Why does sound only come out at once place at once. If I have FF up playing some sound on some site then I have to close it to get sound from VLC and the other way around. I have Hardy Heron and Im...

Nobody that can help me with this? I can acsess all my files just fine from Ubuntu but booting windows seems impossible. How do I use grub properly here to get this working?

That didnt work :/ Same error still. Im kinda confused as the windows partition seems to be and should be completely intact.

When I installed Ubuntu 8.04 it didn't see my XP disc and Im having no luck getting Grub to load the XP partition.

I find it hard to get a IM to be like I want it to. I wish I could have all the features and customizability of aMsn and the looks and stability of pidgin :)

Ubuntu27: I installed those packages and I still get the error when I try to enable the msn account.

I managed to install it, but when I try to add my msn account it complains about needing SSL support. What do I do?

Waaay to expensive :) I'm very happy with my Wii and I'm looking forward to the new 360 which will be more or less soundless. Gears of War is lots of fun ^^

Abiword is definitivly good for just normal writing. For anything beyond that MS Office is quite superior to OpenOffice so I reccomend running it trough vmWare or Crossover.

Yeah, I can see this for other language groups and such but not really for scandinavia. While the idea of a scandinavian community is good Im not sure if we could build a working and interesting...

Well, How well we understand eachother differ a lot. Most people I know (Im norwegian) have little to no problem understand swedes or danish people but its a bit harder the other way around.

But...

nevermind. I forgot running it in the xgl session.

Okey, so I managed to get an ati info string, but I can't get beryl starting properly.

No, you do not have the right to free speech on forums :) You have the right to say what the staff gives you the right to say :)


However, I do think this forum is a bit heavyhanded when it comes...

well, you could but thats pushing it a bit :P But I see your point.

egon spengler: Actually, you just have a really bad imagination if you cant connect safari to web browsing and dreamweaver to making webpages.

Oh and you would loose a lot of money on that. I have...

Erik Trybom: I agree :)

Just to make some things clear, my first point was indeed a rant, not a scientific research document as some seem to treat it like ;) And even tough theyre my own opinions...

I dont mind creative and uniqe names, but its fully possible to combine creativity and intuitivity. Good examples are programs like Rythmbox and Timemachine or even to a lesser degree safari. Names...

maniacmusician: Microsoft has more money to use on PR then Ubuntu has.

Well, that is part of the problem. That some people like quirky names and uses them on applications. Applications should have intuitive icons and names.

And a name isnt just a name. The name is...

well, the bad thing is that linux probably wont get the support from hardware manufacturers and commercial companies untill linux gets big enough, wich it wont get unless its preinstalled on pcs...

Linux naming conventions suck. They really absolutley suck.

How is that linux programs in general have terrible names? Yes names are often uniqe and sometimes even catchy, but theyre horribly...
