    [ubuntu] Re: Why is it crazy slow??

    You definitely want to try a more lightweight variation...I noticed a noticeable lag when they came out with Unity a while ago and my machine was not that old or lacking in hardware.

    They've already given you some great links here...but from personal experience Ubuntu is very user friendly for the most part.

    [ubuntu] Re: Firefox Crashes

    Do you mean Chromium? or is there a regular Chrome for Ubuntu? I heard they were made by the same company originally.

    Have you tried the "Chromium" browser? It's really pretty decent. At least you'll be able to make sure it's just a FF specific issue and not a graphics or system issue you're dealing with.

    [SOLVED] Re: shortcut of desktop

    What I've done in the past is simply find the program or file and drag/drop it over...it seemed to work ok.

    Is it a shortcut to a file or a specific program you want as an icon on your screen?

    I've been in and around this forum since 2006 and for some reason my beans (post count) is stuck on 19. The only reason I noticed this was I went in to check my profile...
  10. Re: Now that the Unity hate has cooled down, how do you feel about the WM?

    Honestly I don't mind it but...I do miss the older simpler feel. All change requires a little bit of getting used to I guess.

    Re: Got my Beans Today!!

    Ok, so I have an odd question.

    Why is my bean count stuck on 19? It seems, I've read, to have something to do with the number of posts you've made on these forums.

    I've posted more than 50...

    Thank You Ubuntu
