Wouldn't necessarily recommend that if 7.10 runs fine. Hardy broke a lot of hardware compatibility for me and a bunch of other people.



What do you want to install... maybe there are packages...

possible: yes
safe: no

The problem is that a simple installation can result in a partial upgrade that can ruin your system. For example FF3 will need the new GTK, which might break a lot of other...

comment out the cd-rom line in fstab:

sudo gedit /etc/fstab

put a # at the beginning of the line that conains "blah...cdrom... blah"

Bump once more.
This still hasn't been resolved in 8.04, and 8.10 is only a couple of weeks away.

I got a cheap behringer soundcard that works with pulseaudio but otherwise it totally sucks, so...

This is a fresh install of Ubuntu 8.04
Error is reproducible with metacity or compiz.
After about 15 minutes of usage the desktop will freeze. The mouse will keep moving, but nothing will happen....

I tried to install the nvidia driver again using envy - no luck... this time the bullet proof x-server kicks in and gives me an option to run in low graphics mode.

Anyway - at this point I would...

In a desperate search for fixing my audio issues, I thought maybe the Ubuntu-studio package will provide some help, since my soundcard is one of the few that is being recommended...

I have a m-audio 2496 - it's using the envy24 chipset which is officially supported by OSS and ALSA, and has always worked fine for me since I first bought it 6 years ago. It has worked with every...

If you scroll down on the application page you will often find...

-d updates to the development version, but hardy has already been released.
-p is what you want.

So you did rpm -Uhv dsniff...rpm?
Even if it does work... you're getting yourself into dependency hell. You should find a repository that has the package.

dsniff 2.4b1 is in the repos.
Why do you want to install an rpm?
And if you need this exact package, why don't you use alien?

Could you start it from the command line and say what the output is?

This is the buggiest final release of Ubuntu for me, and I started with Warty. If you don't want any trouble, wait.

Try sudo apt-get autoremove like apt suggests.

Did you copy the ~ too? It has to be an absolute path.


maybe you need to install the windows fonts. I don't know where I got them from... They might be included in the restricted-extras package.
