canonical rather then Dropbox, but it won't happen unless UbuntoOne syncs my Windows PC. I'm sure I'm not the only one with this problem. In fact, I'm willing to bet that many Ubuntu users also use Windows (at work) so this is a very important feature for UbuntuOne if it is to compete with Dropbox.
keep on rockin' in the free world

It's sad but true for a lot of people indeed. I tend to seperate my work laptop from my home stuff though. I am running Linux on my work laptop though. However this might change, because there is talk Windows 7 will be pushed on us :crap: :crap: :crap: :crap: :crap: :crap: :crap: :crap: :crap: :crap: :crap: :crap: :crap: :crap: :crap: :crap: :crap: :crap:

Sorry for misdirecting you. You are free to flog me verbally on the thing about the Fedora community manager, when I was in fact thinking about the Mandriva dude, who was employed by Red Hat after they fired him.
Thank you for mentioning the Debian event.
