Again, in my "partner" section I see no listings for canonical; which I have been lead to believe is the repository I need to allow. I do have two listings, but I believe one is from a failed...

Do to a host of problems with this install of Ubuntu, the first of which I have since forgotten, I have been instructed to "enable partner repositories." A couple of hours of searching has led me to...

I turned my computer on today with some trepidation. However, I was greeted by an auto-update for Adobe! It was uber-simple and as far as I can tell everything went fine, I'm now updated to...

Alright, I've checked my plugins and it seems that I've done something to completely screw up my Adobe Flash Player installation. It appears that the plugins are the most likely culprit, so I've...

Hey guys & gals!

Living in a consumer culture I can't help but look down at my fantastic Nexus 4 phone and wonder, will a newer model be "better." I know the answer to the question is, no, at least for a few years....

No music, no youtube, no...anything. I just installed Ubuntu 12.04 a couple of days ago, I've been busy installing all of the programs and add-ons that I want/need. Anyways, I'm looking for possible...

Hey guys and gals, relatively new to Ubuntu. I created a dual boot with Windows 7 about 6 months ago, but I never really used Ubuntu due to some bugs and a lack of understanding. I have since...

Love 'em. I've had an unhealthy obsession with fractal art since middle school and these fall right in line with what I love to see. Keep up the good work.

Years ago it was IE and FF. But then, I think ebay's label printing service or something similar didn't work with either browser, which got me to give Chrome its chance. Been using Chrome as my...

Not at all interested. It seems so uselss as a phone relay. If it were a stand alone phone on the wrist, then maybe. Plus, add some of Sony's water-resistant coating and then I'll be a bit more...

If "time served" is any indication of my favorite game I think it would be a close race between "Halo 2" and the old "StarCraft." The last time I was on Bungie's website I could still see that I had...
