  2. [ubuntu] Re: Small White Bar over Menus and Launcher

    I'm getting this on Precise. Recently it happened as a Chrome desktop notification appeared. For now
    unity --replace will make it go away. We need to find out if a bug has been filed for this.

    [ubuntu] Re: Headless server won't load GUI...

    To be fair, while I did rant a bit myself, this thread is an exception IMHO. In particular, the Tutorials & Tips subforum has some very good and well-documented step-by-step instructions.

    Re: Map Windows Shares Permanently with GVFS

    Looks like you're using "backticks" or some other special characters instead of double quotes. Try this:


    gvfs-mount "smb://bob/data (d)"

    Notice the vertical alignment of the quote symbols.

    Re: Map Windows Shares Permanently with GVFS

    I think there's a new bug going around, possibly with 9.10, that's making this process more difficult than it was in the past. I'll update this thread when I've had a chance to do some testing.
