This has been bugging me so I decided to do some more research. It's starting to occur to me that maybe that's just how they sound, and maybe Mac OSX is doing some kind of black magic to make them...
Okay, so full disclosure: I'm asking about Linux Mint. However, it's my understanding that Mint is built on top of Ubuntu, so the answer should be transferable. Also, I've seen other folks have...
Blart. I tried installing Xubuntu 12.04, and hooray, it did it again. I really wanted an install of Ubuntu that was going to be really low on resources, but I suppose I'll have to try my luck...
Do you suppose this is because of XFCE? I've tried Linux Mint and regular Ubuntu, and haven't had this same issue. Truth be told, I wouldn't mind changing my desktop manager to Cinnamon if that would...
I kind of thought this would show up somewhere else, but I can't seem to find any threads similar to this issue.
I am using a Macbook Pro 5,3 and I am dual booting OSX 10.9 and Xubuntu 13.10. I...
Thank you, friends. Jolicloud looks quite promising, and interesting, but Peppermint looks like it will do exactly what I want. I use Firefox for lots and Chrome for almost nothing, so Chromium OS...
I am intrigued. I was under the impression Chrome OS wasn't available for download (hence the thread).
Looks like just the thing I'm looking for! I'll check it out.
I'm looking to install a Linux distro that works like Chrome: web-only, fast boot. Any ideas?
I'm fairly certain this has gone from being a curiosity to being my white whale. I spent a lot of time today trying to get this to work...and nothing. I've tried several different configurations, and...
I would just like to follow up with an update that may help folks (or may not).
Previously, I stated I was able to boot Ubuntu from a USB hard drive (as opposed to a thumb drive). I was wrong. I...
Bump...
Here's a question that's just occurred to me: What is the fundamental reason why one might be able to boot from, say, a USB hard drive but not a USB flash drive? They seem similar enough, and if a...
I followed your link, and at the top there was another link which led me to an "updated" version of the tutorial. I browsed through each, and it seems you are right: this can be tricky. It almost...
This is not helpful to my problem.
Still no luck...
No go.
Please someone correct me if I'm wrong here, but a USB thumb drive benefits from having solid state memory. However, you still need to access the info using USB, which is certainly slower than any...
This is less of a question and more of a request for sharing. I find that there are so many different solutions for backing up data, so I thought it might be cool to share those solutions. Perhaps we...
I am using rEFIt, for sure. It has yet to pick it up. I've never had any issue running Ubuntu or even a OS X bootable drive through rEFIt, but for whatever reason it gives me grief when using a thumb...
I find Live CDs quite useful, whether it be for fixing stuff or restoring stuff or repartitioning stuff. Ubuntu Live CDs can just do a lot of stuff:p. However, I've never been crazy about the speed....
You've actually stumbled on a gparted bug. The reason NTFS shows up as bootable (with or without any OS installed) is because gparted (and most partition software, from my understanding) marks any...
I want an eternal hard drive. :p I realize I'm being a smart-@$$ (and that it was a typo), but it sounds like an awesome piece of hardware...you know, if it existed.
Perhaps it's a bit late to...
I have gone through the first half of the link you provided, and to be quite honest this seems far too technical for me. The last thing I want to do is mess up any boot table and spend the next few...
...
I believe that was the sound of me being schooled. :p
Just as a point of clarity, I was not trying to be disrespectful with my comment, as you undoubtedly (and clearly) know much more about...
Yes, Mac runs off a GPT. I have read, actually, that Windows XP 64 bit (or some derivation thereof, like Server edition or something) can read GPT. This intrigues me (in fact, I'm running Win7 64bit...
Before I begin, I'd like to point out this is not an Ubuntu problem. However I believe my best option for solving this issue lies with Ubuntu and its community, so hopefully someone has some ideas......
My video card is an ATI Radeon x1600. Specs all over the web say its nVidia but I've checked using Ubuntu and OS X, and both tell me I have an ATI Radeon.
