actually, I can't give any verbose, because the screen goes black (and stays that way for at least and hour. I didn't continue after that). The only option at that point is a hard shutdown and pull...

What is up with the video in the Ubuntu distro after 9.04. I tried to go up to 9.10, 10.04 and 10.10. They all show the little glowing dots and then go black.
Is there something I am doing wrong (I...

You people are the best. I followed the above link to the hulu website and downloaded the hulu desktop app. It worked fantastic. Thank you all so very much. I think the reason I didn't catch it the...

[QUOTE=niteshifter;9170363]Hi,

Important part of that guide (and easy to overlook): Removal of the old flash plugin. That bit me when I upgraded some months ago.

Check the version of flash...

I want to thank everyone for the replys. I followed the instructions and installed the version 10 flash, but the hulu site still says that the hulu player does not support this operating system. I...

I am running version 8.04 ubuntu. When I log on to hulu videos, I get the message:---

"Express install not supported on this operating system. To upgrade ;etc;etc.". ---

Well, I tried to install 9.10 on my IBM r50e and was thwarted by my inability to get the wirless to work. Not a biggy, Just wanted to use the available wireless rather than plugging into an ethernet....

I want to thank you for the information. I downloaded symphony after reading about it on a web site. I used the synaptic package manager because ubuntu advised it. I didn't care for it so I thought I...

There is a new (as of November 8) office suite online as a free download. IBM Lotus Symphony. There is a version for Windows. There is a version for Mac OSX and (wait for it) There is a version for...

This is it. It takes a bit to get use to, but between the nm-loco team, and the ubuntu forum, there is everything here that you will need.

There is a meeting every tuesday on the IRC channel on...

I was past 50 before I first touched a computer. I saw no need for them. Then that new fangled windows 95 came out and my children thought I ought to join the modern world.

The first time I tried...

This has been a frustrating journey. I have tried everything that has been given here as well as things I have found on at least twelve other forums, and I still couldn't get the thing to install.

I have been playing around with virtualbox and have run on to some thing I don't understand---

VirtualBox kernel driver not installed. The vboxdrv kernel module was either not loaded or...

Let's take that a step further. $50 for 'one' computer for an oem. But with Linux, free, as in free to use, means that if you have four computers (which I do. I don't throw things away) then legally...

robotex.com says that their maximum connections have been surpassed. I guess you will have to wait until after the first of the month to get back on the site. damn those bandwidth limits anyway.

I have been reading the wiki about release parties and all I can say is--

That looks like a big job.

I was curious if the release party is viewed as an opportunity to spread the word about...

And I bet you can write code faster than I can type english. lol

I asked 10 different people that are around here if they knew what IRC was.

7 had never heard of it.

What would be cool would be to burn 15 or 20 copies of the new release and set up in a pizza parlor or where ever we could get permission and maybe come up with a couple of old laptops just to...

Thank you so much. I know these beginners questions must become boring, but after five hours of messing with the thing, it was a blessing to get an answer. Thank you.

Online or face to face?

Now I see.

The process is fairly simple with Chatzilla. It's the 'help' that you get that is incredibly archaic and convoluted.

The first thing I learned that had to be done when downloading...

Have you thought about simply incorporating the pyGtk and python libraries into your installation program and setting them to install as part of the package?

Having been a long time 'Windows...

Okay. After an hour or so of search and thanks to one member putting a link in a message, I was able to find the Wiki. It is somewhat non-intuitive, but it does have a lot of information. Now I just...

I downloaded the irc client 'chatzilla' for firefox and now I find that I have no idea how to use it. I have followed the faq and quick start patterns that I found on the chatzilla website, but I am...
