On a side note, opera was NOT installed for me.

BUT, there was a opera config file on home. Clearly it was tested with opera.

I use 11.11 and just love it.

It really is advisable to NOT use standby.

Very hard on ram and the system and rarely works every time.

It really is advisable to just shut it down, done right Linux has a 41 to 46 second boot to use as it is.

update manager

gdeb

synaptic needs to be closed.

Thats just a error saying resources are being used by another processes generic message.

Going to need more detail bud.

Hardware ?

Netbook ?

detail on errors

etc.

Try running it with nomodset

see what happens.

Just tells it to NOT use kernel driver for GPU and use software drivers.

Comes up with ?

11.5 wont install into natty, thus mint 11 ether. Driver is made for Maverick. your card will run on the cat 11.4 equivalent built into mint 11/Ubuntu natty Just use the additional driver tool found in administration. Activate the ATI FGLRX driver. FYI to install .run Just right click and select per...

allow me to point something out. The new compiz uses a different filing system then the older one. If you change a setting it will create a new folder with configs and starts your session over for the first time. After the first change, all else will work fine. Change a setting and let all reset and...

download and install via synaptic plymouth-theme-mint-logo plymouth-theme-mint-text You will notice natty also has the splash removed, for a reason. Natty changed how the startup took place with GPU drivers via kernel. Works fine on most systems to use the splash, on some it does not. Arv3n - might ...

Yes - tested as fully working on Intel x64 as well i3 i5 i7 tested Install is simple, use gdeb install tool , they are just deb packages pre compiled for ubuntu based distro's. There will be 2 header packs, 1 marked all and the other marked header. You need both to build needed headers. You also nee...

Ok that was a ball looking threw pages and pages of some sweet desktops.

Some awesome work here.

updating kernels has never been so easy for Linux these days. you will just have to play with kernel sets to find the one the delivers all. Remember to download BOTH header packs and image to build headers etc. Here you find pre compiled pre patch kernels http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainlin...

and how do i run a file in terminal? go in terminal and type run:path of file ? Several ways, but the easiest way is to just select run in terminal once it is set as executable. Or once it is installed , use alt F2 and check the box to run in terminal. You can add sudo to the start of it to run as ...

didn't even know it was broke lol.

Works great here on every last system I have installed it on.

Had to upgrade emerald and add the expansion packs. But that was it, all else works great, even cube and all effects.

VIA went out of business years back.

My experience has been very pore and unreliable performance out of via since ubuntu 9.10.

very nice looking for sure.

Also liking the os.

simple solution for now is to make a custom launcher. use this code killall gnome-panel might take up to 6 to 8 times to get all apps to load. more apps you use in the panel, more likely the issue. The cause has been around a long time. Apps fail to load in time and time out or load the threads in t...

One of the top reasons we use linux. To have it the way we want it with out dictation from a corporation. Telling us they know better then us what is best for us lol. Dark light it is all about the user. You like dark I like light. Freedom, got to love it when we have it and it isn't just an illusio...

No human technology is infallible. Regardless of the software used, Hardware will always remain an issue till we progress to more perfection. So yes, I have seen updates go bad on Linux to. Just no were near as often as I do on windows based systems. It is very possible that an update didn't install...

All it does is installs a ppa that will allow you to use a new , more updated flash on x64 systems.

The problem isn't an issue on x32 systems. All ya have to do is fully update x32.
