I have had many problems with Glipper on Hardy. I can only recommend Parcellite. A package for Ubuntu is available on its web site: http://code.google.com/p/xyhthyx/

When I switch from the proprietary ATI driver to the VESA driver, the problem disappears. No doubt where the problem lies.

Are we the only ones experiencing this, or is a double xorg process the...

I can confirm this here, also with an ATI card. I guess this is a driver problem.

Hello,

on my Ubuntu 8.04 system, Xorg is showing up in two processes:

xfwm4 works great - it's fast, and has lots of features... and best of all, it fixes my problem!

But... there's a but here... it introduces new problems... compatibility with the taskbar......

Perhaps the title is a bit misleading. What I meant with the taskbar, was the "Opening..." thing mentioned - thing "opening..." while they're actually already opened.

Thanks for your xfwm4...

Hello,

I am using Dapper as a student, and I work with documents, images, audio.... things that require a well-structured file system, a good filemanager, and seamless window-management. With...

On my machine Dapper works excellent. I can't really, and you'll have to believe me, feel the performance boost that many had predicted, but it's definitely smoother in terms of software - GNOME 2.14...

For me, Breezy was the reason why I after eight years of moving back and forth between Linux and Windows, finally (and hopefully for good) settled in Linux. Not that Breezy changed everything, but...

Thanks for a great tip.

I have the same problem here.

Today on OSNews I found an interessting file system comparison between ext3, XFS, JFS and ReiserFS (v3).

The conclusion:

Thanks again for your great packaging work, kleeman! Works magnificantly this time also.

Have the pmount issues from earlier kernel compilations been fixed?

Well, as far as I know, this is also possible with apt. http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html

But does perhaps the ports system - of which I have heard many...

Or simply download EoG 2.14 and compile it on Breezy. I have made a deb for it here also:

I use them both, actually. For simple file operations, when I want something done in a hurry, or for the dialy double-click and document-handling, I use Nautilus.

I've been using Breezy now since September, and I'm really satisfied with it. I would say, that it takes a few months (at least for me) to get fully comfortable with an OS (or a distro) - since for...

I generally like Konqueror, but sometimes, when using it in Kubuntu (the 3.5.1) it suddenly crashes, just vanishes. For example when doing a many tasks in the same window - ie. PDF viewing, web...

I disagree. In my experience Eog does the job. I don't need various options for altering the pictures - I want to see them, present them, and in a quick way. I cannot use the scroll wheel to zoom...

Yes, all the time, actually, and that's because Gaim 1.5 can't transfer P2P but has to go via a Microsoft server.
