"I suspect you made some preferences edit to be able to search with F3. F3 only splits the nautilus view on my system."
That should be Ctrl-f. Sorry to complicate matters.

SOLVED: there are 3 options to make VLC the default application.
1) VLC default in preferred applications, as in the posts above did not work.
2) What does work is to right-click on a file and...
I tried that, but I still get another player (Totem Movie Player), even when this does not play the file.
In preferred applications, multimedia I would like to put the VLC media player. So, I choose Custom and have to enter a command.
Which command should I enter?
Ubuntu 10.04, Gnome
I work on Ubuntu 10.04 with Gnome.
When I open a directory, I can search with Ctrl-f (edited Ctrl-F instead of F3). However, the search starts in my home directory (the home directory is the...
Welcome!
This forum has a lot of information and the dutch forum is no match for it (yet :) ), but perhaps it is nice to know that it exists: http://forum.ubuntu-nl.org/index.php .
To answer the thread starters question: when you want to compare computers it is best to compare their real-life performance. So, go to a few hardware sites like tomshardware or anandtech and see if...
These charges come from customs, and may even depend on which customs officer looks at a package.
On the shipit site it is explained that the value of a cd is declared to be 25 cents. They do...

I think that Synaptic is the best, it gives you a lot of info on the packages, dependent packages and recomended packages.
Bwog's post was about the dangers of aliasses, not about the package...
I understand that OEM installation software will be developed, and I think that may provide pre-installed Ubuntu on budget computers whose main feature is value for money. The Dapper Drake release...

I use an AMD k8 processor, single core, and installed the k7 kernel. Install was very easy, but there was no discernible increase in performance in comparison to the i368 kernel. However, I havent...
But is version 2.6.12.16 stable, because I remember that ubuntu is stable is at 2.6.12.9 right now?
Edit: I see now that linux-386 is version 2.6.12.16 is installed, and that is the same version...

Like Donar73 I am interested in the processor-specific...
@benplaut: I had a similar idea, but with transparent icons on a wallpaper background (havent tried it yet).
@ kperkins: You are right, I started searching for the linux way to make icons because in windows icons are complicated.
