You can share a folder (or multiple folders) between your Ubuntu install and the virtual machine:

I do this for my scanner, since...
There's a PPA for it which will get you the latest version. In a terminal:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:anonbeat/guayadeque
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install guayadeque-svn
You can't uninstall grub, since that's the bootloader. The best you can do is edit its' config so that it is displayed for 0 seconds, which basically makes it invisible.
Depending on which...
I've found that EnvyNG is the easiest way to install the Nvidia drivers.

I'm using obmenugen to dynamically create my menus in Openbox. Just make sure it's executable and put it somewhere in your path (I put it in /usr/local/bin). In your autostart.sh, just add...
For what it's worth, Lucid Lynx will support iPhones.

This could also be done with Robocopy. It has a /MON switch that will trigger a sync every X number of change, which is pretty close to real-time duplication. Really, Robocopy is one of the best...
Yeah, nm-applet is a Gnome app, which is why you already have it available.
If you're going from a blank slate with just Openbox, I highly recommend you use wicd - it'd be easier if you have a wired connection so you can just apt-get it.
Wicd will run as a daemon - if you...
I have the same issue with my LIDE 90 (which I bought before I was running Ubuntu), so I just run an XP install in VirtualBox and scan to a "shared" drive. It's not a perfect solution, but at least...
Those are "administrative" shares, which are set by the system and hidden from view when people browse on the network - at least when they browse through Windows. They can only be accessed by people...
To answer your question - yes. Reinstalling Ubuntu will blow away your installed programs.
I'd suggest looking into APTonCD in order to "back up" your programs, but if you're having trouble...
VLC has the ability to "re-broadcast" video, so that may be worth looking into. I'm not sure if (or how well) it'll interface with your capture card, however.
Sure enough, that was it - I had libtag.so.1 in both /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib. I ran 'sudo mv /usr/local/lib/libtag.so.1 /usr/local/lib/libtag1.so.1.bak' and now Amarok starts properly. Thanks!
So I didn't...
I'm running Ubuntu 9.10, and the Amarok version is just the one from the regular repos (2.2.0-0ubuntu2). As far as I can tell, I have the right version of libtag1c2a installed...
...thought I'd give Amarok a whirl, as it's been a while.
sudo apt-get install amarok
seems to work fine, but when I run Amarok, I get this:
amarok: symbol lookup error:...
I've added the PPA, but when I try to run the apt-get command, I get a "Couldn't find package libgpod" message...
Flash is a CPU hog, basically.
The new 10.1 beta is supposed to be able to offload some of the processing to the GPU, but I haven't tried it out yet. You can install it by following the steps...
Unless things have changed recently, WUBI-installed Ubuntu will mount the host drive automatically at /host, so there's no need to jump through any hoops to get to it.
Pidgin 2.6.x supports Google Talk natively. IIRC, Jaunty comes with a now-outdated version of Pidgin (2.5.something), but you can keep it up-to-date fairly easily by adding the Pidgin Developers PPA...
nevermind, found the answer I was looking for here:

In my case, I just substituted "sop" for "irc" and "gsopcast" for "xchat".
I'm having a difficult time figuring this out. I have come across a bunch of articles/posts about registering file types with this, but not URI's. In particular, I'm trying to register sop:// links...
In the terminal...
sudo update-alternatives --config x-www-browser
It should be pretty obvious from there.
