OK, not that it is anything that anyone will care to read but you can find the meanderings of my mind at:

I haven't posted any "Linux" or "Ubuntu" items because...

I am so totally hooked on Ubuntu Linux that I really want to get my family onboard. I can fairly easily get 3 out of the 4 people switched over from Windows but I have one with a valid concern.

Well, while seducing the canine, whilst my son and I waited for our car to be repaired, I finally found the "Bug Buddy" that Evolution referred to. I am happy to report that since I found "Bug...

I am down to one little annoying problem since my successful update to 10.04 LTS Lucid Lynx and I hope someone can give me some input on a solution. I am trying to use the Evolution email client...

I would kill to be able to run the 64 bit system. That was what I started with back in November last year with Karmic only to find out most of my problems came from not having plugins for the things...

Thanks for the information. I decided to try it again this weekend. I did the upgrade more times than I'd like to admit but low and behold it worked. I have a fairly stable PC running the 32 bit...

Hey Team,

I'm curious to find out if others experienced problems upgrading from 9.10 Karmic to 10.04 LTS Lucid. I did an upgrade through the update manager as suggested on UbuntuLinux.org and...

Thank you for confirming what I thought but no one would confirm. I work in an IT department with a lot of developers and programmers, although I am neither of those, and when they run and scamper...

I'm not talking about potato chips either. I'm talking about 10.04 LTS Lucid Lynx. I tried upgrading to Lucid through the Update Manager, I tried Lucid from a fresh install from CD, and the bottom...

I'd like to tell you about my experience with this issue but the last time I tried my post was removed and made into a thread of it's own saying I was trying to hijack a thread. It's not you, it's...

I used Karmic since November 2009. I struggled with it since it was my first install of an OS and I had only Windows Experience. The people on Ubuntu Forums put up with a lot of my angst and anger...

I gave away both of my copies of Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala to friends to turn them onto the Power of the Penguin. Now here I sit with a fresh install of 10.04 LTS Lucid Lynx and I still have...

Hi, I am experiencing that right now. Can you tell me how you figured out the output? I'm a newbie to installing operating systems and Ubuntu / Linux in general.

Thanks!

Excuse my stupidity, but what is "Dropbox"? I'm not trying to be a problem, I'm just trying to learn.

Forgive me, I'm really not trying to be disrespectful, but I learned a long time ago that a slave cannot serve 2 masters. I have never dual booted personally, and I'm sure someone will have the...

From what little I remember, and I'm sure someone will correct me, in Thunderbird, when setting up your account, on the servers tab there is a box to check for server authentication, might check...

I'm probably wrong, and I am sure someone will correct me, but if you "right click" in the "Panel" and click on "Add to Panel" there is the option to add "Notification Applet" and "Notification...

Try navigating to System, Preferences, Mouse, and the 3rd tab should be "Touchpad". I know that is where I turned that off in 9.10 and 10.04 Ubuntu anyway. But I'm sure someone will correct my...

Nick,

I was able to follow your link to the game and play it with my machine, but I'm running 32 bit Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, Lucid Lynx. I don't know if it will help you but here is what I did so that...

Tom,

I'd like to tell you exactly what JAVA files I'm running, but I'm not sure how to find out. I'm actually fairly computer illiterate, but what I can tell you is, I used the Synaptic Package...

Thank you.

I wasn't aware that adding your comments to a thread started by someone else with the same problem was considered hijacking. As always I apologize to the Ubuntu Forums users for my lack of...

I am no where near as technically savvy as the original poster, but I have experienced the EXACT same issue with Evolution since upgrading from 9.10 Karmic to 10.04LTS Lucid.

Prior to a fresh...

I used the Synaptic Package manager to remove the Icedtea.

Thanks!

I'm certain someone else has figured this out, so forgive me if this old news.

I play games on POGO.com. After updating from Ubuntu 9.10, Karmic Koala, to Ubuntu 10.04LTS, Lucid Lynx, my games at...
