Thanks. I'm glad I'm not the only one who's come across this.

I've read that, which is how I know menu.lst isn't part of GRUB2.

What I'm asking is, since update manager wants to create a menu.lst, will that alter that way GRUB2 works or will it just be...

During the past three updates, I am told that there is no menu.lst on my system (Ubuntu 9.10, clean install) and I'm asked if I would like to create one.

After doing a little research, I am aware...

Haha, of course it's as simple as that. Thanks for pointing that one out mate.

I have just spent the weekend trying to troubleshoot the same problem. I even wiped my HDD, installed win7 first then put Ubuntu 9.04 on afterwards. I could not get any combination to work. At first...

So basically what the title says.

I have installed a few new GDM themes and have chosen ones primarily with a list of users on the computer, however, none of them are displaying any usernames at...

Thanks for pointing out Keryx. I've been looking for a load of updates for my brothers machine (he has no interenet access) and the dependancies were really starting to turn me crazy.

I used Keryx...

http://www.kubuntu.org/ has announced that KDE4.14 is compiling in the proposed updates section. To install it enable Pre-released Updates in Adept, then under Changes click on Upgrade and Apply.

If you are only using Ubuntu then ext2 or ext3 will be fine. If you dual boot with Windows then FAT32 might be better, that way you can read/write from both OS's

This might be a daft question, but is there a read-only switch on the card? I know I've forgotten about them in the past and been completley baffled as to why I couldn't do anything with the card.

It appears that wording your problems can be the hardest part. I was having the same problem as Catalyst2Death in that other thread but I was obviously searching for the wrong keywords. A couple of...

Initially, I didn't realise that my video playback was broken as I don't normally watch media on my laptop (Acer Aspire 5051AWXMi), but it is soon to become my sole computer and I would like to get...

It's probably a bit late, but you can delete items from your desktop by navigating to it in Dolphin (ie, /home/desktop or whatever it is). I made a little pc for my dad and put Kubuntu 8.04 KDE 4 on...

the solution in this thread worked for me, but I have a much newer graphics card.
There is a stickied thread at the top of the desktop effects forum...

After upgrading to Hardy from Gutsy, only one thing didn't work and that was advanced desktop effects. I'm using an Acer Aspire 5050 and it takes pretty much the same time to load as it did before (I...

I'm afraid that didn't help. Still no fancy effects.
I wonder why it's not working as both installations went without a hitch. I guess I'll have to work on it a bit more. Thanks for your help...

I already had Envy installed but read that I had to completely remove end install EnvyNG for Hardy, so I went ahead and did that. I then used EnvyNG to automatically install the ATI driver.
I then...

double post. Sorry :s

Thanks for the super quick reply.

I've followed this tutorial (and others) but I still cant "extra" visual effects enabled. I think I'm on the brink of cracking it, but I can't quite figure it out.
