Running Ubuntu 11.04, classic on a Dell Inspiron 1520 laptop

I find when I boot up @ home, the keyring login screen appears (once), but when I travel (every week) I do not see the pop-up for the...

I also noticed a BIG difference between 10.10 & 11.04, & then switched back to Classic hoping it would make the difference. It didn't.

Ubuntu Natty 11.04 with Classic Ubuntu (I don't care for Unity)
DesktopNova 0.8.0

I ran it in 10.10 with no issues, but now at every boot I have to go into DesktopNova & manually start the daemon...

Well, Vivek's solution worked,....until I rebooted, then the touchpad is working again, so, I'll move on to Rummy's solution.

I have started with this solution. Now if only it "sticks". If later the touchpad goes back to working on it's own, I will try the next option.

Thanks so much for all the great responses. This...

Ubuntu 10.10

I tend to hit my touchpad while typing, so I prefer to disable it. I had it disabled in 10.04, but after upgrading to 10.10 it doesn't seem to work anymore.

I also downloaded the...

Wish it were that simple. The page isn't available on the internet, it's only on the local network & before I get access to the internet you have to click on their "Accept" button.

I travel (A LOT), in most hotels & airports that offer free WiFi, there is usually a re-direct page on which you must click on the "Accept" button for their (BS) terms...

I have dual-boot on mine, (Windows installed 1st), but wanted to run a windows app while Ubuntu was booted, so I installed VirtualBox & loaded win7 on it. Works great! Maybe it will work for you...

Well I stumbled onto it.

I WAS running VirtualBox OSE (V2.3) & went to the VB site & downloaded VB 4.0. Once I installed it (un-installed OSE 1st) it then told me I needed Guest Add-ons. Once I...

I agree it SHOULD be there, but it isn't. The VB manual also told me to try to map it like a network HD, that failed too.

I even deleted the mapped shared folder (with the guest OS shutdown) &...

I am running Ubuntu 10.10 for my host OS.

I set-up VirtualBox OSE with Win 7 Ultimate 64 Bit as my Guest OS.

My system is a dual-Boot on a 750GB HD, 50GB for Win7, 80GB for Ubuntu & the...

That worked!!

Thanks Frogs Hair

OK, I installed a file utility called "4Pane" but it changed the way the "Places" folders, (documents, videos, etc) works. Now instead of opening a folder to bring up the contents, it opens 4Pane. ...

Upon boot into Ubuntu, I get (2X):

OUTSTANDING!!! That's what I had stumbled into before. Thanks!

By simply deleting the existing bookmarks, then navigating to the folders I wanted to be on the "Totem Pole" & clicking "Add...

Thanks guys,

I thought that got it, but I modify the file, save it, close it & re-open to verify the changes, but the "Pictures" link does not change. Upon re-boot, the file gets re-written back...

I had found this before, but can't seem to stumble across it now.

I keep a separate partition for my data (Pictures, Music, Documents, etc) & want the "Pictures" item in the Places Menu to point...

I tried Drapes & was not happy with it. I like DesktopNova, but I have to manually stop & re-start the server every time I boot my system.

Any body else seen this?
