I tried spotify for 30 days free, and every time I created a station, it would keep playing the same stuff over and over. I canceled my membership.

Because it has a dock? Show me how having a tiny dock on the left side of the phone would work. It doesn't. It's not even remotely close to any phone OS I've ever seen. It's a desktop OS, plain and...

Then try Xubuntu. The dock is on the bottom of the screen. No "hacking" needed.


Not true.

Maybe it will, maybe it won't. But if Unity bothers you so much, feel free to use something else....

Exactly. It's not like they are going into your computer and reading your most private stuff. It's merely a way to generate revenue and show you ads of things you already search/look at. And btw, you...

Going by that logic, I must be rich! That System76 laptop I didn't buy for $800, I must have won that $800. That $10,000 car I didn't buy, is $10,000 I've won! Thanks, now I'm going to not go out and...

Rebooting does nothing, I can't find the cam listed anywhere. I even installed hardinfo and it's not listed in there also. At a loss here. But as mentioned before, it used to work in previous...

The funny thing is, it used to work with previous versions of ubuntu. I'm now using UbuntuGnome 13.04. I tried Cheese and VLC, but get no picture. It is the built in webcam on my Dell Latitude E5520...

Been running 64bit for 3 years and no issues.

Good to hear, enjoy.

Same here. Very fast and efficient.

Hits virtual "Like" Button.

I completely agree with you that it is actually a very usable and easy de. I hit the hot corner or super button, type in the first 2/3 letters of what I want, and hit enter. Takes about 2 seconds. I...

Yeah, I think that's something that some people don't understand. Some places that are normally warm will get very cold at times. Global warming doesn't mean that the whole planet will get hot.

A lot of people feel differently. There are literally millions of ubuntu users out there, but I don't see millions of bad reviews. I can say there are many bad reviews of mac and windows too. It's...

Maybe they will, to a point. I could see them offering the base OS for free, but have options to buy preinstalled with support. To me, it's kind of obvious that canonical is going to focus on the...

But we don't know what the OP does on his computer. Does he have 30 tabs open on firefox? While having 4 other apps going? IMHO, 2gb is a reasonable safe amount you should have. RAM is very cheap...

I thought it was a waste of space, but I found putting the mini iso on a cd worked best.

I have to say that after using it for a very short time, I'm very impressed with it. I have not tried Gnome 3 since early last year. It seems very "tight" and responsive for lack of better terms. I...

Probably Debian testing.

sudo apt-get remove chromium-browser
Easy enough?

Wow. (there's nothing to say)

If bling is your thing, then go for it. That's what linux is all about. Make it your own. :)

Once those words come out, as far as I'm concerned, you lose all credibility. Saying you find it not to your liking is one thing, but outright bashing of OS's and software is not allowed here. It...

I like unity, but prefer xfce or lxde. DE's don't matter a whole lot to me, as I only tend to do one thing at a time on my computer anyway. For a hard core multi-tasker it may be different, but as...

For what you want, you may want to consider a command-line install of ubuntu. It will give you a bare bones install with whatever desktop environment you choose. Then you can install only the apps...
