Is this question permitted in Askubuntu: askubuntu.com/questions/99323/cinnamon-desktop-without-panel
 
Epic failure: nitroreader.com
Guess what format the EULA for the application is in?
Yup, that's right - it's a PDF!
 
why failure
it is a pdf reader that has the eula in pdf
 
How can you agree to the terms in the PDF if you don't have a PDF reader...?

is it safe to access so.cl from ubuntu?
 
I have no idea what that is.
 
o.O
 
2:59 PM
@OctavianDamiean it is social networking platform of microsoft
 
Why shouldn't it be safe in that case?
 
mozilla and chrome dispalaying warning message
 
Might be because of the certificate they use. I can't tell.

@OctavianDamiean yeah it is certificate issue,but

@jrg were you able to backup all your data?
and: did you run a test on your new drive? :P
 
Great answer: Can I safely remove Banshee, without breaking Ubuntu? http://askubuntu.com/questions/110784/can-i-safely-remove-banshee-without-breaking-ubuntu/110785?atw=1#110785 #banshee
 
hello guys
 
jrg
6:17 PM
@htorque Yes and yes.
Only "odd" part of the smart test on my new drive was the four power ons, but whatever. shrug
its like when you buy a car, its going to have ~4-10 miles on it already because they had to test it, someone might have driven it around the block a few times at the dealer, etc.
@BrunoPereira also, AMD's drivers have been updated to 12.2, i updated your answer already.
so if you have a AMD card, just go and update already guys. :p
 
@jrg thx <3 I am testing the drivers before updating the answer to include any 12.04 info, installed them this morning
 
jrg
ok, i'll give 'em a whirl as well even though the open source drivers are pretty slick on precise.
ugh, a ubuntu install with all the defaults and none of my extra hands is... not cool.
Its like I got my hand chopped off or something, except I can regrow this hand.

Q: Wired network adapter doesn't function properly when starting Windows.

George EdisonEvery time I start my computer, my wired network adapter stops working - this includes a cold start and resuming from sleep. If I head over to Network and Sharing Center and click Troubleshoot Problems, I am eventually able to get the adapter working again. Here is a screenshot of the last page o...

 
jrg
Ubuntu users - the only people who can regrow their (figurative) hands. :)
 
6:26 PM
Strange network adapter problem.
 
@GeorgeEdison looks like a driver issue
@jrg I like 12.1 drivers better, I already spotted some small issues with the 12.2 ones
 
what the... ?
chromium's incognito logo changed to the other side?
 
Is there a way to completely install network manager or wicd without internet connection? I have downloaded some .deb files which depends on some internet downloads which makes difficult to install it when there is no internet connection at all
 
@BrunoPereira Yes, but I never upgraded the driver - it's the same one that I was using before and it worked fine.
 
do not like
 
6:36 PM
@GeorgeEdison If it is Windows supplied make sure that there was no update on them :/
 
@BrunoPereira I'll check that.
Nope - it doesn't look like it.
 
it's jorge's birthday?
 
@htorque we do not know :(
 
7:13 PM
@JorgeCastro rumors say that it's your birthday, so CONGRATS!
 
7:37 PM
I just update my Ubuntu/Mint remaster: Linux Surfer - Code Name: Annabelle Lee. Thanks to the help here, I was able to do some of the things to make it more secure.
