Ubuntu for dummies:

Aha, OK I see now - thanks. Well I installed Kubuntu using Wubi so not sure how I would even go about setting this all up, so I'll stick with Kubuntu for now - happy with it so far...

Ah, okay. No wubi equivalent for mint.

[hawker]

haha are you using it? Or did you just decide to post a random comment?

 

[d0b33]

I'm using it but how do I add local repos though? with ubuntu it is listed already but I need to add them in mint where do I get the list of local ubuntu repo addresses? I saw them here somewhere...

Edit: found it a few posts back

Using what? How would I go about streaming music and video over my wireless? Or is this just going to confuse the kark outta me?

Not streaming anything, I have the MCE remote and use IRKick to configure the buttons, it has options for Amarok included I just have to choose which button does what.
