This should be easy to find but I can't seem to find the info.

I know the latest kernel for 10.04 is 2.6.35.4, however all Synaptic shows is 2.6.32 versions.

How do I get the latest kernels to...

Definately a video driver bug of some sort. Right before that my display suddenly went part offscreen and some of it was garbled. Some sort of hiccup occurred.

Well, it's fixed now so no biggie....

That sorta did it. I have to have hue all the way to the right. Is this normal?

My PC just started acting very, very strange. The graphics did some sort of hiccup, and I had to restart to fix my screen.

Now though all my videos play with strange colors. People are blue,...

I have found, accidentally, that holding down my super key (windows key) AND both left and right mouse buttons will magnify my screen immensely.

I gotta disable that combo, or find out how to...

I have the same graphics card setup you do, 2 9800 GTX cards, and they work fine for me. Looks like Apache is the problem, somewhere. Sadly, I know nothing about Apache but I wanted you to know it...

There have been patches to the Blizzard launcher in the past that have broken WoW. One of those was a patch that made all of the permissions change in your WoW folder, making you unable to run the...

When I do clean installs of Ubuntu it has an option to install side by side with <whatever>. Just select that and let the installer do the work.

Try Lucid from the Live CD first, see if wireless works out of the box, then upgrade if all works ok

There are a lot of things to do in WoW after hitting level 80. Try a few things like ...

Collect pets or mounts ... especially the rarer ones.

Go back to places like Un'goro Crater and kill...

You can also be sure if SC2 under Wine has bugs, they will be addressed. Wine keeps up with changes to WoW pretty quickly. I'd expect things to be the same with SC2.

I run dual 9800GTX+ cards and Wine runs WoW beautifully. I loaded Starcraft and it works also. Not sure about Starcraft 2 but I hear it works almost 100%. Check out the Wine HQ database for more...

I almost bet money this is what is happening ... On a fresh install XXXX is the default driver/setting for something. Once you run things once, it changes XXXX to something specific to your PC ......

Yeah, I probably shouldn't have upgraded as everything was running fine, but since it worked I won't cry over it.

I went to the archive page ... the first listing is for the 185 series driver. No...

This may not be your problem, but I have heard that Intel graphics have some issues in Ubuntu ... but exactly which Intel drivers I'm not sure.

You may want to look this up and see if it could be...

If you are only interested in the occasional video, here's a trick I learned that works in Firefox (not sure about Chrome) ...

Watch the video. Then, go to file system/tmp folder and there will...

I went ahead and upgraded anyway ... I'm just a fool for having the latest version I guess.

All went well though I did have to re-do my xorg configuration file so my dual video cards would work...

It's worth running on your desktop machine for security reasons alone, all the other good stuff is gravy.

Check the Wine HQ app database. It has plenty of info on campatibility and tricks to get programs working.

What's happening is you are not actually ending Rhythmbox if you click the X button. It just goes back to tray and keeps playing. To fully exit you must choose "exit" from the file menu.

Still...

I have the same issue. Rhythmbox is starting minimized to the panel. I'd like to make it start on screen also. How can that be changed? There is no option from within Rhythmbox.

That's the way I'm leaning myself. My current driver is working fine, and I'm not sure if updating will help anything (mainly World of Warcraft).

Still, 195 to 256 seems like quite a jump....

Nope, no problems.

If you ever plan to take your external drive to someone else's place who might run Windows, you may want to keep it as NTFS as MS doesn't "see" ext3 or ext4 drives.

I'm thinking of updating my nvidia graphics driver from the nvidia website, but checking into this I have a couple of questions that came up.

1. nvidia lists the current driver as 256.44. ...

Personally, I doubt there is enough of a performance issue to even worry about it right now.

I'd wait until you intend to upgrade to a different Ubuntu version and then just do a clean install of...
