Gerard,

Many thanks for the tip on downgrading the two most recent xserver package updates. Seems that when I applied those updates this evening, it killed my desktop effects. Hopefully the...

Jakey......thanks for the info on how to center text in the titlebar. Normally I would use emerald on my Ubuntu's but our laptop has a cheapy video card and will only support metacity. I was...

I suspect that the Gutsy repositories have been removed and are no longer available. The last updates I saw for Gutsy were posted maybe a week to 10 days before Jaunty was released. I have two...

Generally speaking, if the CD passes its integrity tests, then you have a good burn. Now I also assumed you checked the md5sum of the .iso file before burning the CD and it passed.

So if we feel...

Have you tried checking the integrity of the CD using the initial Ubuntu menu item? As a matter of policy, I always burn my Linux CDs with a burn speed of 4X, but 7X doesn't sound outrageous to me. ...

You would be surprised at the differences in Ubuntu versions. Even though it will receive long term support, I have had more than my share of problems with Hardy compared to previous versions of...

Sorry, I was confused about whether you were installed or not. Seems your problem is that Ubuntu won't even run as a Live CD for some reason. And you say you have tried the Alternative CD so no...

Also, have you tried to enter "Recovery mode" through the grub menu? This is selectable by pressing "Esc" when the grub message first hits the screen.

I don't really have an answer for this problem other than to say I suspect Ubuntu is having difficulty properly configuring your video card and perhaps has chosen the wrong driver.

From your...

Don't quote me on this, but my understanding of the compatibility of high density memory has a lot to do with the chipset used by your computer. All my machines are old AMD Socket 462 based and I...

Here is what my playback looks like using mplayer-plugin:

Ivann92, I was able to show this video in my Gutsy Gibbon system using the mplayer-plugin for Mozilla. I also have the w32codecs package installed.

The only downside with my current configuration...

I googled your friend's Dell computer and suspect it uses the Broadcom 4318 wireless chipset. I run an Acer Aspire AS-3003 laptop with the same chipset. Before Hardy, I had the best luck when using...

I tried to get Rhythmbox to stream your station, but I didn't have any luck either. I'm not positive, but it seems as if they are streaming in Flash. If so, I don't know if Rhythmbox can handle the...

Surprisingly, the latest kernel update in Hardy has fixed my printing issues.

Surprisingly, the latest update of the Hardy kernel has fixed my printing issues. Maybe Hardy will be good for the long term!

I too have been successful at getting printing to work with the latest kernel upgrade. I am keeping my fingers crossed that nothing else has broken in the process. Hardy is looking better all the...

Here is a thread that might be of some assistance on getting your wireless working:

I don't know if you are using 32-bit Ubuntu...

For me, getting wireless to work on my laptop was the easiest experience to date. I didn't even need ndiswrapper with Hardy. Where I am having trouble is printing to my network printer. Setup was...

It just seems to me that the Kentucky LoCo group has run out of steam. Either that, or they are spending their time (like me) trying to work out all the bugs in Hardy.

Hello again. I was here about 2 weeks ago, and had similar issues printing to my Samsung printer which is served by a Trendnet print server. At that time I was able to fix the problem by executing...

I seem to be having a similar experience. I installed Hardy on my Acer laptop and configured it to print (using lpd) to my Samsung printer which is served by a Trendnet print server. Initially,...

As of this morning, you could still get some updates from here:

Hello again,

I was finally able to try putting AppArmor into complain mode and that allowed my Hardy install to print to my Samsung printer. So what do I need to do from here to re-enable...

Adonet,

I just found your thread and like you, am having trouble printing via LPD in Hardy. I've installed Hardy on my Acer 3003LCi laptop. My printer is a Samsung ML1710 served by a Trendnet...
