Unfortunately, I could not seem to get a copy of it downloaded from IBM that Ubuntu would allow to install. Every download attempt turned out corrupted somehow.

I just experienced the same problem, but I am running 8.5.2. I am preparing to download the latest fix pack from IBM (FP2) to see if this will correct the issue.

However, most likely I see this...

I have and still ran into issues unfortunately, especially with full screen video. To be honest, the same issue exists in Vista Basic that is on it too.

All that said, I ended up sticking with...

Yes, I also had this issue, but thankfully I found this reference guide. You are much better off running the full 9.04 version of Ubuntu on the Aspire One A0751H.

Since following the instructions...

You're correct. Reader was what I was referring too. Sorry for the confusion.

And I am referring to Flash Player, that is why I referenced Hulu.com where I use it the most.

Forgot to add Sun Java and Virtualbox. I have to use virtualbox to run an XP install unfortunately because my work. Mainly the remote support client and email system (never can get Lotus Notes to...

Not really, but I use Acrobat daily at work. I am used to the interface and the look and feel. Plus if I recall correctly Evince doesn't allow searching of the text or the ability to fill out forms...

For those of us without a philosophical issue with Closed-Source, I thought I would post a list of the closed source apps that I have found that have helped with me transition into the world of...

I really like the glassybleu and hp theme look (although dust will stay my theme for now). I just hope that the Ubuntu team can come up with something just as good or better for the next release.
...

Thanks for the info. That is where I got the same instructions for installation.

The problem most likely is that the OpenOffice Theme is set to Classic. You can change it by going to...

I am by no means an expert, but I will offer what help I can.

Can you post a link to the instructions you followed so I have an idea where you were told to install this software and where you...

I've hit the same wall. Must be a new bug introduced into the game, or the point where the game is not finished.

Unfortunately, their site hasn't been updated in a long while and the information...

That also solved it for me. Thanks.

I started up ubuntu 8.10 this morning and was going to add an app, but when I went to the add/remove programs the list was empty.

Any advice on how to correct this?

What version of the installer did you run? There are three versions of the Linux installer and how you install varies with them.

I have been experiencing for quite some time (since 7.04 I believe) issues in Firefox when using an external mouse. It seems that somehow when I right click on a link for a menu, I instead get a...

I think I am holding the same definition of freedom throughout. As in complete freedom equally provided for all. I apologize if I haven't.

No it is not argumentative, it is just I think we are getting two different discussions in the same thread. But that is because my thoughts are progressing as I read more on the issue here and...

Well, one real world example that comes to mind (mainly because I remember the stink raise on the tech sites I read) is the Atheros wireless device drivers created mostly by OpenBSD. In that...

But how many comply with the license simply because they see no other choice? Look at what most musicians are willing to put up with just for the opportunity to make music.



I think they are...

I am not arguing that fact but merely noticing this:

Copyright coders use copyright to protect the interests of the group they belong to, in most cases a corporation or organization. Only the...

Perhaps my issue really should be described as a moral/philosophical one. And I apologize for somewhat puzzling my thoughts as I go. I will try one more time to find the correct way to put this...

First of all, again thanks for the rationale discussion. Second, I know I am walking into murky waters, so I hope that this discussion can stay this way.

At least how I am understanding the GPL...

But to me, the GPL doesn't seem to really protect the four freedoms of everyone. It forces the original programmer's view of the four freedoms onto everyone that follows. It's sort of like saying...
