I did try "sudo apt-get -f install" and the error message you see is what I got... until I closed Terminal and closed then reopened the Synaptic Package Manager. After that all went well. Now I...

I'm sorry, I forgot to tell how I fixed my first issue about the sun java plug-in. I had both Terminal and Synaptic Package Manager open. When I closed them and reopened Package Manager the update...

Okay, I got it fixed but now my sound is weird and the video is choppy. Hmm...

I'm having a heck of a time installing the sun-java6-plugin. I'm getting this error message when I tried to follow this threads instructions:

Yeah, this isn't working. I keep getting this error message: Unable to open 'x-nautilus-desktop:/%3CSaw_IV%3E.volume' I am at a loss here. I'm using VLC Player as Totem is not all that.

Many, many thanks for this thread. This particular scanner really stinks to install in Windows and after having a terrible time getting my Lexmark printer to work, I was a tad bit worried about my...

I got it to work!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Check it out at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters/LexmarkMultifuncPrinters followed it to the letter and viola!!!

I'm getting VERY frustrated and p.O.ed!! I'm about to throw Ubuntu out the door and never look back. I'm about to throw my ENTIRE PC out the door and move to Alaska and EAT SOME POISONOUS PLANT...

Yes it's fairly fresh. A couple days ago.

So now when I boot up my desktop gives me a window on top of a beige background that is searching for local server and then fails. It won't let me do anything except search for local server. What's...

Well, okay, I'm not going to install EVERYTHING... holy yikes! But I do wonder what'll happen...? Thanks you guys for your help

Well, Hardy's sort of onboard. I can only use my administrator account through failsafe GNOME (I did set up an account for regular use and can login normally through it although I can't install...

Howdy,
I've been fiddling around with Ubuntu since Fiesty Fawn and have crashed my PC a few times trying to partition and what not. I have recently gotten Hardy Heron installed INSIDE Windows but...
