Hi everyone,
Im just wondering what everyone's experiences are with the latest Ubuntu 10.04 version? Is it stable enough for a working environment?
I require it for web development, so using VMs, IDEs, connecting to VPNs, SSH to servers, etc.
Im currently using 9.04 and found 9.10 unstable and problematic at times (such as problems connecting to VPN)
Any input would be appreciated, thanks!
Mac and Windows Vista have such pretty user interfaces with all the transparencies and stuff. Is there anything for Ubuntu Linux to improve the way it looks?
Hi.
I've just made the switch to Ubuntu on my main PC and I've been looking for a media player that can:
Play all the usual video formats
Rate (and ideally, tag) each file
Display thumbnails for each file
Other than that there isn't much I'm after.
Banshee comes close, but doesn't display thumbnails.
I've Google'd lots but I'm running out of search terms to try.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Cheers!

I just installed Ubuntu Server 12.04 in an office machine with openSSH, DNS and LAMP Server. I also made the IP static and I can access the server in my office premises easily, but when I try to access my server from my home it is not working.
I know I have to make some changes and need to install some firewall (I had just gone through with a couple of posts) but I guess an expert advise will save my time here.

I've just installed Ubuntu 9.10 Edition in VMWare Fusion; the host is Mac OS X. I installed it successfully and I was even able to use. After shutting it down and reopening it, it no longer works. Here's what I see:
I've checked the Virtual Machine settings. It appears as running. I waited for a long time, but there no response yet. Is there anything I can do apart from reinstalling it?
When i upload my rails app via SFTP to production server which is running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS all cyrillic characters in my files look like this:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/347209/chars.png
As you can see, only parts of words are broken. And because of this rails app doesn't start with syntax error.
Also i'm getting errors like
ActionView::Template::Error (incompatible character encodings: ASCII-8BIT and UTF-8)
How do I speed up the latest version of Ubuntu on a VIA C7-M 1.6 GHz based netbook (HP 2133)? For example, full screen videos are very slow in the default configuration.
I have an Ubuntu Virtualbox guest with two network interface, eth0 (NAT) and eth1 (bridged).
I want to connect to a PPTP VPN using eth1, but I don't know how to specify which interface to use. If i just try:
sudo pon myvpn nodetach
It fails with:
Using interface ppp0
Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/pts/1
Modem hangup
Connection terminated.
Looking at routes with route seems to indicate that eth0 is being used:
x.x.x.x.no 10.0.2.2 255.255.255.255 UGH 0 0 0 eth0

What's a good C and GDK+ 2 integrated development environment (IDE) for developing in Ubuntu?
Please state Pros and Cons for each suggestion.
Notes:
I'm used to using Visual C++ for Windows and C++

Thanks
I have a Intel Atom PC that I'm shoe-horning into a role as a media server. I have a 5.1 surround sound speaker set that works pretty well. I want to be able to take the optical out from my cable box or PS3 and route it into the PC so that I can play it surround sound. Is there a low price video card that has 5.1 and optical in that works with Ubuntu?
