Linus Torvalds, the original author and benevolent dictator for life of Linux, had: This to say about the subject of C++. C gets a mention for low level systems but mainly the post is talking about...

The presupposition that "Linux" is moving to C++ is false. "Linux" is a kernel and is written in C and is going to stay that way. C is "portable assembly language" and matches the domain of low...

Nope, didn't work. Thanks though. Need a GTK3 theme at the least more.

Is there any method to get the Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx window decorations (close, minimize, maximize) as seen in this screenshot in Ubuntu 14.04?

I had a BIOS system but a GPT partitioned drive. The Beta Final installer barfed on it when I told it to format and use the entire drive. Booting from a different live-cd and configuring the...

Yes, I'm running 12.04.3 LTS. Streamtuner2 does not play anything on its own. It just browses the radio stations, when you select one it will launch your chosen player to connect to the radio...

"streamtuner2" in the official repos is a great front-end for tons of radio stations. It manages the lists and then launches an audio player of your choice to actually do the playing.

Yeah, manually choosing your partition setup is preferable if you are versed in those arcane incantations.. ;) The guided setup should get labels however as Ubuntu tends to be the first Linux...

Sorry, I cannot. It is part of the installation process. I'm now into a fully installed system after that step. If I went and installed VirtualBox I suppose I could get a screenshot, but, that...

I just installed Ubuntu again onto a machine that already had Windows 7 installed on it. I chose to install them side-by-side to each other. When I reached the partitioning step - where you choose...

Another thing to try, just occured to me, is when the installation media gets to that selection screen: unplug and replug the USB keyboard and mouse. It is totally safe to do that and it may...

Well, that sucks. Another thing you can try is to get USB to PS/2 adapters (two of them, one for mouse and one for keyboard) and plug them into the legacy PS/2 ports. One is purple (keyboard), and...

It is a shot in the dark, but, in your computer's BIOS settings (usually press the del key or the f1, f2 or such key right when the computer starts), try looking for and changing "Legacy USB Devices"...

I made the mistake of installing both fglrx and then installing fglrx updates through Jockey (Additional Drivers). It thoroughly broke my system. Neither could be uninstalled or reinstalled...

You probably should start on the WINE AppDB page for: Halo. It is full of tips. Like what extra packages you have to install into the Play on Linux prefix.

Keep in mind that not all software...

WebCam Logitech c510

Tested in Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit.

Status: works fully. Was having audio sync issues with Cheese but guvcview works absolutely fine with it. Didn't trouble-shoot Cheese,...

Yeah, I don't have lm-sensors installed, just this package and it works fine for myself.



Which version of Ubuntu are you running? I'm running 12.04 and I installed the repository and then the...

I have this hardware sensors indicator installed:

Here

It shows all my temperatures and fan speeds. Perhaps it is worth a try for yourself?

Sorry, missed the part where you said the file was executable.

Are you getting your installer from This Page. Because 12.6 isn't beta anymore. It is an official release.

I have an AMD Radeon...

Have you tried:


chmod +x amd-driver-installer-12-6-x86.x86_64.run

Before executing it with "sudo sh..."?

I don't know if the 12.6 Catalyst driver will support Lucid but making it...

Normal temperatures should be around 30C idle. 55C is on the high end and your temperatures should never hit 70C.

The first thing you should try is to blow out any dust/dirt that may have...

The issue is when it comes to older Ati hardware (pre-2000 series) you must use the open-source driver. This is because AMD stopped updating the official Catalyst drivers for those legacy cards. ...

Try this:
Go to Places > Home Folder
In the nautilus window that opens, go to View and choose Show Hidden Files
Then find a folder called: ".xiphos"

Rename or delete that folder.

Launch...

The issue is that in Ubuntu 10.04 a newer version of what is called the "X Server" or "graphical desktop" is used. This version is not compatible with Ati's Legacy drivers. Pre-Radeon HD 2000...

If you are having such basic issues with understanding Ubuntu and booting from a CD-ROM and such then you are going to have plenty of fun when it comes time to find and install the drivers for your...
