I want to install Ubuntu alongside Windows 7, using some free space I left. But how do I manage that free space? Earlier, you could select the size of how big you wanted Ubuntu to be during the...

Well I'm having big problems here as well. When I installed the - apparantly tested - nVidia drivers, the resolution went back to a horrible 640 x 480 or even smaller. You can't almost navigate at...

I don't get why it's so popular nowadays to waste as much space. Having the profile over the post, and having tons of empty grey space between the username and join date. Hopefully it will change to...

I have a second screen attached by VGA, and like you here, fullscreen applications (like Steam games) automatically open in the second screen. There isn't a way to set a standard screen in Ubuntu,...

igodspeed, the Ubuntu Unity Plugin category should be under Desktop.

I also do thank for the topic and answers, made the sticky edge less sticky. ;)

Happens on a fresh live install run as well. Same system. No drivers enabled by me, just everything run by default. Only happens in Software Centre.

Hard to know which topic to follow, but I am getting EXACTLY this. The windows go mental if you try to drag them over to another workspace when cubing, only to return to their original position. And...

The answer is to downgrade? :(
I get choppy zooming, not any other effects are bad (as I can see), but the zooming is horrible! Latest Ubuntu version (12.10).

You. Are. Brilliant.

I apologise for this necrobump, but this person has to be thanked!

Yes, that's it! I was reading a Netbook review :)


Ah, THERE it is! I hadn't even tried the filter, didn't know it worked like that. That's what I wanted! Thanks!

snowpine: Just the games that...

snowpine: Only FreeCell Solitarire comes up if I type 'games', and two more when I type 'game'.

newb85: Sorry, thought 10.04 introduced the Unity interface. I meant 11.04 then. I know what a panel...

I mean accessing all the games that are in Ubuntu. In reviews of Ubuntu 10.x, I see there is a folder called 'Applications' on the launcher (which you can right-click and select games), but there is...

That's bloody brilliant. Thanks. Although it doesn't seem to be able to do anything for the top side, so the 'window' there is as small as ever. For the life of me I can't figure out why it isn't put...

Is anyone else affected by this?

The Ubuntu Software Centre comes up with random artifacts over it. It is there all the time, and will appear and disappear at will. It tends to carry on over to...

Long overdue, but thanks! This suddenly appeared in Ubuntu 12.10, and this fixed it immediately.

(This seems to crop up a lot)

Is there a way to increase the rather slow scrolling speed in Ubuntu 12.10?
Scroll more lines, make the acceleration faster when you middle click, whatever. My...

Brilliant, thanks!

All 'solutions' I found googling just turned up the old "install gconf-edtitor" and do the same there. Which has no effect on 12.10.

I feel I've been looking everywhere for this, and wherever I go, it's either and old thread, regarding a specific mouse, or a fix for Firefox.

Is there a way to change the scrolling speed in...

Oh, dear. I hadn't put my password in in the 'Wireless Security' tab. When I did that, I was able to click Save. Thank you.

So I'm quite new to 11.10, and have some issues with the wireless networking.
It doesn't prompt to remember the password for the wireless network I'm using, so I have to type it in every time I log...

So you have to uninstall what Java comes with Ubuntu, and follow that rather long guide to get a secure Java up and running, that will update itself? I don't even get the difference between Java,...

That fixed it, Miljet! Boy, that was easy (after you doing the hard work)!

Thank you ever so much, guys! :)

It was already installed, but just to be sure, I reinstalled it. No difference, I'm afraid.
openjdk-7-jre returned nothing after I searched for it.

(I know this is a common one)

Java has become unusable in all my browsers. When I go to a web site that requires java, the page tells me I don't have it installed. I use the browsers Chromium,...

Does not work.

The same thing happens here as with if you would do it automatically:
You get the option to find drivers from the HP website or something, and this error occurs: "error: Plug-in...
