    [ubuntu] Re: More Broadcom wireless problems...

    I have been having problems with my wireless as well, but broadcom STA seems to be (most of the time) working with my bcm4311 card. Would b43fwcutter be the better choice? It's stresses me out when...
  2. [ubuntu] Re: Problem trying to install XP on partition

    Okay, weird. I think the installer might be putting boot.ini, NTDETECT.COM and ntldr in the wrong partition. Would that make sense? They have spontaneously appeared in my larger media partition twice...
  3. [ubuntu] Problem trying to install XP on partition

    This looks like I've accidentally come to the wrong forum...

    Anyway, I've got two 20 mb partitions that I formatted and tried to put xp on, (which of course overwrites my Grub, but I figured that...
  4. [ubuntu] Looking for simple, lightweight media player

    I've been running foobar2000 in wine, but I've noticed that it's sucking up an absurd amount of CPU, which grieves me. I tried out Deadbeef, but it doesn't have an available artist panel. Decibel...

    [ubuntu] Re: Ubuntu won't connect to my router

    After logging out and back in a couple of times, it's working again. I've been reading references to backports, should I install those? I'm really having a hard time telling.
  6. [ubuntu] Re: Wireless looses connection after some time.

    I'm having a similar problem, it has happened about 3 times now, but I can still connect to other networks. I shall subscribe to your thread.

    [ubuntu] Re: Ubuntu won't connect to my router

    Not sure what you mean. My router shows up in my wifi network, and when I select it it tries to connect, but fails.

    Also, I have a Windows install on another partition, and that connects just...

    [ubuntu] Re: Ubuntu won't connect to my router

    Yeah, it connects most of the time. The first time it happened, I reinstalled my broadcom driver, and that fixed it, but it's a nuisance. The last time it happened it just started working again. How...

    [ubuntu] Ubuntu won't connect to my router

    I've had this problem before, and it just went away, but it seems to happen periodically. What's weird is that it will connect to other wifi sources just fine, but not mine. Anyone have any idea what...

    [ubuntu] Bouncy url bar text

    So this isn't an earth shattering problem or anything, but when I type in Chrome's URL bar, the text bounces. I'd rather it didn't. Anyone had this happen, or have an idea how to fix it?
  11. [SOLVED] Re: Bar Buttons keep on dissapearing... :( :(

    This seems to just happen. As far as I have been able to tell, there is no cure. Just logging off usually brings mine back though, I don't think you need to restart.
  12. [ubuntu] Trying to design my own Window borders

    I'm finding the ones that are available a little bit thicker than seems necessary, plus it would just be awesome to design my own. The gnomelook documentation is a bit sketchy for me, can anyone...

    Re: Lucid Lynx working too well

    Banhammered! I was arguably asking for support.

    Thanks for the ideas! I've messed with the gnome themes a bit (I like Dust) but the emerald theme manager keeps crashing. I should fix that... I'm...

    You're probably right. Does that mean I've graduated from Absolute Beginner? Is there a certificate or anything?

    Re: Lucid Lynx working too well

    Well, I have it on a live disk. Either way, I'm not sure I have the desire to break something intentionally. If I couldn't fix it, I'd feel pretty silly.

  21. [SOLVED] Question about uninstalling virtualbox

    I somehow under-allocated hard drive space to Virtualbox, and as I have very little invested in the guest OS yet, it seems like it will be significantly easier to just start over than muck about with...

    yeah, I can see the network icon, and it will try to connect. I've had it get to the Password verification thing a couple of times, but it won't complete, it just spins.
