I'm posting from...Linux!

Ubuntu, in VMware! Go me, something I never thought I would do!

This is very interesting. Read a couple of threads, people saying to use Mint or Debian to start off with but thought I'd go with Ubuntu.


So people... what can I do? Where shall I go from here?


p.s. if I had enough space of my hard drive I would have installed separately and not in a VM, but I don't right now so this will have to do for now.

You can do anything you want to do.

What do you use your windows pc for? The only thing linux lacks is gaming.

Everythingggggggg.

Format your HDD and install Linux.

Try to create your Windows environment using Linux apps.

I would, but I can't be bothered going through the hassle of sorting out all my music and docs etc to back up right now.

Well I've managed to knacker it already.

Trying to install Nvidia drivers via this method

after the 'log out' stage, it just gets stuck in tty1.

Been trying what it says here... clicky, I've uninstalled the current Nvidia stuff but it still gets stuck there.

Any ideas folks?

makes sense I suppose. Thanks for the help guys. Will try free up some space on another hard drive and install it on there.
