Hi
My laptop (Celeron M 1.4, 750 MB of RAM) ran YouTube videos, etc., fine
under Windows XP. Now, under Jaunty - which is otherwise great - videos are
just a blurry, slowly stuttering mess.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Somehow, an update some time ago installed Shiretoko as a beta version of
Firefox 3.5. Meanwhile the old version of Firefox remains and also gets
updated from time to time. What's going on? Where did the name Shiretoko
come from anyway?

Thank you, Neil, but I wouldn't have the foggiest idea how to set up a VM
(Virtual Machine?). Can you point me in the right direction?

Hi. I recently read about Globalmenu, used to make Ubuntu have a single menu
bar (panel) at the top of the screen, as on the Mac, instead of having its
own menu *in addition* to the menu of whatever window is open. This saves
screen space and is more elegant, since you only see the menu bar that yo

Dear all
I know I'm a pest with my incessant questions, but things just keep cropping
up...
When a word-processing file is downloaded (e.g. an email attachment), the
following happens on my system:

Hi
Can I expect Word 2002 to run under Wine (on Jaunty)?
I tried to install it, but came to a standstill during the installation, as
the Word installer demanded a restart I couldn't provide.

Hi. I installed Firefox 3.5 using Synapitic. All went well. However, Firefox
hasn't noticed any change and still loads as 3.0.11.
Any thoughts?

quit, but when I try to restart it, it claims to be still running and a
restart of the computer is said to be the solution. In fact it can be forced

ught Jaunty was meant to be quick in this department.
Do computers running Ubuntu gradually get slower and slower like Windows

Hi (again)! I'm a relative newcomer to Ubuntu, a refugee from the Windows
Wonderland, and I like it very much. However, lately the hard disk churns

Among other things, it stopped Add/Remove from working. Matthew Daubney gave
me the help, via this forum, to fix that (Many thanks, again). So, go

Synaptic has no problem. I'm running 9.04.
Can anyone help? Paul
