I would check out this wiki. It needs quite a bit of work, but it does have a lot of good stuff in there. My main complaint of running Ubuntu...

The previously posted video is very good. Pay attention to Step #4, where the disk is partitioned. I would click manual and select the external hard drive as the installation destination.

BE VERY...

You can also go to Tools -> Clear Recent History

That's ALT+F2

Did you try my previous post? I got the impression from your last post that you missed it.

If I were you, I would reset your panel configuration, since some changes were made to the applets in 9.10. You will get the Fast User Switch applet, which allows you to control your IM status and...

Has anyone considered just locking the keyring, or perhaps making sure that the login keyring is locked by default?

Go to Accesssories -> Passwords and Encryption Keys. Right click on the "login"...

Thank you Brandon. I will try them both. I have been reading that the lpia version can be a little weird, so I might just play it safe and use the standard UNR image. Thanks again!

I am expecting a Dell Mini 9 to arrive soon, and I have heard that the lpia version provides significant savings in battery life. However, I can't find the installer image for Jaunty ANYWHERE. It...

Ouch. Segmentation fault?! You've stumped me.
Bump.

It will format the disk for you during the installation process. Just make sure you have saved all your important data first.

Which version of Ubuntu are you running? I am running 8.10 and also have an HP scanner, and I have never had to do the things described here. I just plug in my scanner and it works.
With that said,...

I usually run these commands as part of my post installation routine. It installs flash and the packages you need to play dvds. Works like a charm everytime. Just open up a terminal window and cut...

I am seeking an open source replacement for Hamachi. Ideally, I am looking for something that can be completely mobile, so that I can be anywhere with my laptop and quickly setup a server. It would...

Can I add music to the slide show? Can I export it as a simple movie file, like Theora?

Does anyone know for certain if Packagekit will be in Jaunty or not? Any links to mailing lists detailing this?

I say this it is worth pursuing, because not doing so would set a president, and give proprietary software/content vendors the idea that they can violate the already liberal licenses of our...

Has anyone been able to successfully adopt Empathy for their video chatting needs? I am looking for an open source alternative for Skype, but something that is just as easy to use (ie. I don't want...

Yup, installing dnsmasq-base was all I did. Oh, I also restarted the computer too.

It might be a question of drivers. Some cards might not be able to do it yet. As I remember, Intrepid isn't even...

Naaa, I just give Windows XP 1 out of my 3 gb of ram and it runs great. Windows Vista might be a different story, however.

One more thing: Virtualbox allows you to make snapshots of the virtual machine, so if you really screw something up, you can very quickly go back to the previous snapshot.

Virtualbox OSE, which is in Ubuntu's software repositories, is a great free and open source solution to virtualization. There is also a proprietary (but still free) version of Virtualbox which...

Also got it working on intrepid. My girlfriend is even able to connect with her mac! dnsmasq-base should really be installed by default for Jaunty!

could you be a little more specific? Your original post is a little difficult to understand. It sounds like you want the home folders of specific users to be on certain partitions, is that right? I'm...

Also, if you define the drive that you have all your music and stuff on during the installation process, it will be mounted at bootup. It would be nice to have in the nautilus properties dialogue to...
