Use of Google adverts on DSL website

The use of Google adverts, so close to navigation menus and using the same font / background colour hinder the usability of the site.

Could you add a bit more space and a different background colour?

I joined the form a couple of days ago but I still can't submit a post?

Can you explain what is required before someone can post a questions.


Stall / Crash on boot up

I’m trying to get DSL 4.2 current to boot on my main windows PC (approx 1 year old).

When I boot normally on the PC I get two Penguins and then the process stalls.

In fail safe mode i get:

  • VP_IDE: Unknown VIA Southbridge disabling DMA

It works OK with a Knoppix live cd.

Is it possible to port what ever makes it work from Knoppix to DSL?

Is it possible to DIY by amending the iso?

-Thanks for your help
