    [ubuntu] Re: Evolution restore problem

    Thanks for the tip. I also am reverting from 11.10 to 10.4 due to performance issues. The file tree of the backup tarball is different to the Evolution 2.8 installed structure; I think the backup is...

    [ubuntu] Re: Evolution restore problem

    This is ridiculous. I faithfully backed up my Evolution and now when I need it, I get an error message saying the backup file isn't valid. WTH?

    Is there a work around for this? Please?

    Re: Installing Citrix Receiver 11

    Note that Citrix has a new Citrix Receiver 11, and it installs to a different directory. So you need to use the following to check dependencies:

    ldd /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/wfcmgr
  7. [ubuntu] Re: Citrix Receiver 11 crashes when IE or Lotus Notes is launched.

    This is still a problem so I rolled back from Maverick 10.10 to Lucid 10.04LTS but Citrix Receiver still crashes if I launch Lotus Notes or Internet Explorer inside the virtual machine.

  8. [ubuntu] Character Map Needs Improvement

    If the Ubuntu development team is listening, I hate the character map. It's not user friendly when you're looking for a seldom-used character like a u with an umlaut or the copyright symbol.

    Citrix Receiver 11 crashes when IE or Lotus Notes is launched.

    Re: What can Windows do that Linux can't?

    You are lucky that your seven machines can talk to each other. It has never once worked for me without a lot of tweaking in terminal.

    Re: What can Windows do that Linux can't?

    All I want to have to do is click the Network icon, see the shares that I know are there, and be able to share with them. So far this has never happened on any Ubuntu machine I've tried. Then so the...

    Re: What can Windows do that Linux can't?

    Right, go ahead and actually try it, and we'll see how smug you are then. Trying to connect to workgroup shares in Ubuntu is very frustrating.
  14. [ubuntu] Re: Howto Install Madwifi for Atheros in Lucid

    Thanks DrKurian. Technically this fix did get my Acer Aspire's wireless working, but at an alarmingly slow speed. My other Ubuntu laptop gets about 9.5MBPS but this Acer is only getting 0.9MBPS...

    Re: What can Windows do that Linux can't?

    First and foremost, networking works in Windows and is laughable in Ubuntu. Ubuntu needs an applet that lets the user set the hostname, set the workgroup name, and easily work with other machines on...
  16. [ubuntu] Re: Lucid and Samba - here we go again [rant]

    I am having the same frustrations and it is infuriating. What is so hard about getting an Ubuntu machine to share files with a Windows machine on a workgroup?

  18. [ubuntu] Re: Wireless trouble: Lenovo T61 with iwlagn to Netgear WNR834B router

    I apologize if this is overly simplistic, but have you checked your firewall or MACID filtering on the router? It sounds like your machine can see the network, but it just can't talk to it.

    Why does my USB thumb drive mount as read only? That totally misses the point of having a thumb drive. Even if I use gksudo nautilus I can't change the contents or reformat the thing. Sometimes Linux...
