All my plugins work, and so do my extensions. My only problem is that every so often the whole thing stops responding and crashes. Although it hasn't happened in a while.

hmm, same here. I might use Epiphany for a while until that bug is ironed out

ubuntu-8.04-desktop-i386.iso (download torrent) - TPB

(as of right now 366 seeders)

Here are other list of mirrors:
J's Ubuntu torrent mirror

I upgraded from the previous version, I didn't install it new.

Yeah my old nvidia drivers were complaining about some modules being built in but I went and installed the latest nvidia drivers and it works fine. They'll probably have an update eventually or you can just go to nvidia's website. Until then use the driver "nv," the open source nvidia driver. It only has limited 3d support and really isn't all that good.

I'm using the nVidia 173.08 beta drivers, it's running really good! Tried out he ETQW demo, ran very smoothly on Hardy.

That's odd. I have not had a major issue with FF3. It was FF2 that kept crashing for me.

Hey try going to 4chan. Open up two boards as tabs in FF3 and click between them. Tell me if you notice that FF3 messes up. You have to scroll down and then back up for the page to be displayed, otherwise it seems like it's not being refreshed (graphically). This is the only problem I've had with it btw.

I just did, no issue here. It renders fine.

1veedo · 05-02-2008

Hm. This is what it does to me when I switch tabs from 4chan's homepage to an image board.

It doesn't refresh even for applications overtop 4chan/b. I'm sure you've seen this happen with other applications, especially ones that are like lagging or forzen. Except that firefox is perfectly responsive it just doesn't update. It will fix itself if I scroll down and then back up.

Oh, ok. That is just a render issue. I have had that happen on a few other sites. I wouldn't worry about it. It is a cosmetic issue that they haven't fixed yet. They usually wont fix cosmetic issues until just before final release. Once FF5 final arrives it probably won't do that anymore. Until then get that mouse scroller working!

You have to add the public key.

Code:

wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
