There are still several glitches for which you might receive errors. Unless you click the details button, you will not know what it is and it could be anything. I too am having some odd behaviour and...

Yes, this is possible, but it is quite a leap. Best to always start simple, until if is for sure an extreme. A system diagnositc would also quickly find these possible issues, but my bet is a bad...

Looks like your home partition is only 1.5 GB in size. This appears to be the issue from your screenshot. I am not sure how your partitions are laid out, but it looks like your home got put one a...

I am actually happy with OpenJDK. Since Java is going that direction anyway, that is what I want to keep. Just can't seem to purge the Java 7 package, which keeps trying to install/update every time...

I tried early on in the Alpha to install a Java 7 package because I was having difficulties with Moneydance. Finally got it working great with Open JDK, but the Java 7 package never installed...

If you have a hard disc utility do a disc check or run one from the live CD. You may have a hard drive problem or at least that would be my first impression if I were troubleshooting.

Something always to consider is that you can't resize/alter and active partition. If you want to do something to a partition that you would normally be using with the OS you will need a bootable...

Should just be able to copy them you your home folder and open and install easily with gdebi.

Yeah, you must not be doing the identical commands as it should install the same in both. A good guide can be found here:

I am not positive, but I would look at this issue possibly/likely begin an issue with your video card/drivers. What card do you have and have you checked for non-free drivers if there are any...

Teamviewer may be a solution. Works cross platform also.

Not sure which "Messenger" program for which you are referring, but there are several Linux clients that work great. Been around for a while and never heard that anyone was using a windows version of...

Install Windows first, then Ubuntu. Grub installs and will pick up the Windows installation. If you do it the other way around you won't be able to boot into Ubuntu. I have used 64bit Ubuntu for some...

If you have a seperate home partition, this would be the only thing that can be kept in tact during a reinstall. Your root partition which contains all of your additional programs is formatted. Your...

The only way of which I know is to reinstall. If you have a seperate home partition you can keep it in tact and only format the root partition. You will still have to reinstall your extra programs,...

There are a lot of "solutions", but one would need to know what kind of hardware you have, whether you have the proper graphics drivers installed, "how" you are running the games. Are these native...

You may have a bad .iso or burned CD. Sometimes the media could be an issue also. Hope you purchased a license key cause you have to have that too to be legal. There is no more prep you have to do to...

If AHCI is enabled it is supposed to be ok, but erring on the side of caution I would not want to do so. I have done it with servers to rebuild an array, but I typically don't do this at home. Matter...

This may sound silly, but have you clicked on the desktop window. Often the menu for any window will not become active till you click on the window or heading bar itself. If you are still having...

I didn't know that. I will have to take that to work and experiment.

I agree with posting at the top if it is a long quoted text, but if one is cutting out just a blurb, replying below would be appropriate. I don't believe there is really any set "rule" or etiquette...

I personally think Apple is going to lose out in general as the younger population matures. While Apple may be "hip" now for some, it could easily become boring. Simple and totally locked into one...

At some point in time .evolution was moved to .config in the Evolution folder in the newer release. I am not positive that it occured in this release, but it may have. If this is the case your emails...

Go to gmail and click on settings. Select pop/imap configuration. Pop typically does not have to be enabled, but may here. IMAP definitely does. You can then go to thunderbird and enter the settings...
