Linux-friendly mp3 player

historychick49 wrote in ubuntu_users Jun 19, 2013 14:56

My Sansa Fuze+ died a few weeks ago (maybe a week after putting Rockbox on it...) and it doesn't look like I'll be able to fix it. So I'm starting to look for a new mp3 player. I'm doing my own research, but I also wanted to ask for any recommendations here! I only have a few requirements:

Must be easy to manage on Linux (duh)
Must have at least 8 ( Read more... )

Another Ubuntu question.

I first made this laptop dual boot to Ubuntu about a year or two ago, I forget how long ago. But the first time I did it, I didn't give it enough memory, and had to get advice on how to expand the memory Ubuntu got. Well, I'm finding the 10 gigs I gave it a little restrictive now, and I have no clue what happened to the original instructions on how ( Read more... )

Essentially new, have a Samba question

I've been using Ubuntu for a few months, but still I'm essentially new. I'm not a programmer at all, just someone who got tired of Windows constantly effing up even though I ran frequent virus scans and stuff ( Read more... )

Firefox session manager fail

rhia_starsong wrote in ubuntu_users Apr 06, 2013 15:09

Hi, I am having trouble with version 20.0 of Firefox. I have session manager as an add-on, with the options to restore my windows/tabs from last time in both Firefox preferences as well as session manager. However, in the last few days, session manager no longer seems to function: it is not creating backups, when I restart my browser it just ( Read more... )

Is it just me, or is Eclipse 4.x still super flaky? It randomly selects blocks of text when I click to position the cursor, sometimes stops displaying menus and tooltips, and a whole slew of other annoyances that never troubled me on 3.x.

system errors and update manager

rhia_starsong wrote in ubuntu_users Nov 22, 2012 09:42

I just started having this problem about 30 minutes ago. I am running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, and the update manager came up while I was working saying I had important security updates to do with Firefox. I told it to run, but it does that thing where it greys out the window because the system's thinking too hard, and wouldn't work. Eventually, it ( Read more... )

halp!, update problems

Screensaver?

rhia_starsong wrote in ubuntu_users Oct 08, 2012 21:13

Okay, new question: I can't seem to find an option for a screensaver in 12.04LTS. I installed the Fspot programme I used in 10.04 for my screensaver, and it says I can set it as the screensaver, but that doesn't work. I've searched the Software Centre and nothing exists on screensavers. Where is this option?

halp!
