Occasionally when I'm using the window selector a subset of the windows will be gone (usually a few of the top ones). And when I click on the window selector it will highlight one of the application icons on the panel. And if I click on that icon usually the windows come back to the window selector.

Ok so im reasonably new to ubuntu.

I've had it installed and running on virtual machines for a while now and i've just received a spare 500gb hard drive.

So the setup i have is
1Tb = Storage
500Gb = Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
500Gb = Ubuntu 9.10

At first all installed and ran fine.

The windows operating system was set to default and to boot into ubuntu i had to F8 into boot menu to choose the other 500Gb hard drive which would boot ubuntu.

This was a pain so I tried to follow some tutorials about EasyBCD
and setting it up so I could boot ubuntu through windows Boot manager.

From that point if I choose ubuntu from the windows boot manager it would say something like \NST\nst-*** **** ***** ****.mcr (that was a guess) cannot be found blah blah reset windows boot manager using the repair DVD. I knew what it was talking about so reset the Boot manager in EasyBCD to normal.

But now no if it try booting off the ubuntu hard drive grub locks up.

Sorry If thats long but ive learnt from helping others that the more info you can give the easer it is.

Im happy to answer any questions aswell.

Thanks heaps,

Nathan

Are there any Linux-native C++ IDEs (Integrated Development Environments) that are also open source? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

When linking to them, APT links would be recommended. That is, if they're in the repos.

background:i wanted to install both win 7 and Ubuntu on my laptop i shrunked my win 7 partition and the installed ubuntu off the ubuntu cd.Every thing worked perfectly had internet everyhting .

Problem:Then i shutdown my laptop and the next time i booted my pc it went straight to win 7 without giving me the option to boot ubuntu .

now i have searched google and there suppose to be a boot manger that gives you the option of chooing between 7 and ubuntu on startup. . please help me this my first time using ubuntu .

what I did to configure the network:

1) remove network manager

sudo apt-get remove networkmanager

2) make ip address entries in /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/resolve.conf files.

/etc/network/interfaces

------------
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.79
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.0.200
------------

/etc/reolve.cong

name server 202.56.215.54
name server 202.56.215.55


when I do networking restart it is showing

"reconfiguring network" [OK].

However Google.com is an unknown host. I am getting the feeling I am missing something. The network adapter is showing green led . Does it have something to do with the microsoft networking that's running in my office?

Will greatlty appreciate all help from a Linux newbee but a Unix old timer.

I have tried to add "emerald --replace" in startup application but it is not every time when i startup system again. I have to run the command again. How do i run it at startup.

I have a pavilion dv7 1260us entertainment laptop. I love watching my HD movies and streaming TV. My comphas the ATI Radeon HD 3200 graphics card with 1918 mb dedicated memory. I want the best picture quality I can get while remaining stable?

1) Should I keep the Ubuntu drivers that came with the installation??

a)If not should I download driver from the manufacturer or is there a better place to get drivers?

2) Should I find how to get the ATI (user interface thingy) or is that just a waste of time?

Thanks Guys and Gals for all you help!!!!

Here's the situation:
There are three computers in the household. A Windows laptop, a Mac, and my PC running Ubuntu. The laptop and mac both get a wireless connection by means of the Airport Express. The laptop can easily view the Mac and can even use its printer (I'm pretty sure. I haven't tried it, but since it recognizes the printer is there, i assume it can use it.)
Anyway, neither of the computers can recognize my desktop pc. Is this a problem that can be solved with Samba or is it impossible due to the Airport Express (like I believe it to be)?
Also, is there a tool I can use to monitor all traffic going through the router? This isn't necessarily important. There's just an aesthetic to it that I like.
