I got myself a new PC with a Nvidia 8600GT graphics and since this card is not yet supported with the Ubuntu restricted drivers I wasn't sure how to get it working. One option is to use a little program called ENVY (which some people don't like as they say it can do nasty things to your system if things go wrong, I don't know, I chose not to use it). The other option is to install the latest nvidia driver manually. This guide will tell you how to do that (it should work for all new 8 series nvidia cards that are not supported by the restricted drivers manager).
If this guide doesn't work for you I would suggest you try ENVY and see if it solves the issue.
All this problems are solved in Ubuntu 7.10 where the Restricted Drives Manages works without poblems with Nvidia 8600GT. Is this guide is useless as its very easy. I sujjest that if you have Nvidia 8600GT you use the latest release i.e 7.10.
Good luck.

Do you want to try the new Skype 1.4 Beta version? Skype 1.4 brings the sound quality on par with the Windows and mac versions. Still no video but its a step forward. It has new GUI which you might like or not but it definitely works better on my Feisty then the old version.

Do you miss Photoshop in Linux? GIMP is great but many people preffer Photoshop as they are used to it or miss some of the features that Photoshop has to offer. If you are one of those people and would like to run Photoshop through WINE on your Ubuntu box, here is how.
