Having more browsers build on top of the Mozilla's code base can eventually only a good thing, and thus I can hardly wait for the next company or group of devoted developers to do things differently....

Are these two buddies going nuts on your system?

/etc/xdg/autostart/trackerd.desktop
/etc/xdg/autostart/tracker-applet.desktop

You can disable them one by one by adding: Hidden=true to these...

+1 (the reference to AMD here is not only misleading, but also very silly).

Despite what some people say here, and the fact that I am using the 64 bit edition of 9.04 myself (this after having used the 64 bit editions of 8.04 and 8.10) I would advise you to go for the 32 bit...

Let me start by stating that I am a huge fan of VirtualBox, but the lack of CoverFlow for iTunes forced me to install VMWare, and boy am I glad that I did it, yet I won't remove VirtualBox ;)

To update/squeeze bugs out of the iPod?

Installing iTunes in VirtualBox (no coverflow support in iTunes) or the VMWare player (full coverflow support in iTunes) will also enable you to get new...

I assume that you want to purchase new songs from time to time, right?

Which I'm afraid won't work with other software, so please install (ask for) VirtualBox (note: no CoverFlow support in...

Not if you want CoverFlow support in iTunes, which currently only works with VMWare's player/workstation editions.

p.s. Just to be sure; how/which version of VirtualBox did you install?

What hardware (CPU/memory/etc) do you have? Running Ubuntu 32 or 64 bit? Which Ubuntu version are you using?

Note: iTunes works very well in VirtualBox (without CoverFlow support for iTunes)...

Eh, I don't understand this. I mean; what questions did you need to answer? I even downloaded iTunes two minutes ago, but I wasn't asked to answer any questions!

I personally never tried iTunes in Wine, but I can tell you this; iTunes works in VirtualBox (no cover-flow support however) and VMWarePlayer which also offers cover-flow support (I personally can't...

To answer your question, like "hanzomon4" did earlier, no there is no official version of iTunes for Ubuntu, neither for any other Linux distribution. The reason for this is simple; Apple copyright...

I like to add that we located the problem, which turned out to be unrelated to Ubuntu since our distribution server, used to distribute Ubuntu 8.10 AMD64 to our clients, was having some memory...

I personally am yes, but I am unaware of any problems related to this. Can you please shed some light on the matter?

Thanks!

p.s. Merry Christmas for everyone here!

Correction: I am NOT...

Correct.



Sure, there is nothing wrong in using it, and so we did without any problems whatsoever. The point is that I want this problem solved, without going back to a previous version.


...

1: We did test 8.10, but the 32 bit edition only. Not testing the amd64 edition has never been a problem for us. At least up until now.

2: Going back to 8.04 is not a real solution, and I am sure...

We have a large number of Ubuntu installations, like over 7000 world wide, and Ubuntu 8.10 apparently has some serious performance problems; because our users are complaining, one after the other,...

Thanks, but there is no /etc/init.d/apache
but /etc/init.d/apache2 and there are no errors whatsoever.

Apache is running fine, and the problem was that the upgrade script replaced some of my...

I finally gave 8.10 a go one of my computers to 8.10 but I wish I did because it started with video card/driver problems, which I fixed.

Then my canon lbp500 printer wouldn't work anymore, and now...

I also ran into a few annoying problems, but I won't revert back to 8.04 and I won't advise you to do this, but instead I like to see this kind of issues fixed/resolved. Don't you?

Please note...

The best thing people can do is to be cautious, and at all times.

The good news is that Mozilla will change the world once more; because we are writing something that will eliminate the need for...

Hi guys/gals,

Sure, there are anti-virus software kits available for GNU Linux OSes like Ubuntu, but the question is not why you need them, but when.

Installing anti-virus programs might, or...

Ugh, which I obviously missed with my old dyslectic eyes. Sorry.



First; I personally don't use any add-ons (extensions) at all, but I know that Flashblock implemented "Click-To-View" (an idea...

Your understanding of the term "spyware" seems a bit rusty so here's a link for you to freshen it up again:
