That is correct, I do not get a boot menu. It does not boot straight into windows. It is not the grub menu that I am seeing. All I am seeing is what I posted in the original message. I do not know...
Two years ago I installed 12-04 along side windows 7.0. It has been running well until today. When it got to the grub menu, I started linux and it displayed a message on the splash screen which...
I downloaded the file "install-crossover-13.0.1.bin". How do I install it? I am running 12.04 LTS. Need any more info?

Well, it turns out Synaptic Package Manager, even after updating, doesn't find anything about fingerprint. And Polkit looks like a policy manager for KDE. I use Gnome classic, so I didn't install...
I would have thought they would come pre-installed, but I'll look for them and install them.
Thanks.
Does anyone know how to activate the fingerprint reader?
Thank you so very much. Exactly what I was looking for.
I bought a new Bonobo Extreme this week and I have several questions. I must be missing the documentation that tells me how to vary the brightness and colors of the keyboard lighting. Neither do I...
I bought a new laptop this week with Ubuntu 13.04 pre-installed. I installed my favorite solitaire game (Pysol) and it didn't appear in the games menu. It always did in previous versions of...
I installed Virtualbox and installed WinXP in Virtualbox. Everything seems to work except when I resize the VB window the XP display doesn't change with it. Is this a VB problem or an XP problem?

Thanks. I'll check it out.

I will be buying a new PC with Ubuntu 13.04 pre-installed on which I will install classic Gnome. I would like to run windows in a virtual machine. To be sure that we are all on the same page, that...

That post did the trick. It's too bad that things have to be solved by such hidden commands that should be fixed by simply unchecking a box on a list. Thank you so much for your time.

I am using 12.04. I have discovered that when I remove a program from "applications/system tools/preferences/startup applications" and restart my system, the removed program is back in the list. I...
Thank you so much. I don't remember what I searched on, but your options worked a lot better.

I was looking for a news reader to replace Google reader today. I found eight of them. I don't have enough experience to install anything from a packed file and most of them come that way. Do you...
I have good news. I remembered I have an external wireless antenna for use in RV parks where I am some distance from an antenna. I didn't think of it because I have a good signal without it. I...
[QUOTE=DuckHook;12505323]The example from the linked post was specific to the poster's own network. You have to change:
1. the "ESSID" to that of your RV site's,
2. the "channel" to the one your...

Yes, I have connected to 2 out of 4 wireless networks since we started this trip. Last summer's trip, I connected to all 10 or 12 networks. My guess is an update has messed with me but...

I tried doing the terminal thing suggested by the link. The first step was:
$ iwconfig
You will see wireless adapter as wlan0 or ath0 which depends on what driver is installed

We are spending the winter in our RV and occasionally move from one RV park to another. Normally when you register at the park, they give you the wireless password if there is one. We have been in...
Your concern is valid. Having both types of Kindle, I can tell you the early black & white Kindles are no good for viewing pictures. I also purchased a Kindle Fire HD recently and it is wonderous. ...
Unfortunately that is the help file from v2.2 which is what I suspected. The good news is I found a book about gnucash on Amazon. The bad news is it's not a kindle version, but I'll live.

Does anyone know where I can find a current Gnucash manual? I have the sense that the tutorial that comes with v2.4 is a little behind. When you get to the part about entering transactions, nothing...
