Thank you for your reply. I would prefer a Gnome tool, in order to avoid installing all of KDE, but if you ensure me that DigiKam does not need me to import the photos, I will consider it as well.

I am trying to organize my photographs with tags. The last time I have been doing this was about three years ago, so I have a lot of pictures to organize.

All of the photographs should have...

It turns out I solved it thanks to this thread.

It was enough to boot with the Super grub disk and install the standard grub in place of grub-efi.

I have just bought a new PC, namely a HP Pavilion 700 series p7-1015itm, and I tried installing Ubuntu on it.

The fact is, no matter what I try, it seems that Grub does not get installed. After a...

I need to replace my laptop, and since I do not really need to take it anywhere I would like to buy a desktop PC, so that I can get a bigger screen. At the same time, the space on my desk is limited,...

I am about to change my computer, and I am looking for a compact PC. I'd rather not choose a laptop, since I prefer to be able to use a bigger screen, but I don't have much space to use a tower...

Thank you for the tip!

I am using Gnome Shell on Ubuntu 11.10 with the default Adwaita theme.

The only thing that is a little annoying is that, unlike other applications, Eye of Gnome (the default photo visualizer)...

Uhm... but I do want to get notifications of new emails on my usual Gmail account...

I am looking for a solution which will allow me to sync contacts between my two laptops with Ubuntu and my Android phone. Right now all my contacts are saved in Evolution, but I may switch if...

Thank you all for the replies. It seems that 64 bit is the way to go.

Now, do I have to reinstall everything from scratch, or can I just download the 64 bit kernel from synaptic and start using...

Can you describe in a little more detail? What did you have to compile manually? Do you have to compile anything today?

What with notoriously problematic (and proprietary) software like Flash or...

When I bought my laptop with 4GB of RAM a couple years ago, the common wisdom was that support for 64 bit in Linux was still poor, hence it was a better choice to stick with 32 bit, even if that...

I am not worried about Zeitgeist sending my data online, I am worried about Zeitgeist saving this data on my computer. I am well aware that every OS saves timestamps and some other information, and...

Thank you for your advice. It's not really a matter of porn. It is creepy to have all I do recorded in this way. It is sad to see that desktops are going down this way.

I recently installed Natty. While browsing System Monitor, I noticed that the processes


zeitgeist-daemon
zeitgeist-datah
zeitgeist-datahub

are running in the background.

Now, if I...

What I actually mean is that I switch between various MPD clients, recently mostly Ario. One of the good things about MPD is that you can transparently change client whenever you want without ever...

I have a fresh install of Natty with a ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3400 Series and the proprietary drivers.

By the MeMenu I mean the menu near the top-right corner where one can control mail, feeds,...

I have installed Unity yesterday, and everything runs smoothly, except for the following issue.

Most of the times I open a program (either Evolution or Liferea) from the MeMenu, it appears shifted...

Do you mean that one can have both and choose at login?

Ok, now I understand better - thank you. :-)

Thank you all. Yes, I am aware that installing Gnome Shell will break my system, and that is why I asked for an easy way to go back rather than the option to switch at login. Doing a PPA purge from...
