Never mind, I bought the tablet on eBay, and it turned out to be defective. Once it gets warmed up, it locks up tight and requires a power cycle every few minutes, so I sent it back...

No, sure haven't, since this is a tablet and doesn't have USB or a CD drive to boot from... It came with Ubuntu 18.04, which is why I bought it.

Wanting a tablet that could run Ubuntu, I recently bought an HP ElitePad 1000 G2 which had Ubuntu 18.04 installed. The tablet works fine under Linux but for ONE glaring problem. When the tablet is...

I don't currently have any spare hardware to run it on.. I've always tested new releases via Virtualbox.. I wasn't aware that 16.10 had made the switch from Xorg to Mir...

Thanks

Hmmm.. Thanks for the tip... Guess I'll have to wait a while till I can check out Unity8..

I just installed the Ubuntu-16.10-desktop-amd64.iso as a Virtualbox VM on my host system running KUbuntu 14.04. The install of 16.10 went flawlessly and the default Ubuntu login works fine, however,...

YESS!! This also worked for me... Thanks for the tip!!!!

Umm.. Screenshots would be kinda difficult, since I don't have a Windows system to take one on... I'm referring to the KDE notification icon that spins during a filecopy, and the only way you can see...

I'm on KUbuntu 14.04, and as much as I like KDE/Ubuntu, I'd MUCH prefer Dolphin file copy dialogs to be an *actual* dialog (like Windows) vs the somewhat hidden file copy progress in notifications.....

According to dmidecode, its a CERC-SATA-6CH.. I guess my main question is.. can I read *one* of the mirror set independantly via a USB-SATA adapter, or you mentioned, using one of the currently...

I currently have a Dell PowerEdge 750 running my home server on Ubuntu 10.04 server. I realize 10.04 is going EOL in just a few months, so I want to get it upgraded to 14.04. My experience with doing...

I am running Ubuntu/Kubuntu 14.04/64 bit with an Nvidia Quadro FX580 video card/Nvidia 331.38 "blob" driver and dual screens. All works fine EXCEPT for the fact that, frequently, after coming out of...

ok.. thanks.. looks like this is NOT the time to try an inplace-LTS-to-LTS upgrade then, rather a clean install from a 12.04 L/Xubuntu disk, like I've done in the past with stock Ubuntu...

Thanks...

So the upgrade process removes Gnome2 and replaces it with Unity? how does that work? Since I don't intend on using Unity, is there ANY way of just not installing it?? Going forward with 12.04, I...

I am considering an upgrade from 10.04LTS to 12.04LTS. When upgrading from one LTS release to another, I usually do a clean install of the new version to a new harddrive, take a markings file from...

ok..thank you. will read the thread given.. I gotta ask though, I use the STA driver on the same machine under 10.04 and it works fine there.. Has 12.04 changed for the worse on Broadcom support??

I've just tried two clean installs of 12.04 (Desktop/64bit). Both were on the same machine/same hardware (two different harddrives). Both installs went error-free, but after completion, the onboard...

I have a Dell Vostro 1400 with 10.04 on it, and I can't get sleep/hibernate to work either. It never worked on the previous install of 8.04 either (never tried 9.04 or 9.10, only do LTS versions)....

I recently decided to move up from 8.04 to 10.04. I decided to buy another drive and do a clean install of 10.04.. Everything works fantastically EXCEPT for network-manager-openvpn.. The connection...

I'm trying to run a Shoutcast streaming server on an Ubuntu 8.04 server, and the info I've found for setting up a startup script for the server calls for a "startproc" util. The info was written for...

Thanks for the reply.. Yes I did check the DVD, and the checksum both are fine.. In fact the second time I tried to install I used a friends DVD that was a pressed one from Canoniacal. I brought the...

BUMP?? Anybody have any ideas???

Thanks for the replies... After snooping around a bit more, found audtool, and its mainwin-show, which seems to have fixed the problem.. Earlier I had tried deleting the ~/.config/audacious/config,...

I'm running the Audacious music player (v 1.5.0) on Ubuntu 8.04, and seem to have gotten it into what seems to be a hidden mode.. Instead of the normal windows being seen when starting the program, I...

I mistakenly attempted to do just that, and was promptly warned with about a page long list of stuff that would be uninstalled if removed libgtk2,0..
If I selected the libgtk2.0-0 (2.12.9-4ubuntu3)...
