You guys should explore the wiki and help pages of Ubuntu, there's a lot of information in there:

That depends :)

You need to read up a bit on the linux file system to get a complete answer, actually you can install programs to pretty much anywhere....

Yes you can delete them, or even better install the native Linux Spotify client: http://www.spotify.com/se/download/previews/

LibreOffice is not .exe, but you can add them back in several ways....

My solution was simply typing about:flags and then enable Override software rendering list. Works great, guess there's no official support for this GPU but it still works fine.

I just tested to set set up tor and when running it from Vidalia you need to own the /var/run/tor directory: chown user /var/run/tor

...and then set it to permissions 700: chmod 700 /var/run/tor

So you need to fix permissions on /etc/tor folder, I'm not sure to what, but try

chmod -R +x /etc/tor

Same here on a i7 Asus laptop. Bad thing is, LO wont recover it after some crashes, file is completely corrupt. This need to be fixed and please someone take the SOLVED part of topic away.

You have probably added a PPA and didn't have the keys imported correctly. Either fix that, there's info in the PPA on how to import keys, or go to Synaptic (install it if it's not installed) and...

'man bash' maybe?

And also some help from Ubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/11.04/serverguide/C/samba-fileserver.html

Sorry to drag up an old post. This just happened to me on 11.10 and Firefox 9.0.1. It started with it not responding and greying out. Then when it came back to live it is black and white. It affects...

I think you by "File System directory" means everything in / or root partition, where your Ubuntu install is, no you should not own that, root is the owner of (almost) everything there. If you need...

Yes I can upload. Try clear cookies and cache and try again.

Might be your mirror is down. Go to Software Sources and try another one or wait a while til yours gets back up.

For writing stories I can definitely recommend Celtx. It provides a less cluttered interface and a lot of nice tools to i.e. help you store characters and other stuff. Also much easier to rearrange...

Sorry, no solution from me, just wanted to say you are not alone. I have the same problem on my Acer 1830TZ but the other way around. I usually use the screen on 50% or less but it always forget the...

There is a bug report here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1889288 with a lot of duplicates. Just click Affects me too.
There is another report here with fix:...

Sounds to me like you disabled Desktop Effects (or similar, just from memory, not on KDE right now). It should be a setting in Desktop Settings.

Is this on one particular site or all sites? If it's one, might be something wrong with that site. What browser? Are you using any plugins? If it's Firefox have you tried in failsafe? If it works in...

There are some solutions in this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1376581

I use DejaDup, works great for my needs. If you need more control rsync, tar or similar with a cronjob would help you. Or just search the repos for backup, there are plenty other solutions.

Sounds more like a job for NFS if you ask me. As far as I understand it's way more efficient than SAMBA when you don't need windows access but there are probably, as usually, many different opinions...

Ok, you are probably right, just to be clear I was referring to this part which made me say it seems like two different versions are installed:



NVRM: loading NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module ...

It seems to me that you also have two different versions of the driver installed. I don't have any experience from NVIDIA with Ubuntu but it doesn't sound like a good thing to have. Maybe try remove...

Try this driver for ALPS touchpad. Install and then restart.

I have tested this with 11.10. It works for me and gave me mulitouch with my ALPS touchpad, I can have edge scrolling or two finger ...
