Hi, I installed Kubuntu onto my pc on Friday, it's generally going well, however I kept XP installed and partitioned my drive as I will need to use it for some programs for my degree, but when I turn my computer on or restart it my keyboard doesn't start working until after it has chosen to load up Kubuntu, I have tried it with a standard USB keyboard and also my Logitech wireless and neither will work until after Kubuntu has loaded. Is there anyway to resolve this? or a way to "switch" OS after kubuntu has loaded?
Secondly, all of my music is on the XP partition, I managed to get Amarok to recognise MP3s fine but now everytime I shut down and reload my pc I have to reload all the music back into Amarok, is there a way to stop this? or am I going to have to move it all onto the Kubuntu partition?
Which leads me to a final question, I have a "spare" HDD from our old family PC, what do I need to do to use it for additional storage for my PC? I got the pc from a friend who previously had another HDD inside it so the wiring is still there to connect a second HDD but if I wire it up what will I need to do to get it to work with Kubuntu?
Sorry for the nooby questions, I hope its all at least understandable.
