When i upgraded just now, i got version 3.0+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1 (I.E. no RC, no beta). This package is available in the hardy-updates ("Recommended updates") repository, make sure you enable it...

<off topic>

You could try to fix that by selecting to use "konqueror" as the main browser in kcontrol > KDE components > Component chooser (might be other words, my KDE isn't English...).
Select...

I don't think it's a good idea to backport a beta version (considering that the amaroK devs themselves consider beta1 to be of _alpha_ quality). AFAIK, beta 2 will be released this weekend, and it's...

I had to figure all this out by myself yesterday, just because I didn't find this guide...

Anyway, for those people out there prefering Thunderbird to Evolution, follow Kassetras guide until the...

I got my CDs today. (June 21, Sweden. Right now the time is 5:50 PM here.) I didn't order warty, and I sent in my order of Hoary about a week after the release or something like that.

Be a bit careful with enabling DMA on older CD-players, they can (and probably will) break, or just not work right.
Enabling DMA on my CD recorder (I would guess it's about 5 years old), seem to...

You don't need to apply the X patches. Just make sure the evdev module is loaded with "sudo modprobe evdev"

Some quick notes:

1. A lot of the init.d scripts also have a 'reload' action (e.g. "sudo /etc/init.d/samba reload") which just reloads the conf file. All of them doesn't work without restarting...

I agree to that. The CD stickers are Hilarious. The logo should still be the same, but this badger could tempt more people to ubuntu. Although, what would people think when the next release with...

Not yet (It is safe to continue without authentication... Atleast, I do so...), but the held back packages could be upgraded using "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade", which will fix that kind of issues....

1. Read the whole thread, jdong couldn't work out how to sign them the right way
2. the correct way to list the keys used by apt is "apt-key list".

I thionk that Gnome is more lightweight in terms of memory usage, but I'm not sure. For me, KDE is the only choice, because of some annoying performance problems with gnome/gtk, the nvidia driver and...

Just a quick(?) note for all kubuntu users.

If you, like me, accidentally have deleted the debian manu earlier (because it was empty, and thus not showing anyway in the K-menu) follow these steps...

Kynaptic is pretty incomplete, which is pretty bad :(
Try noting down the name(s) of the package(s) you want to install, then open Konsole (K Menu > System > [sometext] (Konsole)). In Konsole type:...

Why would you comment out GLX? nVidia's guide sais that you should make sure that you have it on. It is correct to comment out "dri", but AFAIK, GLX is for the 3D acceleration. Without it, you may...

I had the same problem with my MX700 (Codless Optical Desktop MX), but when I moved it from the USB port to the separate PS/2 ports, it workes perfectly (Apart from the scrollwheel of the keyboard,...

Hmm, if it's the message that tells you taht you probably got an xserver running, just login to a tty console (Ctrl+Alt+F1) and type "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" (or kdm if you run kubuntu). Then run...

There is an easy way to make KDM follow the rules of kcontrol.
1. Open /etc/kde2/kdm/kdmrc in your favourite text editor (with root privilegies, preferably using sudo)
2. Scroll down until you see...
