Switching to Linux on a MacBook(2.1) Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit - Day 12

[POWAAHranger]

Can you please explain why Evolution is a "piece of shit" in your opinion?

[DefconComputers]

@POWAAHranger Let's see... it started to resend my old sent emails, it re-arranged them in it's interface in a way I could'nt re-arrange them, even broke the single account into multiple accounts, would take forever to tell me I had new emails, and in general pissed me off. I'll stick to my web mail on linux or use thunderbird

They fixed most of the bugs already. Ubuntu 10.04 had LOTS of bugs this release. Everything should be fixed in the next release hopefully.

If your new to Linux I reccomend the 32 bit until you get the hang of it. Plus don't install 32 bit flash on a 64 bit os. Once I learnt not to be a skript kiddie and swapped over to 64 bit everything was common sense and never had a problem since, Linux is the best thing ever and incredibly fast after switching from windows 7.

@J0RDSKI I can say I never tried to use a 64bit Linux OS before this so it does have some oddities. But in my opinion those oddities should have never existed.

Thank you for the author. This video is nice.

I happened the accident when I call to someone at driving. After that matter, I am afraid of receiving the calling or calling to someone. Then I looked many sorts bluetooth. I found there are many kinds on yeedong. com. I bought a beautiful one. If you want to buy the bluetooth, maybe I can give you the sound advice.

*Is using a linux laptop right now*

*Double taps*

Well, I'll be damned... You CAN right click without using the buttons...

[DefconComputers]

@Edgewalker001 I guess your driver might be working better with your hardware than mine =)

[Edgewalker001]

@DefconComputers Actually I didn't even know you can right click by tapping with both fingers XD

[aleschray]

have you disabled bluetooth from running at start up?

[DefconComputers]

@aleschray I have thought of doing it, but not sure how to verify that it is actually off if the program is'nt reporting the status. Unless the management program allows bluetooth to work in the first place.

[aleschray]

@DefconComputers its off, you can check in your system monitor. also for right clicking you can try tapping the bottom right corner of your touchpad and upper right for middle click. i dont know if this also applies to macs but worth a try.

@DefconComputers Install "Ubuntu Tweak" disable blue tooth at start up...

next simple drag the blue tooth icon to the panel from your main menu, so now it wont to on at start up, and you still have the icon... hope this help...

[DefconComputers]

@maw88ify I just turned it off at startup and it seems to help. The wireless still just up and dies for no reason about every 4 to 5 hours. I'll have to get a "cheap" dedicated linux laptop for future videos. Several of the issues I am having I think are due to the stuborness of the Mac.

the flash is because if u install a 64 bit os, the ubuntu restricted xtras install 32 bit flash, so it not as good

hey good luck , i been using ubuntu for about 2 years, exclusively and non-mayor problems
