So I finally got time to set up my dual boot with Windows 7 and Karmic (9.10) and must say that both are phenomenal. This is the first ubuntu install I've tried since 8.04 where Network Manager...

Ok, thanks for the help. I'll try the method(s) out once I get time :P

So here's my question: I have a Windows XP virtualmachine that I stupidly set as 8 Gigs when I made it. Needless to say, it's running out of space. Is there any way I can resize the "harddrive" of...

Just finished recompiling the drivers and all is well. Glad this was a just a simple little mishap. Thanks for the help everyone!

Ok, I'll try recompiling the drivers, as they definitely aren't from the repositories.

I installed the updates that were made available a few days ago (for 8.10 Intrepid) and discovered some abnormalities. The updates consisted of a new kernel (2.6.7-15 I think) and when I restarted,...

I remember hearing that about the motherboard, so I checked the specs of my laptop off Gateway's site, and it said it can support up to 4 Gb of Memory. Under BIOS, it has two sections that list...

If that's the case, is there a way to return it to "regular" memory?

I got some more memory for my lappy recently to upgrade it from 2 Gb to 4 Gb. Once it was installed, I checked System Monitor, but it said I only had 2.3 Gb (an increase of about 600 Mb, from 1.6). I...

ok, let me clear up a little. Fall semester of '08 I setup and installed a windows xp virtual machine on Ubuntu 8.10 using Virtual Box 2.4. After doing so, I also set up the usb filters for my vm, as...

I'll try the pdf printer thing so I can at least print my stuff. I don't think it's a samba issue though, because I had it working through the connection before. How would I check the samba...

I forgot to mention, I did install the drivers for my printer off Epson's website (prior to setting it up as a network printer) I was going to use the cd, but I unfortunately misplaced it :( I had it...

I need to get this fixed as soon as possible. I need to print from my Windows XP Virtual Machine (using VirtualBox 3.0.6). I have an Epson Stylus CX-8400. I've printed from the VM before with no...

I installed OCTGN (a card game program) on my Windows XP SP3 VirtualMachine today and wanted to play a game with a friend. When trying to join a game, the program quits (trying to join) almost...

Thanks for all the help guys! And @DownTown: I actually added the PhenomII X3 to my wishlist the other day :D

Thanks for the tips! :) But what's considered a "good" power source? There are some combo deals on Newegg with computer cases and power sources; would they be ok, or should I look for something more...

This may seem silly, but make sure you have the phone in discovery mode when searching for a bluetooth device. I don't run 9.04, so I'm not sure if the bluetooth method is different at all :P

Just from those specs, it will be *very* difficult to determine which would be more fit for Ubuntu. Some of the biggest things to look for when choosing a computer that you plan on running Ubuntu on,...

I'm planning on building my own desktop here in the next couple months or so, and I wanted a little advice on some components, mainly processor, wireless card, etc. Here's a basic breakdown of what I...

I'm not sure on the specifics, but ATI seems to have given a huge digital finger to all those using ATI brand cards released anytime before May :-/ So, that basically means that unless you end up...

Wasn't sure whether to put this in Networking & Wireless or not, but anyway...

So, I'm a little confused with Bluetooth with my phone. I have an LG env3 (LG VX9200) and Bluetooth works fine with...

Firstly, it'll depend on what graphics card you're using. Could you post the output of lspci (from a terminal)?

That would be a yes. A virtual machine in virtual box is basically another computer inside your computer. The only difference is, they're both using the same hardware components, so other than that,...

I was using GParted on the Jackalope 9.04 LiveCD. It makes sense for it to end up as empty, unused HDD space since I never lost anything. I'll try and give it a looking-at when I get the chance to...

I appear to have lost about 10 Gb of my harddrive. I have my harddrive partitioned to / and /home, 9.4 Gb for /, and (initially) 217 Gb for /home. A few weeks ago, I was trying to resize them to give...
