What is your first post?

[goobimama]

Here's something funny. This will especially be entertaining for the old users of this forum. See how n00bish you are.

My first post

anybody wanna sell systemworks 2005? PM or email...

I almost banned myself looking at that!

This one goes way back to the 1518th thread in this forum (the current ones come in at 92000+)

So, what's your first post? (Or second post if the first one is not entertaining…)

[MetalheadGautham]

how do I find it ? I clicked my user and selected find more posts by this user in my profile, but I could access only the last 1000 posts.

[goobimama]

Here's how I found mind. The "A year ago and older" thing might be optional.

[MetalheadGautham]

still no luck. I ended up finding a october 2007 post, but I joined earlier.

[praka123]

grub-install /dev/hda or grub-install /dev/sda?
try fdisk -l in chroot prompt.

It doesnt have a defualt option in it.
also even if i try changing the timeout and save it still shows 3 seconds at boot.

Please tell me how to change the boot timeout and set it default to ZenWalk.

A nooby question , no doubt

[narangz]

Here's mine. Not as noobish as I expected

[Kniwor]

My first 2-3 posts, they're all made in a matter of few minutes.... I had just registered on the digit forum, and posted in many many threads in about half an hour....

I would suggest u get a A64 3000+ venice.
MSI RS480M2-IL
atleast 1Gb ram.
and sata HDD

But it's important to know what ur budget is.

Replies to this question may vary from person to person, it also depends on what u are planning to use these laptops for.

If u care too much for battery life u are better off with a intel centrino,
Otherwise, i will strongly reccomend amd turion based laptops.

you can even order here
http://www.teka2z.com/

I would strongly suggest you to rething on ur memory. That memory is crap.

Apart from that, SLI is absolutely useless if u dont plan on using it.

I would suggest none of them, you should seriously consider purchasing a socket 939 AMD.

You would be better with a s939 3000+.

about the ram, please dont starve ur system and atleast get 512MB. The price difference is very less.


Also if u get MSI RS480M2-IL In case u plan to purchse a 3000+ then u will have ATI X300 GPU, integrated graphics, that should play almost all the games available at this time. (dont expect high settings)

[nish_higher]

My first post was n00bish abt a gprs enabled cellphone and i even gave my email id
and few others were related to a high end pc , which everyone thought was just a spam or whatever but i actually bought that , though it was anothr mistake

[Kenshin]

And the following reply to your post:

Hey, didn't u read the label of this section? It says HARDWARE DISCUSSION. ur post belongs in the SOFTWARE DISCUSSION !!!

ROFL

[Choto Cheeta]

No Broadband Reliance CDMA was the fastest available connection back then so yeah didnt read the label as dial up means bill based on mins

[goobimama]

I was a total n00b back then, in awe of Sr.Ultimate, Dr.Grudge, Nemesis, theraven, and a couple of others I can't remember. Would have won each and every NOTW, holding the record number of consecutive NOTW awards.

[din]

And how can you forget Sunny who always used to make fun of you two ?

Pallab eating Pulav

Goobi jakar Goobi kha

I still laugh remembering those yahoo chat room days lol.

Oh, what a coincidence ! You both became mods now !

[praka123]

I had a problem with moderators on the first days itself ...then there was a thread about " moderators on digit forums "

[nish_higher]

Reading those was fun

My first post was regarding Digit subscription. Not so interesting. My first real post on the forum was this:

http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/show...7&postcount=16

For Add/Remove, you need the sources mentioned in your "sources.list" ! CNR is like a central repository!

One big advantage that CNR has over synaptic/add-remove is that of UGC (User-Generated Content)! CNR has this feature where in users can post their comments/reviews about the packages that they download! If I remember correctly, Ubuntu has plans to implement something like this in their very own Add/Remove tool too

[goobimama]

I opened pandora's box!

@din: talking about sunny divyanesh? Didn't know he made fun of me.

[Faun]

I remember giving my Broadband account details to Choto Cheeta, that was a random guess, he had the same Neo avatar and my instincts told me to send a message to him.

Guess I wasn't wrong He helped me setting up the connection, then also told me to not to give such details to anyone.
