The syntax to ask Google to find pages that link to a particular place is link: and to find pages on a particular site is site:. So I believe that to find all links to ubuntuone.com on ubuntu.com, you'd put this into Google: link:ubuntuone.com site:ubuntu.com More details here: https://support.go

I'm on 12.04, and having tons of trouble with Chrome, but not on Ancestry. But I do see that the post you're directed to was published in 2010, so I should think the info was out of date anyway. I don't have the problems in Firefox, so I think the problem is Chrome rather than Ancestry or my OS.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Google Chrome

Chrome does occasionally have trouble with ancestry.co.uk (as it does with other forms to varying degrees in my experience) but you shouldn't have to do anything to fix it, and if the instructions are from 2010 then they are very out of date so just ignore them. These things eventually either come

[ubuntu-uk] Google Earth .....

Hi there My sister asked me to pop over there this morning because she really wanted to use Google Earth. It is not difficult to make it work, but I had to get and install stuff by the commandline. Not something I could have talked her through over the phone. I wonder if Google Earth has b

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Google Chrome OS Announced

I think it's still early days for those kinds of concerns. The Chrome OS will have to face being the new contender for at least a little while, yet. And like others have said, we want some high profile non-Apple competition to raise awareness of the choices available. If that is achieved, it'll cha

One thought I had about the Google Chrome OS is Microsoft, or the european legislators will push for the web browser to removed from the OS to match what they expect from Microsoft. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Google Chrome OS Announced

An OS from google can only be a good thing for ubuntu, getting peoples heads around the idea of alternative OSs. More high profile choices will equal more progress. Right now almost anyone i speak to has no idea what the OS is, and that you can even run a non apple computer on anything but windows.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Google Chrome OS Announced

Alan I think Google will have to look at partners in this and as Ubuntu has a very large user base, surely, it would be foolish to ignore them. But then again they did ignore Sun's java for Google Chrome. With Google introducing new HTML 5 (Web application 1) goodies (Google Wave) this year and w

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Google Chrome OS Announced

The telegraph have also made the same mistake as the Beeb, even worse though is some of the so called non-linux tech news sites have made the same presumptions. For me is the HTML 5 standard, does that mean Google might go the opensourced route with their media playing etc. Dale On Wed, Jul 8, 2

I generally find the Beeb's tech and IT reporting to be limited. There are some things the Beeb does very well, but Tech isn't one of them. 2009/7/8 Steve Cook > -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- > Hash: SHA1 > > James Milligan wrote: > > http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009/07/introducing-googl
