  1. Re: Bumblebee 3.0 Released (Nvidia Optimus GPU Switching For Linux)

    Congrats on the new release!

    Sadly for me, whereas Bumblebee worked flawlessly for me *before* the update, now it does not. I assume it is either the change away from the ACPI calls, or else away...
  2. [ubuntu] Re: After upgrade to 10.10 pc can not boot anymore

  3. [ubuntu] Re: [Fix] Karmic: Automaticly unmount CIFS shares at shutdown & restart with no error

    Anyone know how to modify this script for KDE?

    I'm assuming all of those GNOME/GTK references aren't applicable for KDE/Kubuntu?

    Thanks in advance!

    Re: How to Sync your Blackberry in Linux

    Funny you should say that, since synching most smart phones (including BlackBerries) in Windows doesn't work "out of the box" either.

    Unless you include "running the hardware manufacturer's CD to...

    Re: How to Sync your Blackberry in Linux

    I'm not sure why a kernel update would impact the process.

    The only thing I can think of is an issue with bcharge and needing to blacklist a process in the kernel (outside my area of expertise)....

    Re: How to Sync your Blackberry in Linux

    Please let me know; I'd love to know if it works. I've noticed that the OpenSync plugins aren't terribly well-documented at times, so I have no idea if it will even work.

    I'll have my follow-up...

    Oh man! I completely forgot to include installation of MultiSync! I've fixed that now. (I also found the mis-spelling of "group" and fixed, as well.)

    Re: How to Sync your Blackberry in Linux

    It might take a while. Let it complete; it will either say "successful" or else "error" (or similar).

    Do you have a filter applied to your contacts in Kontact? In the upper-right-hand corner, ensure that "Filter" is set to "None".

    Beyond that, I'm not sure. I've not gotten very far with...
