UGH. I seriously hate to bump such an old thread, but I echo the HUGE THANK YOU for this. It was bugging me for HOURS. The second I enabled that everything magically came to life. You've saved me...

Hi all,

I'm not all that experienced with Linux. In the cruel world of IT, my career's been more focused on Windows servers.

We've got one (very old - 12.08 I think?) Ubuntu installation...

Nevermind, I figured it out. Delete me!

My i7 laptop running chrome on windows 7 loaded it instantaneously with zero delays whatsoever.

It's great and a good financial decision, but I really, REALLY hope that the kids are exposed to Windows as well. Any of them that want careers in business fields will have to deal with Windows some...

No one is forcing you to use it. Furthermore, any issues with running a game through WINE would not be the fault of the operating system itself. But since this game is so well supported, your...

eh... I'd believe that number for all distros combined, but Ubuntu alone? I've personally never seen a figure with linux over 1%, but I haven't really looked in the last year or two either. I know OS...

Maybe once she sees you become completely clean she'll start to think otherwise. I'm no expert on relationships, but you're probably the most inspirational person in her life. Either way, keep it up!...

Get her to join you then! :)
Can't be healthy for the kid, anyway!

If I may be so bold as to say it, you should avoid your girlfriend as well as any other close friends/family that smoke for another good week or so. It'll be hard, but it can't be helping you...

Dust and overheating issues perhaps? I still wouldn't rule out the hard drive, even if the tests come up clean. Old drives get slower, it's just a fact of life. Do yourself a favor and slap at least...

I'm taking a C++ class, and really don't want to use MS visual studio. What are some of the best open source alternatives? I'd greatly prefer something that has both windows and linux versions, as...

bump

Nope -- everything's in one big partition on this install unfortunately. /bump

bump, it's bugging my head :(

When my session is taken out of being "locked", the background image displayed is the one that came with the installation, NOT the one I have chosen for gnome. Where can I configure this? I've been...

I don't have access to the themes settings and my theme was reset to something incredibly ugly. Very frustrating, I just want to read my email without my eyes bleeding...

I fail to see why it wouldn't. So long as the entire partition is copied over at a low level, wouldn't it be just like before? I know Vista doesn't complain much when its partition is constantly...

Well, being against the Windows EULA is of no concern to me for sure. However, the 1.5TB is one of the fastest non-raptors on the market right now, and this 160GB is old and slow, so I want to just...

Nah, I'm wanting to put the 160 in an enclosure and use it for backups. It's old and significantly slower then the 1.5TB as well.

I ordered Seagate's new 1.5TB drive, and it should get here in the morning....problem is, I don't want to have to reinstall everything. Does anyone know of a good way to just copy everything on my...

Entirely different league of comparisons there. That card's got to go.

^-- ??

Last time I checked, punk buster doesn't work at all in wine -- it doesn't even launch. You must be playing on non-PB servers now, which generally will, yes, have significantly less lag. If...

Exactly. As long as the user sitting in front of the computer isn't stupid enough to get his machine compromised in some way, all windows game will run better on...windows. I've heard people say X...

erm, not to try and break the subject you're trying to start, but windows mobile is pretty stable usually. I'd take that phone to verizon's customer service, especially if you paid for a warranty.
