I've had this happen before on Flash video (YouTube). Right-click the video, click "Settings" and un-check "Enable Hardware Acceleration."

Agreed. Yes, for now I'm using the print to file option, but it's not a solution.

It seems to be working in other distros... Can't wrap my head around why it doesn't work in Ubuntu.

Hi Peter!

Yeah, that is what has me so annoyed. I've tried a few things, but no luck. When the cups-pdf printer works right, it's great! ...And convenient.

Anyone?

Hi Folks!

A few weeks ago, I finally upgraded from 10.10 to 11.10. Not a pretty upgrade...

Anyway... I installed the cups-pdf printer and now the pdf's come out as all images. This happened...

OK, I just installed the Ubuntu-x-swat drivers from this ppa: http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppa/ubuntu-x-swat?dist=maverick

The card is now showing up as a GT440. I'll let you know if there is...

Actually, the system automatically detected it in the additional drivers,

I am running SETI@Home/Boinc and the Cuda work units are taking WAY longer to complete than their Windows XP counterparts...

I'm running an EVGA nVidia GT440 on Maverick 64-bit. The nVidia driver is reporting it as a GT435, but it seems to be working OK.

Thanks! This cured a few wonky problems.

Thank you!

I upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 to 10.10 this weekend and the missing volume control/volume control AND message thing was bugging me. This fixed it!

Going to pile on...

HP printers do work well with Linux/Ubuntu. HP even has Linux drivers for most of their printers (HPLIP).

Mine is used to share printers (Laserjet 6L and Deskjet 952c), files/backup and music (Jinzora) between my computer, my wife's computer (Windows), my work laptop, or any guests that come by with a...

Yay! :guitar:

The above fixed it for me too!

Ha! That was it! I upgraded my Thinkpad R51 from 9.10 to 10.04 last night and noticed that the volume control was missing. (I always do that one first to see if I like a new version)

Thanks!

I went to run Hulu Desktop... and it doesn't even start. Any ideas? I tried uninstalling/reinstalling, but it didn't work.

I usually do something like this:

Look in the directory where you usually save your work, then do a <CTRL>-h to show hidden files.

If your assignment was, for instance, named assignment.txt, you should see a file called...

Like others here, Brasero makes great coasters for me. I use Gnomebaker with no problems.

I have to agree with RedHat. I had a CRT do this same thing several years ago. Scared the stuff outta me! :o

Actually, scragar's method doesn't create a swap partition, it creates a swap file kind of like windows does it. It should work the same. Nice way of doing it without messing with partition...

I've been using Xubuntu on our Latitude 650MHz for quite some time. Yeah, it isn't zippy like my desktop, but very usable. The biggest improvement to speed was upgrading the RAM from 128MB to...

Ubuntu, or even Xubuntu will run fine on that laptop if you go ahead and max out the RAM. Xubuntu runs fine on my ole Dell Latitude CPX-J650 (PIII 650 MHz, 512MB RAM). Maybe not the snappiest...

Thanks! :guitar:

I never did update or roll back my 180.x driver, but I did switch to the nv driver and suffered the same freezes.

Just an update, I backed up my home directory and did a fresh install of 8.10. ...
