Bump.

I found this thread on Google, and I was wondering how PanCiasteczko resolved this(if at all).

I have purchased a 7800mAh battery off ebay, like PanCiasteczko, for my Acer Aspire One...

nm-applet(which is what it's called) is a taskbar icon, rather than a dedicated GNOME applet. Think of it as an actual program that is running, like when you hide the contact list in Pidgin.

Yes, there is always a way :)! Drop to a console(ctrl-alt-F1), log in, then type metacity --replace --display=:0 &. Make sure you type the & symbol as well.

Basically, you're having metacity...

My system boots fine. However, usplash does not start up correctly or sometimes not at all. Today I booted up Ubuntu without changing it previously and all I got on the screen were vertical cyan and...

Also note that it is a bad idea to use sudo for startx as it doesn't help to use root to run an X session. Root should only launch the login manager(gdm).

After a successful reboot into a new version of Ubuntu, a popup should appear and ask the user if the user wants to re-enable some 3rd-party repositories the user may have set up. A selection window...

If sound is out of sync or other issues for OpenAL-based games(such as ioQuake3), try this.

Create a new file in your home directory called ".alsoftrc":

touch .alsoftrc
Then put "refresh =...

Just bumping the topic. I have installed apt-zerconf on 4 machines and one just had Ubuntu installed today and it updated to the latest packages 100 times as fast as regular downloading. apt-zeroconf...

I wish I could thank you for your Samba fix, but the icon is missing. I have been troubleshooting the Samba issue for months now.

But how does the client machine get the PXE if it doesn't know which machine to get it from? I'm under the impression that the client must be connected to the server directly.

Is it possible to do this behind a router, rather than directly connecting each computer?

I'm sorry, I don't have a pendrive large enough to even fit Ubuntu on and as I said I can't afford one. I need his computer to boot using PXE, load a kernel, then mount a chroot on my computer with...

My little brother uses another computer with Ubuntu 8.04 on it with a failing hard drive(and I don't have the money right now to buy him a new one). Before all data is lost, I want to know if it's...

Ok, it sounds like it's not even able to start X. Try using the recovery mode and try some of the options there. If all else fails try the root console mode in the recovery menu. If you can get to...

What video card are you using?

An article from way back in 2006.

Yes, it's possible. It would depend on what kind of proxy you're using.

I'd need a little bit more info to help more.

You should be able to enable it through the Hardware Drivers application.

You would have to open whatever port it uses on Firestarter, generally port 21 for would be for FTP, though some sites might use a different port.

You can easily find out on the command-line with the "lspci" command. If I knew which card it is maybe I could do some research on it...

It dies with... what? Error message?

The Ubuntu repository. Just search for them in Synaptic.

There are several Logitech configuration tools, like logitech-applet and lomoco. I don't think they check battery info, but it's worth a try. Both are packages in the repository.

Try --mode 640x480. That should get it working at least with a standard resolution. If that works, try higher resolutions with --mode.

You might be trying to load the BIOS at the wrong time and loading one of Windows' troubleshooting menus instead.

Some Dell machines have bios' that don't display any "Press the 'X' key to enter...
