Well, that's not it.
How stable is your system? Can you run memtest (from Grub menu) for four hours w/o errors?
A timing glitch on the second bank of RAM can cause intermittent problems during...
Open a terminal window (Apps -> Accessories -> Terminal)
sudo apt-get remove zsnes --purge
Are you low on free disk space? How much swap space do you have?
Running at less than 10% free disk space can cause a logarithmic increase in disk thrashing during file-writes (can look like a...
Try
sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
The Ubuntu repositories are bigger than you presumed.
So create a keyboard shortcut to kill X.
Ctrl-Alt-Backspace is the usual shortcut for that and can be enabled via System -> Prefs -> Keyboard -> Layout -> Layout Options...
"killall X" will do...
Possible causes:
Web site caching.
"updatedb" (keeps a cache of filenames for locate command)
Unwritten data writing.
Lookahead buffering.
Boot from the LiveCD in "Try It" mode.
Open a terminal window (Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal)
Run the following command:
sudo fdisk -l
Which partition is the ext4 / partition?...
That's not emacs. The emacs editor is a text-based editor. That's x11emacs, so set a smaller font for x11emacs.
Or, open a terminal window and run emacs from there like the developers intended. ;)
When DDC/CI and EDID protocols fail (non-compliant monitor, bad cable, etc), xrandr will do nothing (which is exactly why this problem appears in the first place). In these cases, all xrandr can do...
The HOWTO shows you two ways: one, having the specs of your monitor, and the other knowing what your monitor can do (resolution-wise).
If you're missing BOTH, then you can try:
Experimenting!...
I read your post (I think - I'm a pretty good reader) and I can't figure out what package you're trying to build.
Not every source package will build easily on any given Linux distro. To assume...
One of many howtos.
I think vsftpd (on this release) configures "anonymous only" ftp service (by default).
Edit the config to allow user accounts as well (local_enable=YES and write_enable=YES), then restart the...
A lot of the problems posted on this forum are "I can't log in."
EASY PREVENTIVE TIP:
Before you tweak your beautiful Ubuntu installation to death (literally), create a second admin account.
...
Open the Synaptic Package Manager (System -> Administration -> Synaptic)
Click the "Search" button.
Enter vsftpd and do the search.
Select vsftpd for install. (Very Safe FTP Daemon)

You installed a theme that does not work.
Print these directions and follow them. PAY CAREFUL ATTENTION TO THE FILENAMES - THEY HAVE '.'s AT THE BEGINNING.

Yes, I do, but you can (and should) test it too.
tar tzf back.tar.gz will open it. Or, you can just double-click the file from the filemager and browse the files and folders.

xulrunner-1.9.1 is a dependency of firefox-3.5
Install the libmozjs and you have to ubinstall a lot of stuff - because libmozjs is not compatible with xulrunner-1.9.1.
So make a copy of the existing magic file and copy the one from a 9.04 iso. See if it works as expected. That's easier than trying to trace how the diffs will be interpreted.
Found it!
$ aptitude why-not libmozjs-dev
i xulrunner-1.9.1 Conflicts libmozjs-dev
THAT is why it wants to remove all of those packages.
(chase the packages backwards and you get the...
I don't see a way to filter the installed packages that way...
There are ways to force anything, but I wouldn't.
I'd build it from the source.

The order of entries in the magic file is significant. Depending on what system you are using, the order that they are put together may be...
