    [ubuntu] Re: Few random odd problems.

    FF3 includes GTK theme support so maybe the theme wasn't compatible. That's just a guess but it seems possible.

    [ubuntu] Re: Samba Help - Help - Help ?!

    Do you see the XP computer listed when you go to Places -> Network? If so, can you click on it and see the shared XP folder? If not then you probably need to share the folder in XP.

    [ubuntu] Re: Problem adding new screenlets

    I was able to just drag it into the screenlets window to install. I got a warning but it still worked.

    Click Yes.

    It then showed up in the list of available screenlets.

    Hope this helps.
