The files in /usr/share/applications are *.desktop files. They are simply text files that hold the shortcut data. If you want to reorganize, I would not recommend editing those files, but using the application for editing the menu (alacarte)
You can get to it three ways (I'm assuming you are usi...
needs peer review tho, didnt know it did that. hi5 to SE for not being retarded with edits.
I have a virtual machine running Ubuntu 10.04 32-bit. Using the tools provided with VirtualBox, I have added a DisplayLink device to the VM and created the following xorg.conf file:

Identifier "Server Layout"

I've never seen <aside>, but I believe it may be possible to get it to line up as you wish - I would suggest using KompoZer actually (to automate things)
I could try to give you by hand but it's a bit tricky with CSS at times ;)
I've already decided not to bother with anything older than firefox 3.6 :-) But I can't even get the aside to go on the left. display:inline seems to put it on the same line, but only once.
@StefanoPalazzo yeah, but i managed to get my flag weight of 504.???? to 533.6631 in only a few hours o.o
hell I dont even ask questions anymore, nor do I answer them... i just go around sifting through the long list of questions and answers with /review, and flag them as I go, where appropriate
I was thinking about doing the whole site in CSS, so as to have a completely empty html. But it doesn't work, you can't have markup in content: ""; :-(
I'd like to be able to create a package that doesnt contain any code or programs itself, but instead installs other packages that exist in the repositories onto a computer, sort of how the ubuntu-restricted-extras package does?
A meta-package like this can be created with a tool called equivs which will create a package with just dependency information.
From the equivs manpage:
To use equivs, you do:
a. cd /tmp
b.1. equivs-control ns-control
or
b.2. cp /usr/share/doc/equivs/examples/<a control file> ns-control...
My friend Smith upgraded his Ubuntu from Maverick to the recent 11.04 alpha release, though I haven't tried myself, but it seems like the appearance is changed a lot.
Now, he wants to disable those Windows-7-like features, whenever possible, such as Win+NUM shortcuts, is it possible?
that's the point. despite its name, the "testing and discussion forum" isn't about writing how you like things (or how you hate that ubuntu isn't exactly how you want it to be) - it's all about testing and development discussions. besides, it's also the wrong place for negative critisism - constructive posts belong to the appropriate mailing lists.
for a while it was fine, but with every new release the quality of that forum sunk to a new low.
@Takkat what are "most people" in the first place :P a lot of forum users think they represent the typical ubuntu user - that's where all the fail begins.
I wake up to a discussion on how un-cool the Ubuntu forums are?! No offense the the Ubuntu forums team, but I never really got into it. Was too… seedy for my tastes.
Hi,
Im very upset with the last Update on my EEEPC.
Everything ist lagging as hell. It wasnt a Problem before.
Personaly I dont like the new design, but I wont care if it works.
But the "new" way of browsing files suxx for sure. Slow too and not very intuitiv.
Sometimes there is the Icon to go ba...
@experimentX There's a way to do it - you can set which disk to install grub on with a command in the command line. I'm not 100% sure of it at the moment

You only have to look at Wikipedia to find a long long list of Ubuntu derivatives - should we allow, or even actively encourage, questions regarding these on Ask Ubuntu?
I think that our site name (AUs) is a bit misleading. That might be the reason why we have to many offtopic and Why is this version not in the repositories questions lately
more and more new users read Ask Ubuntu and think, "nice lets ask Ubuntu!"
you know the problem is not only the low quality questions actually ... it is also the users that answer such questions right away just because they don't understand how SE is supposed to work and of course all the other experienced users that don't educate the not experienced users
that sucks, my work intranet will not allow me to add PPA's to my sources list. The key never authenticates meaning only the default PPA's are allowed through the firewall :(
