I have a Lenovo E580 15 inch laptop (i7, 16Gb RAM, 512Gb SSD), running Windows 10 Pro 64-bit.
I would like to run Linux on it as well, but don’t care much for a partitioned internal drive.
I...
There were rumors of an official Linux client of Battle.net and that Wow was going to be the first Blizzard game to run natively in Linux. Anybody heard of any news ?
Have been able to install, but the site that use the Unity web player just stays black (which I absolutely need to get working for my kids).
Didn't work in live environment... Back to square one...

Well then, I made the wrong choice in opting for Ubuntu 14.04. I was under the impression that the most popular apps like web browsers, VLC, LibreOffice, etc. would get regular updates.
Perhaps I...
Ok, so updating to 4.3 with PPA is easy. But... is it safe ? Can it potentially break something ?
Can we just install new software versions on a LTS install or should we think twice before we do it...
I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 with all updates and the latest version of Chrome. I don't have the notifications center icon in my menu bar (the little bell)
Have activated desktop nofitications in...
I'm running Ubuntu 14.04, using Google Chrome as my main browser.
Every time I boot up my machine, Chrome wants to restore tabs, even though I closed the browser normally before turning off my...
Have wiped Windows from my desktop as well and installed Ubuntu 14.04. Both my machines are now singing the same tune :biggrin:
So far, so good...
I've got both a desktop and a laptop. I just installed Ubuntu 14.04 on the laptop so let's see how it goes :-)
... is what matters, really.
So, will they ?
Well, upgrading every six months is not what I had in mind. I want to go for stability so an LTS version is the way to go.
My biggest concern is not getting the newest version of applications that I...
I'm torn. Been doubting for months about which distro to use.
I said to myself I'd wait until Mint 17 came out to make a decision. But still, cannot decide.
Coming from a Mac background (15...
Thanks for the info. I use Chrome as my main browser, but I can always fire up Firefox (no pun intended) to run sites that require the unity pipelight plugin.
Strange that the people behind Unity...
In order to have Unity3D (and Silverlight, etc) support on your linux box, you need to install the pipelight drivers.
However, I've read somewhere that those won't work anymore in a couple of months...
I'm currently running Win7 on my desktop. I was waiting for Mint 17 LTS to come out to install that.
Now, I might go for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS instead.
I play Wing Commander Saga on Win7. I love it,...
On my desktop (not a Mac !), I use a Macally iKey keyboard (full keyboard) with a French Macintosh layout (azerty as opposed to qwerty).
When installing Ubuntu (or derivative), I simply choose the...

Will try uninstalling and reinstalling...
I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 and have installed Clementine as music player.
Been working fine until yesterday, something odd happened.
When I launched Clementine, it looked like an application right...
I'm running 14.04 and have so far been using Chrome as browser and for mail and calendar. Now, I want to switch to firefox.
I can make Firefox the default for web browsing no problem, but how do I...
Any problems with Steam games ? Sure nothing will be broken if I use CLI install as well ?
A bug that was already present in 13.10 (and possibly in earlier versions) is still nog fixed. I have set my default app for web and mail to Google Chrome. Did the same for Calendar.
In system...
