Thank you so much for this! My brain hurt trying to figure this out and you saved me! :D

bump? :-/

Hi people,

On my fresh ubuntu 10.04 install at work the indicator applet's messaging menu gives me a list of the mail accounts in evolution, along with an unread mail count.

However at home,...

You should try adding "Notification Area" to your panel.

You're welcome!

I have to tell you, though, that this script is now ancient (in Ubuntu terms).

I guess some people liked my idea and now we have a much more comprehensive (and multilingual)...

If you're using PulseAudio for sound and everything is working except your games (e.g. Supertux2, Sauerbraten etc) you should install this package:

libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio

And presto! Your...

Maybe your webcam is defective? I've never heard of drivers throwing a webcam out of focus :/

Also you could try the driver installation using sudo instead of a root account?

Are you sure? Hibernation works that way, it looks as if it's booting normally but is much faster. Perhaps your laptop isn't hibernating at all, this usually means you haven't got enough swap for it...

My logitech webcam uses the spca driver included in ubuntu 8.04 and worked in a fresh install without my having to install anything by hand. Just try tinkering with your...

Well playing with obsolete operating systems that are 7 and 10 years old will do that to your PC :D

Try these instructions, I am sure you'll find something in here helpful:

Recovering Ubuntu...

Well, windows is not particularly well suited for networking, usually people use linux for Internet sharing as it's much more flexible and reliable. However the basics are these:

You have to setup...

Maybe some of them are hidden and really not meant for you to access. However if you're knowledgeable enough to use kismet and airodump, you really should be able to figure this out on your own :)

I'd say that using NetworkManager (the small "two screens" icon on your top right hand side) to configure your wireless is a breeze, at most two clicks and a password. Certainly easier than...

Try these links:
Make Gnome look like OSX

Linux desktop imitating OSX

And do try using the forum's search in the future, this question has already been asked by many. It will save you time!

I realise this is not strictly an Ubuntu-specific question, but it came up on my laptop I use to run xubuntu. I apologise if this is not the right forum.

I have an Advent 5480DVD laptop (Same as...

Hattrick Organizer is now Open Source too! :)

Too bad I can't get it to work in Edgy! (Worked in Dapper) :(

Many thanks for the info & script guys!

Although they're no use to me, I have to say:

This is a very nice resource for newbies. Thanks a lot for bringing it to our attention!

These are quite basic graphics/photo editing terms. MS Paint & Kolourpaint do not serve the same purpose as Photoshop & GIMP.

It is not allowed to include cvscedega in ubuntu?

Just my 2 euro cents:

I find gimpshop much more intuitive and easy to use than Gimp. Too bad its creator uses Mac OSX and we get the .debs much, much later.

Here's a tip for all the people who have been frustrated by this:

In order to fully share a folder (read/write), right-click on it and select Share folder. Select Share with: SMB, type in a Name:...

I don't mean to upset you, but the gdm login screen is the same as in Breezy as far as I can tell, and what is so professional about the gnome splash's "Ubuntu Dapper Beta" in huge ugly font?

Just my 2 cents...

I, too, find the dark brown background depressing so I made one of my own (shameless plug) with brighter colours, which ties in better with the new orange stuff and makes me...

Thanks, I made it :)
