Jun 17, 2011How do i roll back firefox5beta to firefox4 and keep updating to the latest stable releases w/out upgrading to beta? The only extension that isn't working is FEBE which is incompatible w/ firefox5beta (profile, extension and preference backup). Have to use FEBE beta7 under Firefox4 so I don't think a compatible release for Firefox5beta is going to come out any time soon.

Nov 27, 2010I am trying to use Skype beta on my acer aspire one with ubuntu 10.10. The video runs brilliantly and i can also here my wife from the other end but she cannot hear me. Apparently something is fishy with my mic input. I tried alsamixer and everything is in unmute. My alsa version is 1.0.23. The only think she hears is a loud hissing noise which is normally my bat voice but she doesnt need to know that. I can record my voice in the sound recorder but nothing comes out in Skype!

Apr 4, 2010So here's the schedule for 10.04:
April 8th, 2010 - Beta 2 release;
April 22nd, 2010 - Release Candidate;
April 29th, 2010 - Final release of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
If I have 10.04 beta 1, could I just continue to update and not have to burn another disk to install? Or do I have to burn the beta 2 and reinstall if I want it?

View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: 10.4 Less Stable Than 9.X?
May 25, 2010I've never really had a problem with ubuntu 9.4 and 9.10.In 9.10 I even used KDE 4 and even that went quite well (for being KDE 4). I have never had a freeze or crash in Ubuntu 9.4 and 9.10, and had been using those for 9 months or so. But ever since I upgraded to 10.4, many things went wrong. I think it's less than a month ago since I upgraded. Remember that I've never had freezes or crashes in 9.4 and 9.10.
Now so far I've had:
-2 times suddenly the mouse lags and I have to reboot
-1 time the screen went black and I had to reboot
-1 time KDE4 was acting strange, constantly giving messages about that it was going to disable composite rendering due to being slow. Yes, the system was slow indeed. Had to reboot.
-less stable KDE4.4 than the KDE4.3 of ubuntu 9.10: the new KDE4 version did more weird things like moving around icons when never asked for and being generally unstable
-many, very many, problems and obvious slowness due to nepomuk and virtuoso-t
-I installed KDE 3.5 after the KDE4 problems above happened. But in KDE 3.5 I've ALSO had mouse lag (after pressing "ok" on a window about installing updates).
-I use this OS mainly for Java development. The upgrade to Ubuntu 10.4 ruined all JDK 1.6 related packages and provided no easy way to install them, so I had to do it manually.
With Ubuntu 9.10, working productively went much better than with 10.4.I mean, ever since Windows 98, I've never seen anything as unstable as KDE4.4 on Ubuntu 10.4! I mean it, with what I've encountered, this comparison is really fair imho.Did anyone else experience that Ubuntu 10.4 is less stable than 9.X, or am I the only one?
Ubuntu :: Is 10.10 A Stable Version
Nov 10, 2010Why does update manager doesn't tell me that ubuntu 10.10 is out? I'm running 10.04.1 LTS. I have to do alt-F2 "update-manager -d" in order to see the 10.10 message even if ubuntu is config to notice me of normal releases.And then just before the update begins, the official readme says that 10.10 is (at the moment) a RELEASE CANDIDATE version. Just an old not-updated readme?Why does Ubuntu official home page annunces 10.10 as a stable version?

Ubuntu :: Stable Are The Updated Versions?
Jan 15, 2010Trying to get the thunderbird localization working I briefly checked thunderbird 3, to see if it had the same issue. Now, the problem is, I accidentally installed new versions of Firefox 3.5 and XULrunner. If I remove them, then many other packets get removes due to dependencies. Same if I try to force version. If I simply remove the repos, then synaptic reports them as broken. Is there anything I can do to solve this? How stable are the updated versions? How often do they get updated?

Mar 22, 2011Is this in a PPA yet? I see a tarball on the Mozilla site but hate tarball installs if I can do it through a package. I just ran the Update Manager and the Firefox (Namoroka) link in my menu is 3.6.x.
I'm running Minefield right now from the bleeding-edge repos and would prefer to switch to FF4 stable... is there an (easy) way to do that and keep my settings and add-ons?

View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Networking :: Wpa2-aes - Can't Get A Stable Connection
May 16, 2010Does anyone have a way to use this type of encryption? I have read many posts but have not gotten a solution yet. I am trying to get this to work at a friend's house. I know the SSID and the super-long ascii code (with symbols?). gnome nm and wicd have been useless. I have been connecting to my school's wpa2 using wpa_supplicant + dhclient directly, so I tried adding it in there:
network={
ssid="name"
scan_ssid=0
proto=WPA
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
pairwise=CCMP
group=CCMP
psk="horribly long thing"
}
What happens is a string of connects and then immediate disconnects when runnign wpa_supplicant. It says "CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED - disconnect event - remove keys" then starts all over. Can't get a stable connection but I must be close?

View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Stable On Livecd Crashes After Installation
May 22, 2011I can boot off of the Natty LiveCD, run it for days fine. Install, everything's smooth. Boot up and run some updates. That's where it hung the first time around. Display froze, cursor and keyboard would not respond, audio was stuck looping. This was a pain because it corrupted some stuff with apt. Any point from power-on onward is "eligible" for a crash. It seems to be random, but there also seems to be a trend of it crashing earlier on as time proceeds. This is a custom built computer, and I've tried other Linux distros like Debian and 9.04 UNR, they all crash somewhere in the install. Leaves me thinking it's a hardware fault, but why would it run perfectly fine off of CD but die when installed then?

I know just enough about Ubuntu to properly break it, but I am at a loss as to how to fix this, since it doesn't give me the option of opening a terminal.

Jul 15, 2011I'm about to install Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit, and I'm wondering if I should install that Flash 11 64 bit beta? If so, a couple of questions: Should it perform better than the 32-bit version?
- If I install the 32-bit or an older version before, can I overwrite with the new one or is a full clean install preferred? How do I install it once I download it from here? [URL].. Is it really as simple as replacing the *.so file? Does Chromium/Chrome need this too or just Firefox?
