I've been doing my own experiment. Haven't had my laptop freeze since I posted in this thread until last night.

Since everyone seems to think Firefox and Flash have something to do with the...

Phew... haven't posted in a long time. Any more word on this? I have been intermittently been having these problems since I clean installed 9.10.

Generally it seems to happen when trying to...

I came up with a project I'd like to do, but I'm not sure how to do it.

I have a spare computer I plan on using as a file server. Setting up the file server is easy enough. But I also have a...

Awesome. I live in Strasburg and work in Lancaster. It's good to see more Lancaster representation.

I've been using Linux since Fedora Core 2 and started using Ubuntu with Hoary.

Oh yes, I agree it isn't always the best, but it's still there as an option. But the bloggers vs. news media thing was more about free vs. paid content. I see your point though and it is well met....

Everything you and HymnToLife have said is good, but I notice a big gap!

It doesn't matter if you point out your copyright or not! It only matters if you act on it. As far as I know, the only...

Oh yes, this thread rocks!

I love SY. I got into them when I heard Mote and Titanium Expose on the Toy Machine skateboarding videos. The first album I bought was A Thousand Leaves, which of course...

thank you, thank you, thank you!

the site isn't working for me either (opendns returns some straaaange results)

i hope this will get the input on my pcmcia sound card working!

The only voices on the white screen are Mario saying "Let's-a-go!" and a chrous singing the Mario theme in a "bah" voice.

Using open source software has solidified my idea that piracy is wrong. Why do I use Linux? Because it is free. Why do I not use Windows? Because it is not free. I am all for free music, but if a...

I was very surprised to see an article written by a linux veteran that emphasizes the good features without ignoring the bad. Usally, it seems, articles either stick to the good or the bad, but never...

Wow, yours looks surprisingly similar to mine! I should post a screenshot...

dude, a metroid metal fan, here?? i am a member of the forums but only posted a few times.

and never mind, you actually have to enable GL desktop to get all the options...

You sure? That just gives me two options:
Enable GL Desktop
and
Show tray icon


I am still trying to find something that allows one to set up the various other plugins.

Flash is good for sites like youtube. Flas is not good for corporate sites or any other site where text information is what is being served. Websites are for information. Flash hinders the search for...

ah... the inevitable last minute excitement...

here's hoping i get work done in time to enjoy an install

I think the font rendering in Ubuntu is just fine, and much better than XP or OS X, espetially for a 1920x1200 resolution. In Ubuntu i have Sans at size 10 and 96dpi. That's the default. In XP I have...

having a 17" 1920x1200 display is nice for using it as a desktop replacement, as it gives a lot of screen realestate. but, it's a bulky laptop to carry around and use off of a desk.

two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a saltshaker half-full of cocaine, and a whole multi colored collection of uppers, downers, laughers,...

april is always a big month for the linux crowd, and i like having my birthday in april.

haha!

man, what a crazy dude...
