Um, how do you disable greasemonkey? thanks.

Wait- anyone on the *network*? that doesn't seem good. I don't see why anything would have to be exposed on the network.

This is what I mean by begging the developers to 'support' it, rather than...

I've concluded that PulseAudio in system mode is supposed to give the intended behavior, but it is not well-supported (and they recommend against using it).

But it seems like that is the way to...

The first thing I would do is boot with a live CD and inspect the partition. If you can mount it from a live CD then it should be possible to mount it from the proper install; otherwise, you can...

One installs the 'lxde' package; the other installs 'Lubuntu-desktop'. What's the difference between those two packages?

whaaa?

To me, 'network console' means a headless box, and you connect from remote via shell. but you have two monitors. and 'rotate between websites'?

what exactly are you trying to do. Some...

"Places" isn't well-defined, in any OS. On Vista I had to hack the registry to change what appeared on its 'places'. On the other hand, the idea of adding a bookmark seems perfectly obvious to me....

I believe X always loads /etc/X11/xorg.conf . The only exceptions would be if a different file were specified on the commandline, or if you specifically selected something like 'failsafe mode' at...

I'm trying to come to terms with 'gnome-screensaver' instead of xscreensaver, and I'm wondering-- how do I tell gnome-screensaver to disable certain lame screensavers when it's doing random mode? in...

post your xorg.conf file here so we can look at it.

If dnsmasq is installed, 'sudo apt-get remove dnsmasq' should get rid of it.

When you say it "doesn't work" you aren't saying anything. what happens?

It sounds like your question is about VMWare, not ubuntu.

I generally like to have around 20 GB for a system drive, 2GB swap, and the rest for /home. Are you using the partitioner in the ubuntu installer?

What are the "4 options" you mentioned?

OK, so I used dd to duplicate the entire drive:



dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=4096


After that I used gparted to resize the new partition(s). Then I shut down and removed the old drive.
...

Thanks! As usual, I was making everything far too complicated.

One other question-- now that ubuntu uses UUIDs to identify disks in grub and fstab, I assume I need to mount the new drive and...

Hi,

I'm upgrading from a 250GB drive to a 500GB drive. I booted into the live-CD, ran gparted and created the necessary partitions:
/dev/sda1 ext4 /
/dev/sda2 swap
/dev/sda3 ext4 /home

then...

It's certainly of minor importance.

I have a problem with pulseaudio: it fills my logs with these messages:

I quite disagree. As a user, I want my computer to use the resources it requires and not just dump my dollars and cents into its heat sink. ondemand is the correct default.

I agree with the...

I have this problem too. Has anyone filed a bug?

Would you mind explaining how you got the system set up? I would like to stream audio from one device to another running a pulseaudio server but I don't know how.

Also, it doesn't seem like any...

By the way, I figured out that the vesa driver does not support DVI out. So it sounds like the Radeon 3200 is not supported by the opensource driver. Either way, I'm just using vesa with a VGA...

I can't quite tell what works and what doesn't from your posts. It sounds like your dongle goes with the VGA port on your motherboard, and that either monitor plugged into the DVI port works, but...

Just for completeness, the fix seems to be to rename 'saved_state' in the .gconfd directory:



cd ~/.gconfd
mv saved_state saved_state.old


Then you need to restart gnome (logout and log...
