And that's why it is so important to actually know what one is talking about, before shooting down an idea or making remarks about complexities that are bordering on impossible for people like me who...

Okay, on the 8th of November "Tizen" released version 2.2.1 of its Linux based platform for Smartphones, Tablets, TVs, and so on. I'm getting closer but it's really a shame that more people won't...

I wish someone else would join this conversation because now I'm getting even more confused. I've read several posts Online where people are talking about hacking into their Android via root and then...

Alright, so then what about my last question? Since I can use up to 32 GB external TF card, would it be possible to boot into Linux directly that way? I could create my own boot Linux with...

Well, the UEFI link doesn't really do me any good since Android isn't even mentioned there. And when you look at the nitty gritty detail specs of the Rockchip CPU that this tablet has, it's all the...

Hi everyone. I've been using computers since 1991 and finally decided to get my first tablet with a 10.1" screen on which I'd like to run XFCE. I'll run Ubuntu or Debian if XFCE isn't possible but...

Thanks for the assist. I went ahead and stumbled upon this other thread which related to what I was trying to do. Spared me the whole hassle of installing the entire desktop environment of Mate. I...

Same here. Part of why I switched to Linux was the total freedom & control that I had, to make my desktop look like anything that I wanted to. This freedom was "taken away" from me with Unity and...

Hi all. Some time ago I installed the Caja file manager from the repositories after having installed Xubuntu. There are several reasons why I didn't want all of the Mate desktop, so finding Caja in...

Last but not least ... One final thing to consider ...

As indicated earlier, my file transfer speed increased by more than double when I used the LuckyBackup backup program for the transfers as...

The "problem" with DD is that most Windows users, especially ones who are intimidated by the terminal, would prefer a solution with an easy, pretty, gui based app. Granted, for wiping a drive clean...

Alright, some more information and possibly even a real solution for many of us ...

Still thinking that Nautilus is part of the problem because within a 2 - 3 hour period the mbps transfer speed...

I really don't understand why this thread is marked as solved? Did anyone here aside from myself notice that the temp related answers were neither actual permanent solutions, nor were they backed by...

Sorry, I know it's been about 10 weeks or so.
Did you get it figured out or did you still need help with this?
I've been running Komodo Edit for the past 5 years becaue I believe it's the best...

Thanks for all of the input. I've come to the conclusion that this must be conflicting file or package behavior between Xubuntu and the Mate Desktop. I believe this due to the fact that if I run the...

Well, I'm using the Mate desktop but the problem began with Xubuntu 11.10 before I ever used Mate. Also, my Mate desktop has the standard Volume Control that I imported from XFCE because I figured...

OMG, really? I'm the only one who's ever come across this phenomena of the volume not working via keyboard shortcuts or volume button on the panel? Wow, considering the size of this Forum that's...

Bump a di bump ... wow, major bummer, nobody in the multimedia forum has ever encountered this? :shock:

Aaaaarrrrgh, this has been driving me batty for a week now. I recently did a clean 64bit installation of Xubuntu 12.04 followed by installing the Mate Desktop Environment. My only login to XFCE was...

Okay, if I'm understanding you correctly you have Ubuntu installed, and then you installed XFCE in order to be able to log into the XFCE session which is why your login menu shows you Unity, Gnome,...

Okay, pardon my ignorance about Xubuntu but I always thought that XFCE was its own desktop environment with its own themes, i.e. no Gnome at all? Are you saying that it doesn't matter which *buntu...

Bear with me, some explanation & background required ... Thanks!

Starting with Ubuntu 9.04 I really fell for Linux and made it my full time permanent OS after nearly 20 years with *******. Like...

Yes, I know that PCI cards can be pretty fast but the whole reason why all of us switched to laptops (four computers running 24 x 7 in our family) is because of the electricity consumption. Most good...

Well, I guess I'm just too ignorant as far as USB speeds are concerned. I'm not a USB techie so when I buy a computer that says mind boggling USB 3.0 transfer speed as well as the appropriate USB 3.0...

Yeah, that's exactly what I'm suspecting ... that I received USB 3.0 capable drives with incorrect cables. Two of the drives have standard USB 2.0 power cables with the little, almost perfectly...
