Rocking Blogging: Rhythm Junction

Okay guys, You might have noticed, I have been spending a lot of time reading blog's. Today is no different, I stumbled upon this gem hosted on BlogSpot (the same as this blog), the blog is named Rhythm Junction, the author(s) seem to focus on rock music, namely bands like Iron Maiden, Black Sabbeth, Ozzy, Hendrix and Metallica (to name a few). It has a very user friendly layout, making it easy to track down what you're looking for. The author(s) has recently started posting more about general life, including a topic that I have been considering posting about myself, regarding the new trend of being paranoid of everything. So what say you head over to Rhythm Junction and check it out? :)

A World of information is here

Alright guys, so today I was browsing some blogs and stumbled upon Gvishnu.com, It's a blog based on a few things, Linux (I stumbled upon a great post detailing setting up a Linux/GNU server), life (a lot of philosophical stuff) and plenty of other subjects. The blog owner is based in Malaysia, which gives you I guess what could be called a third-person perspective on topics that we either take for granted, or don't pay much attention to (in my opinion anyway). So I suggest you guys go over and give it a good read, I did- and will be in the future. Happy travels guys,

Kiefer.

Come Visit Us!

Hey guys, once more a quick note (they seem to be getting quicker and quicker, I have noticed and Im sorry, I will post more in the coming weeks, I pr0m1s3z!) about where you can receive support, whether it be Ubuntu or any other distro, the two best places for general support are..

ubuntuforums.org
google.com (heh, Im sorry)

Or for live support, feel free to pop in to ##linux on irc.freenode.com we have a very large user base and provide 24/7 free support to anyone we can, come and say hi!.

RT73 (RaLink) Driver Installer

Okay folks,
I've noticed recently a lot of people have been having trouble with the 'RT73 Chipset' from RaLink (In Wireless devices from manufacturers like D-Link, Hawking, etc), I actually noted this a while ago when I first got my DWL-G122 Rev. C (D-Link) wireless dongle, obviously it only came with a Windows installer disk, so I had two choices, ndiswrapper or SerialMonkey drivers.
I opted for the SM Drivers and got to work, it took me almost two weeks to get it working (Hey, I really was a newb). So after a while i stumbled upon the note I had left for myself "write script to install rt73 devices". And thats exactly what I did, for several months it supported the Linux community well, until I became lazy with updating it (real life issues took precedence) and another Ubuntu user re-wrote the script, so without further ado, I give you The RT73-RaLink Device Installer.

Have fun and good luck!
