I have VirtualBox-2.2 installed on a fresh Jaunty install. The VirtualBox installation is the non-free one from http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads. When I attempt to install a VM using...
I receive the following error when trying to install VirtualBox in Jaunty from the provided link:
VirtualBox will not start until this problem is fixed. Please consult /var/log/vbox-install.log...
The link for VirtualBox doesn't have any Jaunty downloads, are the Intrepid ones supposed to work fine?
EDIT: Ah, didn't read the second part after Intrepid.
Hi,
I'm just now uploading msn-pecan 0.0.17 to my PPA, for those of you who want to install it, so you don't need to do so manually. It's a quick build, and will soon be available at...
I know for a fact that this is possible. I have fixed this previously before, but am currently unable to figure out how I did this.
Hi,
I have both Gnome and KDE installed. However, when I boot the system, it uses the Ubuntu usplash image, and when I shut it down, it uses Kubuntu usplash image. I want it to be the Ubuntu...
Hi,
When I open the lid of my laptop while the system is in suspend, it automatically boots up. Is it possible to change it so that for my system boot up, I press the power button rather than...
Hi,
Thanks a lot for this. Just pointing out that in the section for dependencies which may need to be installed, you put in 'sudo apt-get libxtst6 libxt6 libxrender1', with the 'install' part.
Hi,
I have a stock Dell Inspiron 1521, and my memory card reader fails to work. I've been using Ubuntu since Gutsy, though I have rarely used memory cards, just thought I'd come here before...
Try running the upgrade using the Update Manager input

Hi,
Are you attempting a fresh install of Ubuntu off of the Live CD? Was this possible on an older version, such as Hardy 8.04?

Debian doesn't have a company like Canonical backing it up -- it's all community based. However, if Canonical were to withdraw as sponsors, I assume that Ubuntu will stay, however there would no...
It's released on October 30th, however timezones do make a difference. At the time of this posting, it's already the 30th UTC time, but the site will not be upgraded until work starts :). However,...
It's up to the Art team to create wallpaper's. But in the end, you never end up using the default wallpapers for very long. The internet is your friend :)

I do not recommend keeping Proposed enabled. All updates to -proposed are copied over to -updates, which you will eventually install. The reasoning for -proposed is to test bug fixes to ensure that...
Rather than bother with codecs, use VLC Media Player. It run's all major audio and video formats, no codecs required. It's prepackaged in Ubuntu, and can be installed through Add/Remove.
The point of having new releases is primarily to fix bugs, update applications, and add new features. If you stick with Hardy, much of the software you use may be outdated.
As for LTS, it simple...
I've had Ubuntu installed for 10 months now, and I've been dualbooting with Vista for nearly all that time. Sadly, there are applications which I must use in Windows, and my printer doesn't have...
It shouldn't be necessary. If the .exe file was a virus, and you ran it through WINE, it could mess it up a little, but there should not be any effects to your Ubuntu system.
Those look very interesting! Have you ever tried any of them?
You can install Kubuntu within an Ubuntu installation.
sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
When you log in, go to Options in the bottom left, select Session, and choose KDE. You can do the...
Brasero will do it for you. Applications > Sound & Video > Brasero Disc Burning. For some extra help, press F1 to get the awesome Brasero documentation :).
To make Screenlets start automatically, it's as simple as entering screenlets into the command field.
As for media players, I use Banshee, and I strongly suggest it. It's prepackaged in Ubuntu,...
