Installing Ubuntu 12.04 today. I still have the Asus N13, but also bought another USB stick which was half the price of the Asus, and works without doing anything other than plugging it in. It's...

Guess I spoke too soon. Even though iwconfig reports excellent signal strength and 300MB/s rate, I am limited to 54Mbps. I think this stick may be going back to the store.

Thanks so much! I just bought this wireless device, and have been searching for the past few hours and trying to build and install old drivers from 2010. Compiled the rt2870sta driver and installed,...

Gnome 3 is working!

Thanks a lot for that post link. It looks like there is a lot of information there, so I will read through it and see if I can fix my problems. My free time to play with things like this is pretty...

Found another PPA. Anyone care to try it out? I am tired of breaking my OS and reinstalling, so maybe I'll try it on the weekend...

This is from a post from when 11.04 was still in beta, so take...

Well at least I'm not the only one. ;)

So I know that the problem is not exclusive to me, and a serious problem like this should be fixed in short time.

I wish I knew how it was working on one...

I think maybe the Gnome 3 PPA is broken.

I created a new user account, and tried to log in via gdm. It gave the same message about ICEauthority, however I checked and it did not even create the...

Today I did a clean install of Ubuntu 11.04, then installed gnome 3 from PPA using the method in the link from my first post.

Now this time I did not make any new users, so there is only one user...

To shed a little more light on the problem, it appears that the newly created user is not loading the xsession that is selected in GDM when logging in.

I purposely went to /usr/share/xsessions...

Right click on the menu and uncheck "menu bar".

Hi All,
I have just upgraded from 10.10 to 11.04. My system has two user accounts, and both were working fine after the upgrade using the Unity interface.

I installed Gnome 3 via the PPA, using...

Hi,
I have fixed my problem with installing the "Windows Installer 2.0" by installing ActiveX control. I now have the problem that the program has installed a new version of ComCtl32.dll...

Hi,
Thanks for the HOWTO, works quite well, and I should report that I've had no problem running IEXPLORE.EXE with Wine 0.9.10. The only problem I am having is that I want to install some software...

Of course, the boot process is complete but there is nothing to login with. At this point, if you hit alt+ctrl+f2 you would see a login screen and be able to work just fine.

Limulus, Foxy123, am I to understand that gdm does not start and that you have to log in at the command prompt and start it manually? Or does it work, but you are looking at this peculiar "[4;4R"...

Limulus, foxy123, it sounds like you don't have gdm or whatever display manager you use starting. Try:

sudo ng-update add daemon/gdm

Thanks for the update.

By simply upgrading my current package, speedstep still returns "FAIL_STARTING".

Have you read this thread? Or at least the first 4 posts?

Just because you said that, I had to know for myself. Sure enough, the bootloader does not need to be modified in order for this to work.

This is a good HOWTO, however I don't agree with your methods of editing the grub menu.lst file. If the kernel were to change, grub would be reconfigured and your writeback settings would be lost....

Due to the many probelms I've had with the AMD64 version of Ubuntu (well not Ubuntu's fault but the fault of other software that isn't 64-bit ready), I've moved back to 32-bit Ubuntu. By default,...

Heretic09, perhaps try to move Section Extensions above Section Device? That's all I can think of.

You can apply the noatime option to your reiserfs partitions in fstab.

Everyone seems to be posting their .conkyrc files here so I thought I would join the party... You'll have to rename the conkyrc.txt file and edit it to suit your system if you want to use it. I'm not...
