Working with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

I have been heavily investing time in setting up two new Ubuntu 10.04 installs, one a server and the other on my primary notebook. The upgrade process via apt, failed most certainly. Time after time, it would not work. Finally after doing a bit of research there was a bug discovered when dual booting that affects certain configurations. Coincidentally I was in that scenario. I simply backed up the data from the second partition [an old win32 install] and then used the entire disk for the installation.

Migrating to Juanty Server...

So for as long as I can remember I have been using a BSD of some sort for my server needs. I am going to officially make the switch to Linux and Ubuntu on this occasion. As my time is becoming more and more occupied I have less time to tend to things. And honestly I have found no quick and effective way of easily and seamlessly updating/upgrading packages that I like in either OpenBSD or FreeBSD which are the two primary BSD flavors I use. Although there are several reasons I'm making this move, that is just one of the things that's been nagging me for a while and helped sway my decision.

How to fix Ubuntu 9.04 Sound Problem !! [SOLVED]

OK, I have solved a huge problem that is floating around right now with many users who have UPGRADED from an older version of Ubuntu. Just as I performed the upgrade, I had no audio, and no multimedia audio output either. Even once I fixed the audio, applications like Amarok didn't work! I've got the fix right here tested and working on this very machine.

Upgrading to Ubuntu Jaunty Jackelope 9.04 - In Progress...

Well I'm currently upgrading my notebook to 9.04 atm. I've finally got migrated to my new living quarters just hours ago and have managed to get wifi access setup using my hacked wrt54g. There was 1131mb of package upgrades for me personally but I have a ton of applications installed so I wouldn't expect anything less. Once again, for the last several major upgrades the interface is so far working flawlessly and taking off without a hitch. I'm about to sign off for the night but by morning all should be complete :D.
