You can use the awesome ppa-purge utility:
sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3
I don't know if this will work for Ubuntu, but this problem was killing me. I finally found that installing exim4-base first works. It took me a long time to find. Since I found this thread early...
I know this is a dead thread, but in case anyone stumbles across it.
The zbar-tools package (which includes zbarcam and zbarimg) will allow you to use your webcam (or an image) to read a barcode....
On the other hand, when you know what you're doing, there's no tool like it. In about ten minutes, I have a *very* slick, featureful, and useful desktop.
Nothing wrong with the program. It's...
No offense, but making uninformed, opinionated assertions and excusing it with 'no offense' is just morally wrong, and that means you and I are both bad people.
If you know what you're doing, it's...
Mouse gets laggy during disk usage.
Symptoms:
Mouse becomes difficult to control, lags, or 'skips' when the hard disk is under heavy usage (may happen during other IO operations, like heavy...
:-D I'm glad to see the ratio's so good! ..but then again, this is the Ubuntu Forums, and most people here are already probably really "into" Ubuntu.
Anyways, thanks fer chiming in. :-)
I know I'm chiming in late on this, but yup. You either need to pay comcast for another IP address (monthly fee, usually a few bucks) or buy a router (anywhere from $20 to $120 - this Rosewill B/G/N...
Banned for having 'darth' in your name, which isn't even funny if you're making fun of people who have 'darth' in their name.
Yes, it is. ..and it would probably work with plug-and-play on or off, but generally, leave it on.
..if you like side-scrollers and puzzles, you could get a copy of "Braid". It's a pretty cool game where controlling time flow is the main game dynamic. I can't really do it justice, but look at...
Hi, I'm just looking to get a rough figure on the ratio of people who file bug reports and those who don't. No judgement here if you don't (but thanks if you do!), I'm just doing some informal...
Better-late-than-never:
The simple answer that conveys the wrong idea:
It doesn't matter.
The less simple answer that conveys the right idea:

[Lucid] Two Flash problems: Problems Clicking & Slow Full-Screen Video
I had a difficult time finding these, so I figured I'd post them for others. They are two separate bugs, but #1 can prevent you from fixing #2.
This post is to fix two separate flash issues:...
Yes, what you are trying to do makes sense, but Evolution doesn't do that. :-( It would be nice if it had a mail-checker program that would run in the background or the system tray. I haven't...
I don't know entirely yet, but a part of it is installing linux-backports-modules-jaunty. That gets my card recognized, although it doesn't seem to see any networks..
..uh, that is, until I click...
To fix this more permanently (It kept recurring, for me, even after getting firefox to the right size, then closing it so that it saves settings), I turned off Legacy Fullscreen Support in Compiz.

..well, it looks like the 'bling' theme still works. Maybe they changed how themes are handled, and most themes have yet to switch over.
