Double post

i did forget something: can the LiveCD run on Mac's? (Apple Computers if you don't understand)
although the laptop i use is a Windows XP PC, my Mum has a MacBook and i was wondering if it would work off there

.exes are only for windows, the liveCD comes with a few open source programs you can install on windows if you insert the liveCD while in windows. I guess its to promote open source or something, but really I don't know why they have it on there. It was really helpful for me though, when I needed to read a .pdf, and had no internet connection or means of reading a .pdf file, I popped in the Kubuntu liveCD and installed Scribus.

Sorry to revive this old thread, but i have one random question:

on the Ubuntu LiveCD, can you install programs? (even if its just temporary. ie uTorrent/BitTorrent etc just to get one file if I'm on the LiveCD and can't be bothered switching back to windows just to get a small torrent file)

I would d the full install except that I can't for the life of me figure out how to get my wireless adapter to work on it.

sorry but i didn't understand double you tee eff you are on about Hahaha

I can't figure out how to make it work with my wireless network. It shows the wireless network, I try to connect, and then it just stops. How can I fix this? If I could get that to work I would do the full install in a heartbeat.

does your internet connection have WEP or WPA etc security?

Chroma · 01/06/2007 11:16 PM
