  3. [ubuntu] Somehow missing Firefox shortcut logo

    Ok, somehow, I stupidly "lost" the logo for Firefox from the status bar. When I go to change the logo the Firefox logo is not available to choose. I have looked in the Firefox folders and have not...

    I should add that since this is for an English class, and not a computer class, the info that I put into the paper has to be for an "average" reader. It is not going to be too technical, it is...

    [ubuntu] Re: Switching from Windows

    I am pretty sure the problem is with Adobe and not Ubuntu. Many software companies make their software only for Windows, and some for Mac.
  7. [ubuntu] Re: buying a ps3 what to expect from ubuntu?

    Absolutely nothing to do with the question in your post, but have you looked at used desktop PC's? I do not know where you live, but I see quite a few used dual core PC's for around $150, often less...
  8. [ubuntu] Re: buying a ps3 what to expect from ubuntu?

    And that I can not answer. My ps3 is used for playing PS3 games, and streaming netflix. Someone with more knowledge on the subject will let you know about that.
  9. [ubuntu] Re: buying a ps3 what to expect from ubuntu?

    OP: Is the hidden trash folder empty?
  12. [ubuntu] Re: buying a ps3 what to expect from ubuntu?

  13. [ubuntu] Re: how do i change the boot order in grub2 to a cdrom with windows vista on it?
