Video Conferencing

Now that some talk is going on about IT, social networking and Skype I thought I throw a Slashdot discussion in here. Someone asked about FOSS Multi-point Video Conferencing solutions. Maybe some of you are interested in that discussion. http://ask.slashdot.org/askslashdot/08/05/18/1546227.shtml

Have fun reading it ;)

DVD Subtitling

I was wondering if any of you guys have had experience on creating / adding subtitles to a DVD?

setting up a server

Hi folks.

We are very privileged and happy that our new hardware will arrive
soon. Mainly it's for backup but we all know that the possibilities are
almost endless. Non the less, the first goal is to get the backup
going. But since I'm not doing that everyday (setting up servers) I
thought I ask and see if you have some helpful hints for me.

Virtual Machine

I don't know whether any of you use Virtual Machines much? I have been mucking around with them for a bit and they can be great fun as you can set up a test operating system and play around with it. Most enable you to surf the net etc. I have been playing with VirtualBox and had a lot of fun.

when the remote connection is too slow....

Thanks to my brother in law I managed to get a remote connection to a Linux box in the office running. I had a couple of problems that I just couldn't get right. But then finally it all worked. Well, somehow. Everything was so slow that I could grab a cuppa after starting a program on the remote computer. Scrolling on a website took about 1 minute (no kidding!!) until "something" happened. So, what should I do?

JAJAH - has anyone tested it?

I think I vaguely remember when the service first started, but I did not pay much attention.

Ubuntu Studio released

Hi @ all.
Ubuntu Studio is available since about a week now. Also since then their websites (www.ubuntustudio.com, .org or .net) are mainly not accessible. At least at the time I wrote this. The wiki is no problem though.
Last weekend I tried to download it because I'm interested how it will look like and work since I'm not just a computer dude but also a sound techie. But it seems like the world is going crazy after Ubuntu Studio. I had an estimated download time of 54h. I thought I try to be smart so I checked BitTorrent as well. No difference there.
