Skype update
The new Skype for Linux is available here:
http://www.skype.com/download/skype/linux/
It works fine. The main problems we deal with are those of mic and pcm volumes muted in your sound controller or that your webcam is being used by some other application. 64 bit users please ensure you have the 32 bit libraries installed.
Please note that although Skype is free, it is NOT open source software. Only Skype engineers have access to the program. Not us! So let's all push Skype for an open source version. As a viable alternative to free video conferencing, take a look at either microsoft messenger (it's controlled by Kopete in Linux) or Ekiga which is a microsoft netmeeting clone.
Acer Wireless Update
All Acer Extensa laptops now incorporate the Atheros wifi chipset. For the old Broadcom users there is a new module too. OpenSUSE 11.2 recommended.
Seasons Greetings!
We would like to wish all our clients a very Merry Xmas and a prosperous 2010. Without you we could not spread the word of Linux in Spain.
Holiday support and consultation times: unless for urgent cases, we close 25th, 26th, 27th. December and 1st, 2nd, 3rd January 2010
Best wishes from all at LCB

Yahoo! closes Geocities
Yahoo has decided to shut down GeoCities today, rendering thousands of users’ home-pages unserviceable. Yahoo is probably doing this in order to follow its demise at the hands of its competitors. However, this basically leaves the normal guy, with his homepage, in the dark. Literally. After today all GeoCities’ homepages will no longer work, and the users’ content deleted irrevocably.
