    [ubuntu] Re: Nvidia Install Failure on 12.10

    If I remember correctly, you need to install "linux-headers-generic". Then, re-install the Nvidia driver. I had the same problem. For some reason the package is not installed automatically, like it...

  7. [ubuntu] Re: Wireless Dropping - Works on XP though?

    On my laptop, I was having an issue with my wireless connection dropping and reconnecting every few minutes. What fixed the issue for me was switching to Wicd from Network Manager. It's in the repos.
  8. [kubuntu] Re: How do u lock the version of a package

    You should type
    about:plugins in the address bar of your browser. If you see anything relating to "IcedTea" or "openjdk", then you are using the open-source plugin.
  9. [kubuntu] Re: How do u lock the version of a package

    Which Java are you using? I find that 99.99% of any problems I have running applets comes from using the open-source version. A quick switch to the sun-java6* version fixes most of my issues.

    Re: Rate the Signature above you

    7/10. I hate reading through a thread just to found out 10 posts later that it's already been solved. Chips sound pretty good right now, too.
  11. Re: Wine with World of Warcraft on a new X server

    To get back to the main session that starts when you turn your computer on use "Ctrl + Alt + F7". When I played, I installed fluxbox. That way I had a nice lightweight window manager, instead of...

    [ubuntu] Re: About Swappiness

    I also have 4GB of RAM. I rarely use any of my swap space. I changed my swappiness to 10, but I haven't really noticed any difference in performance. Like I said though, my system hardly ever used...
  14. Re: Wine with World of Warcraft on a new X server

    Sorry, my mistake. The correct key combo is "Ctrl + Alt + F1". You can use F1 through F6, take your pick.
  15. Re: great comparison between iOS, Android and WebOS

    Where did you hear that Maemo is no more? Maemo and Meego do not target the same devices. It is my understanding that Meego is targeted at netbooks and the like, not smartphones. I also could not...
  16. Re: Wine with World of Warcraft on a new X server

    I've never tried what you are attempting. However, when I used to play WoW, I just used virtual consoles to have access to other programs. For example, I would press "Ctrl + Alt + F1" while in-game,...

    The only issue I've had running 64-bit is with the default flash player. However, using the 64-bit version of flash from Adobe Labs works great, thus eliminating that issue. I would highly recommend...

    [ubuntu] Re: Help with partition sizes please!

    What's on /dev/sda2? If it's not anything important, your best bet would be to delete that and the swap partition. Then you should create a new swap partition at the end, and expand the root...

    Poll: Re: Do you want an Ubuntu Welcome Tour?

    I, for one, think it would be a good idea. It would not have to be an annoying pop-up, though. It could be placed in the applications menu, as well as having a link on the desktop.

    Also, I think...
