What links are broken?

I administrate the site. I'm echowarp on launchpad. If you could message me or fill out some bug reports on our launchpad page I could fix them.

Is there a way we could...

I thought it had something to do with being a wubi install, so made an actual swap partition and changed the fstab. Didn't fix it.

I think it might have something to do with having a "failing"...

I'm tempted to just go create a wiki page on ubuntu's wiki right now.

Not great for formatting, but perfect for collecting content.

Is it using the KDE login screen or the gnome one?

If you reconfigure/reinstall either the KDM or GDM packages, it will let you choose which one you want to use as your login screen/default...

Has this gone anywhere?

I'd love to see a handbook made.

If you're still looking for literature, this brochure is great for explaining Ubuntu to new users.

It was originally in...

First, when you log in, check your session options to see if gnome is in there.

Next, I would make sure that the "ubuntu-desktop" package is installed (in synaptic), since I believe it lists the...

Is there a chance that the application you were using in ubuntu tried to consolidate your photo library?

When you press the caps/num lock keys on the keyboard, do the lights change?

How far into booting does it go? Do you see the GRUB menu? Do you see the bios?


Right off the bat, I'm tempted to...

I don't have much understanding of this either, but what's the difference between HDV and DV? Wouldn't it be the same thing as DV except in higher resolution.

I prefer kdenlive as well, but for...

I think you should just be able to unmount
umount <drivename> it. I don't think it'll let you unmount if it is being used.

There should also be a button in the left panel in nautilus (file...

I'm not entirely sure what the command is, but you should be able to choose which machine the window shows on with something LIKE
DISPLAY=othermachine:0 vlc file.avi

Great guide, poofyhairguy!

Would you want to help write the "make materials" how-to section on spreadubuntu?
http://spreadubuntu.neomenlo.org/en/make-materials

I notice a lot of these...

If you are still interested, there is a large repository of Ubuntu posters here:
http://spreadubuntu.neomenlo.org/en/get-materials

For those still interested, the current SpreadUbuntu project can be found at http://spreadubuntu.neomenlo.org/ this website should soon get the official spreadubuntu.com & .org domains.

You are...

The URL for that site is currently http://spreadubuntu.neomenlo.org/ until Canonical finally gets around to directing the domain.

We don't have spreadubuntu.com yet.

In the mean time, you can upload it to http://spreadubuntu.neomenlo.org/

Great Poster! Please upload it and it's sources to SpreadUbuntu (http://spreadubuntu.neomenlo.org/)

We require sources for translations and adaptations.

I am not familiar with ffmpeg commands.

May I suggest PiTiVi? http://www.getdeb.net/app/PiTiVi

Sorry if that's not helpful.

Yes. You don't want to waste time coding the login button, or user tracking. You want to code features right? Drupal is probably the best choice for a programmer.

Javascript/AJAX is a much better...

Depends on the site, but it's almost always best to start with a framework like Drupal, Wordpress, or Joomla depending on the purpose. It makes it easier to expand and maintain, while still allowing...

What are you really looking for in your set up?

If you like the full studios/suites, you could try Aptana.

Really, all you end up using is a text editor though.

I'm a pretty established web...

What does your /var/log/Xorg.0.log look like?

I suspect that it must have something to do with X.org, like you're already thinking.

Did this happen after you installed restricted drivers, or...

I forgot to mention that, in Ubuntu gnome, the desktop is actually nautlius.

Simply because it is an option in KDE, that is really not a good indicator of whether the option will be available in gnome.

KDE is designed to be very configurable, where gnome sometimes prefers...
