It seems to me you will have to edit grub to allow you the dual boot option. I think what you have is similar to a dual boot with dual drives and I ran that set up for several years on the family...

Works on Lucid too!!!

By far the best Ubuntu yet! After much fooling around - see other post, I'm running UNE on the Dell 600m whose specs are very similar to the netbooks out there. I find everything seems faster. I...

All, I have to share my frustrating experience today trying to repartition my drive to create a share between Ubuntu and XP. i am dual booting with XP the first install. I shrunk the Windows...

Are you burning the image to CD or DVD. Might also be the burn quality? Try burning at a lower speed than max.

Need a little more info. I found the Lucid beta will burn the image to a CD but will not run. When I burn the same image on a DVD, the live disk works...

I think my question might be appropriate here. I am considering upgrading my older laptop from Hardy desktop to Lucid netbook because I actually like the interface. Can I do this as a standard...

I still consider myself a noob after playing with (and dual booting) Ubuntu since 5.10! A couple of great resources in addition to the forums that I always recommend are as follows:

I reccomend you take the advice from the earlier posts to repair your Windows installation and then use a live disc to install Ubuntu - letting it create its own partition, etc. I have been using...

That's the conclusion I'm going to draw. Unfortunately I deleted immediately upon seeing it was a scam. It was definitely related to a bug report I am subscribed to.

All;

I have received two emails today to the email account I have registered at Launchpad. The subject is usually a reference to a bug report. The body is clearly a spam/scam.

Is anyone else...

From what you describe you may be better served dual booting or running as a virtual machine if your computer has enough horsepower? See these sites if you haven't already. I find myself referring to...

I let it go too after it updated from the repo and broke and I could no longer figure out the controls. I recall I originally got it from the developer site. It actually was useful and I tried a few...

I could be wrong but from the details of the machine you are trying to run it on, you may not have enough horsepower...?

Unfortunately, I gave up on Cairo dock after the most recent version...

...Ahhh the joys of learning and experimentation! I'm sorry I cant help you there as I have an ATI card in my laptop. My inclination is there is a conflict as a result of doing only a kernel install....

Worst case is you could try a clean install. You don't mention which Ubuntu flavor you are working with? I have the same card in my laptop and it was a hassle to get functioning prior to 8.04. Good...

Take a look at Hermanzone. I've had to repair my MBR a few times and the instructions there are flawless...

I recommend you see this site as well - http://members.iinet.net/~herman546/index.html

It has been a great resource for me.

Best!

...also please help us help you by letting us know if the printer is directly connected to your computer or you are printing over a home network. It has been my experience with Ubuntu and HP printers...

Welcome! It seems I am recommending this all night... If installing on a single HDD you should install XP first. No need to make a partition for Ubuntu yet as installing Ubuntu will allow you to make...

What are you trying to do here. Is this the output after trying to install Ubuntu in a dual boot scenario on top of XP?

I recommend you head here for detailed assistance recovering and...

Well... I'm by no means an expert but have been dual booting with two drives without incident since 5.10. I recommend you head over to Hermanzone to see if there is a solution. It has been a great...

IMO if I were in your shoes I would buy from the university using your student discount. $20 for the full/ultimate version is a no brainer. You own it at that point and can hack away.

If you...

I'm using 8.04.

See also this link regarding samba and editing its settings to join the network. sorry for the runaround, its been a while since I set mine up and I take some of this for granted....

go to system>administration>network and click on the general tab after unlocking the set might up. I think if you enter your network name in the domain you should be able to see your network shares....
