My Thinkpad X230 came without Wifi. I just tried an Kinivo BTD-300 and it didn't work. Am looking for a known to be good USB bluetooth adapter.

Am trying to create a public SAMBA file share that allows both Windows and Ubuntu users to read/write/delete/create files and folders.

Windows users can read/write/delete with no issues. An Ubuntu...

@Cheesemill thanks on that. The whole Intel driver upgrade was pointless and regretful.

BTW, incase anyone else is having issues with external monitor switching when docked, I was able to...

It seemed that the various events that led up to this Gnome-shell login issue (there was an error regarding a partial-upgrade somewhere in there) had some uninstalled Gnome-shell. I reinstalled and...

I am running 13.04 Gnome version with 3.8. All was running fine until today when I tried to install the Intel Graphics driver installer. I also made a tweak because of issues with Citrix icaclient. I...

Yes am running 3.8 and realize that this is the problem. 3.8 is definitely buggy so I may need to abandon.

Hate Nautilus. It seems that Nemo is dependent on Cinnamon and that there are incompatabilities between it and 13.04. Is there a way around this?

Thinkpad x230 + Ultrabase and External monitor, 12.04 w/Gnome shell. I will admit to living dangerously and took the SSD out of my former X201 and moved it into the X230. All is seemingly working...

I have 12.04 64-bit installed on my Thinkpad X201. I just got a new TP X230. Is it OK to just move the hard drive to the new machine? are there any precautions I should take?

Thanks on the vboxtool didn't know about it, but was already planning on using phpvirtualbox... I am planning on doing my build with 12.04 server and going headless. I purchased a 2 drive array eSATA...

I'm thinking of going headless, so thanks for the script. I'm waiting for the RAM and SSD to show up, but will hopefully build this next weekend.

I do to on the desktop for everyday use... can you recommend how to properly script having vBox load at startup?

I'm most comfortable with Virtualbox, so I'm going to give a shot at doing a headless setup. I'm also going to see if I can make this work on my Dell Optiplex 755 by adding some RAM (get it to 8 GB)...

Proxmox looks good, but would prefer to find something with no cost. If I'm reading their website right, theirs is a subscription model.

We have a lab box that's currently running Win2k3. That server has WAMP on it, but also some virtual machines that are beginning to cut into its resources. I would like to P2V the machine, and...

Thanks for all of that, but still no go... I have tested this with LiveCD, so my hardware definitely supports this...

I will probably have to bite the bullet and reinstall from scratch... Upgrades...

Unity and Cinnamon Desktops work properly, but Gnome Shell presents me with wallpaper and one of my startup apps with undecorated windows (e.g. no controls and title bar/borders). I can log out using...

I was hoping to use the TopIcons Shell Extension with my 12.04/Gnome Shell 3.4 setup, but it seems that 3.6 is required. When I went to upgrade to 3.6, I ended up with 3.5.4 and none of my extensions...

Tried an inplace upgrade a few months ago from 12.04-->12.10 and never properly booted. I got a blank screen. I had cloned prior to the upgrade so I was able to easily reinstall.

Am running a...

I purchased a Monoprice VGA-->HDMI adapter (my Thinkpad X201 laptop only has VGA out). 12.04 displays via the box, but only gives me the option of 800 x 600, or 1024 x 768. Straight VGA cable to...

Turns out that the machine's root was out of disk space. The hosts thing had nothing to do with it. Somehow stuff had accumulate deep in the trash at root and home levels. Once I cleared that out,...

Am running 11.10 64-bit with Gnome-shell. Something happened late Friday whereby my machine never gets to the login screen. I do get to an Ubuntu splash logo, after that I get a text screen that it...

Did you ever figure this out? I though I had this working, butt when I went to start a meeting today, same audio issues as you. I just tried installing Firefox via PlayonLinux, and the meeting center...

I was looking to reduce the font size and make it less bold, which I was able to do. The side effect is that the size of the "active" app icons that appear in the panel are too large for the size of...

Did you ever come up with a solution for this?
