Hi Ubuntu'ers... long time no speak!
Wondering if anyone knew how i can automatically mount my secondary
hard drive using ubuntu on boot. Every time i boot the thing I have
to click on the drive in naultilus... then re-set up my samba shares
on that drive.
Cheers!

I've also encountered the aforementioned issues on both nVidia and on Intel
graphics cards. Though, in my ezxperience the dwesktop is more functional

Hi all,
With the Bug Jam upon us can I ask we not only concentrate on the bugs
in Launchpad, but also consider enabling the proposed repositories for
hardy and intrepid and help test where possible the fixes that have been
made and just require testing and fix confirmation to allow them to be

Hi all,

Hi,
You can run Ubuntu (or any other linux distribution) quite happily
from USB. A lot of people do because they want a more portable
computing environment, but don't have a laptop.
Infact I'm running Ubuntu via USB on my laptop as I write this.รข

I see no problem with this other than you must make sure you do not
accidentally unplug the USB drive while in use as that may result in
dataloss depending on what you are doing.
Just be careful though and all should be ok.

Pulseaudio is just another layer above alsa providing mixing amongst
other things. Alsa is still used for outputting the sounds.
