Sorry for the double-post but I've been doing a bit of research:
Firstly, it seems that udev-extras has been rolled into udev, since I was able to run
/lib/udev/modem-modeswitch --vendor 0x12d1...
Seems that the udev-extras package no longer exists.
These modems are still a problem in Ubuntu, a shame since it should be easy for upstream to fix.
I'm going to do some searching and maybe...
I too own a Starling netbook and -- since I paid good money -- expect things like the SD card reader to work.
From the discussion on the kernel mailing list it seems nothing is going to be done,...
I've had data loss with EXT4, following two power outages in short succession.
Luckily I had backups, so didn't lose much work. If you're going to use EXT4 make sure you have backups.
In fact,...
It doesn't mean that at all, silly! :)
We could take it to mean Ubuntu is ready to supplant Windows (remember bug #1), but that's not the same as making it exactly the same. In fact, because of...
It's possible to use a 9.04 live cd to test whether the latest Xorg works for you, see the section: 'Testing with a live CD/media' on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XorgOnTheEdge
Unfortunately this did...
I'm getting a similar issue with an ATi Radeon X600 dual-monitor setup. After using Preferences -> Display and logging out/in again, both monitors are 'zoomed-in' on the desktop, while the newer...
Wow, they've deleted the thread. Are they that desperate to hide the fact that people use GNU/Linux?
Weird.
Firstly, that is not entirely true. There's Bazaar (not really a part of the desktop, but it is an important part of tools used to put together the distro), Upstart and Ubiquity.
Secondly, that's...
Good package name, but it's hardly what the idea is specifying. Looking at the dependencies and the description above, it seems this is just for making packaging easier. Not an easy way for...
You misunderstand the idea. We're not asking Canonical to hire more developers, but to provide a meta-package for people who want to hack on Ubuntu.
Basically: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-sdk

I did a search, but it seems no-one on the forums is discussing this brainstorm idea on prioritising developers for 9.04:
This seems like a very worthwhile idea, if not for 9.04 then for the...
To those who're complaining that this is a rip-off of Microsoft Office 2007: the decision to copy Microsoft Office was made a long time ago. Look at the current OpenOffice, it looks like Microsoft...
Has anyone seen the new front-end for OpenOffice the Chinese have been working on? It's called Red Office and it looks sweet.
I've already posted up an idea on Ubuntu Brainstorm, didn't see any...
MyISAM eh? I heard it has trouble with corruption.
Am surprised you're not using InnoDB on a site this large (not a criticism, I'm just interested). I've seen quite a good comparison of the two...
Don't know why this one didn't appear in my searches: ISPConfig. Looks really promising too.
:)
Had a quick look at doing this, the only way to organise things sensibly would be to allow voting on Blueprints and bugs (as opposed to allowing users to entering any old rubbish). At least this way...
I'm interested in this too. Have a look at:
Webmin/Virtualmin - looks most promising.
ispCP - looks really slick, but seems to still be in development (maybe stalled?)
vhcs - also...
Sadly that doesn't seem to work for Gutsy. Following error is returned:

Don't put my name down for the testing (although it sounds great am lacking time :( ) but thought I might suggest you use Drupal as the platform for this: http://drupal.org
It's a fantastic CMS...
I've just written an article on this subject (since I had to do the same thing myself) see: Easy PHP Debugging in Ubuntu (using Xdebug and Vim).
I'm using Vim, which is a fantastic general editor,...
Think I know what this is. I recently wrote a howto on Installing the latest FFMPEG on Ubuntu Feisty, note the last section 'Technical Backflip'. Seems when you compile FFMPEG it installs some...
Wow, ouch, I had to duck as an intercontinental ballistic chair just flew very low over my head on it's way to Italy from Redmond!
There were some words just discernable after the sonic boom,...
He's downloading from bittorrent which means he's downloading from everyone else who's using Bittorrent. It's a peer-to-peer thingamy. :)

Wasn't that what the bloke in Alien III said just before the Alien crashed through the ceiling, munching him down like an old Twix?
