What are you using to Virtualize the Ubuntu guest? Have you installed the guest additions for that VM application to the guest OS?
Sorry, haven't played any games on my Mac. I'm going to take a guess and say you should dual boot for that, for better performance.
I'm using a 2009 Macbook unibody with 11.10 on it. SSD and 8Gb of RAM. I like it except for the battery life, I have to constantly stay on top of it. Manage the display brightness and bluetooth to...
Okay two things: Have you enabled 3D acceleration on VMWare Fusion
Second: Have you intalled VMWare tools on the guest Ubuntu 11.10 machine
Let me know if you have done these and hopefully...
The following should help you with the VNC setup:

What does the following command output:
lspci | grep VGA
This will show you what VGA device the vmware image is using.
Also does VMWare Fusion allow you to use 3D graphics for a vmware image?
The boot time will always be a problem. You can reduce the grub menu from 10 seconds to 5 /etc/default/grub.
Other than that I would love to hear what people have to suggest. Oh and the fonts,...
So you are you still using refit or are you holding the "C" key to boot from the disc? If you are using refit then that seems like the problem. If you *have* wiped the drive then the only thing I can...
Running Ubuntu on your macbook is a waste of time. But if you have no problems tweaking configs, reinstalling once or twice, losing excellent battery performance, and letting go of prorpietary...
When it boots up wait for the gray screen to go away.
After that you should get a black screen with a flashing prompt at the top left hand corner of the screen.
Hit the "tab" key on your keyboard...
Have you tried reinstalling Firefox? Or backpedaling to the previous version? Also do you have the latest version of flash installed? Just trying to cover the basics here.
Citadel looks great
Battery weight and SSD. Other than that you have to research this. Anyone want to argue that discrete graphics eats up battery life? I'm pretty sure you can find something for less than $500.
JEdit is not bad, I really like using it because its cross platform. Only downside, is that is gets a little boggy once in a while.
Go to this adobe site and download the ubuntu version. Adobe recognizes firefox an automatically associates it with Red Hat/raw linux. When you hit the download button it will ask you if you want to...
Phew, glad I didn't make that list. Oh and I have to add some things that was kinda of mentioned by everyone. The quality of the output will be based on cable you use, the TV, and the computers...
Just moved from fedora 16 to Ubuntu 11.10. I have a HP dv7 4285dx and I haven't found a solution to the discrete graphics debacle. Nevertheless this is a bigger problem across all linux distros...
Hi sofasurfer,
If you have a fairly new computer you should have a VGA port on your desktop computer. Now if you have a laptop this may be a different story but you can still accomplish the same...
Just installed 11.10 and it's the first time I'm trying out unity. I wasn't sure what to think but I have to say that I think navigating feels faster. I'm not sure if that has any value especially...
I had the same issue with my Dell Studio 1737, two days after I received it and installed ubuntu on it through the slot dvd drive, I had to return it to dell because the slot drive didn't function...
I have a Dell Studio 1737, and everything works.
System Configuration: check out attachment!
If you have any questions let me know.):P
