I have the 9 cell battery on my X200s, it DOES actually last as long as I need. I used to use Jupiter as well, though I thought that it broke some stuff and made my laptop unstable using the latest...

Hello, I am using a derivative of 12.04, elementary OS on a thinkpad X200s. I am running it pretty much stock, except for the SNA driver (the default is DRI). When compared to Linux Mint 11, which...

I have my /home on a different partition.
The mistake I made was that I only left 10 gigs for the root partition and so I had to resort to making a /temp partition on a different drive, the same...

Hello,
My motherboard recently gave away and now I will be replacing it with a different motherboard, different chipset and generation. I was running ubuntu 10.04 up until this point and had it set...

Been there and done that. None of it helps. And I failed applying the magickal three patches.

Hello forum.
I think I have messed up my ubuntu install pretty bad. I tried to install the latest alsa, I compiled it from source, then I couldn't boot with my custom kernel, so I used ubuntu's...

While it has such a feature, it doesn't mean that it's usable.

The problem was the 256.44 drivers. I installed 256.35 (non-beta) drivers, and they work like a charm.

I hate vlc, it's impossible to create playlists on it, the image quality is worse than on others and on a 1,6 ghz sempron 720p videos stuttered, but with mplayer the playback was smooth.
I generally...

Hello, I am using nvidia's 256.44 drivers with 8600 gt, xserver 1.7.6 (that's what I know from nvidia-settings, if there's a better way to get to know what version of x am I running, please do tell),...

FYI, if you are trying to compile 2.6.32 with the bfs patch, your wi-fi won't work, compiling 2.6.34 with bfs patch works.

I apologize if I am not the first one to mention this, but the kernel compiles heck of a lot faster if you use make -j 2 (or 4 or whatever number of cores/cpu's you've got/are willing to use). Isn't...

Hello forum.

Since I have too much time on my hands, I would like to try and optimize my kernel a bit. Since I am doing this on a fresh install, I don't really care if the os gets bricked in the...

Hello forum!
Lately I've been driven mad by flash videos. Sometimes they make the xorg just stop, some times I get randomly logged out of my session, sometimes the browsers just seg-fault. I have...

Thanks, but apt-whatever is working now. But I sure as hell will file a bug report.

It's wierd. Last night it wasn't working at all, this morning it asked me to run dpkg --configure -a or something like that, didn't give me any seg faults at all. Since I've been having problems with...

Whenever I use it. The strange thing is, aptitude works. So I can only use a deb tool which hasn't got super cow powers :(

Whenever I try to run apt, I get this:

:~$ sudo apt-get install flac lame
Reading package lists... Done
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

So does this mean I have a hardware or a software...

I've always preferred sunny weather instead of clouds.

I must apologize for my grammar, I am a bit tired now and I was tired when I was writing the first post. But anyway, in gentoo/arch, it would be easier to use non-distro packages, wouldn't it ? Or at...

Hello forum!
Recently I've been having moronic problems with 9.10, more precisely, with metacity/gnome-bar, usbmuxd, a bit of nvidia driver specific problems and general apt problems, like broken...

Hello forum, I am using ubuntu 9.10 x86, using gnome/ubuntu built-in wi-fi software. I have a problem with connecting to a specified, hidden wi-fi access point.
The problem is that, on boot-up, the...

Hello forum, I want to ask you, is there a really good rpg game that runs on linux ? I've been searching for it for hours, and still haven't found anything interesting.
I don't care if it's only...

Is this in the wrong section of ubuntuforums ?

I am using ubuntu 9.10 32 bit on Athlon 64 X2 5000+ @ 3,0ghz, Asus m2n-sli n560, 1gb of ddr2 ram and a 8600gt.
I found a way to sync iphones from linux...
