I was under the impression...

Hello,

After rummaging in Synaptic, I would suggest this:

This is what I don't like about Ubuntu. No software like an email client should be part of the system. We should be able to remove it completely without any collateral damages.

Many thanks wojox...

Hello Ron O,

Best thing to do is launch Synaptic and search for Evolution. Mark various packages for complete removal and look carefully at what will be removed as well.

Many thanks to all on this thread, as I hope to make V200 work with Jaunty too.

What do you think?

I have read some threads but I'm not sure the installation and the network card are both okay or not, in the end.

Hard luck for me, ingo

So you're saying Xubuntu boots and loads normally but the login screen doesn't show up and instead an ugly screen tells you Xorg needs to be configured.

Or is it that you can get to the desktop...

Do you have compiz and all the 3D effects on? I heard that could cause some problems.

I have a similar problem but I have never edited my .bashrc file.

I've upgraded to Ibex through the net.

Here's part of the debug file:


Can you help me?

Hello,

I used to be able to record listen again programs with mplayer. You simply needed to get the url for the stream, and then:

Thanks for your reply, dublinfireman.
