    unity 11.10 dash
    I can only get unity to display properly at a lower (ugly-looking) resolution. Is there a way to fix this. I cannot go full screen. I can not find any bug reports that have similar problems. I have blacklisted intel_ips because it had failed to i915 symbols. This is common problem in linux and the solution on many websites and bug reports (which has worked up until now) is to blacklist intel_ips. I am using a gateway laptop. 64 bit oneiric ocelot fully updated. installed from the daily build yes

    11.10 truecrypt
    I’ve been using truecrypt for several years now. Today I upgraded to 11.10 and mounting with truecrypt failed with this message:Error: device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argumentOn some googling I found that this could be a problem if the Kernel is not compiled with XTS support and the solution was to use “-m=nokernelcrypto” option. This works for me but this is less than ideal since there will be a performance hit.Can anyone tell me how to get the stock 7.1 version of Truecrypt to work

    I recently purchased an HP Pavilion g7-1310us notebook with the intention of doing a full install of the latest version of Ubuntu on it.

    11.10 shortcut-keys libreoffice
    I’ve basically settled into Unity, but one constant that is kind of giving me agita is that in LibreOffice Calc (and Writer) ctrl-f does nothing. I can go to edit > find … and the edit menu even suggests ctrl-f as a keyboard shortcut, but actually typing it doesn’t do anything. ctrl-alt-f works fine. The only thing that doesn’t work is ctrl-f. I had a really hard time getting settled with Unity (mostly trying to get my old Gnome-do and Compiz settings back) so I spent a lot of time monkeyin

    wine mono
    As far as I know, both Wine and Mono are used to run Windows applications under Ubuntu.So I was wondering what their differences are? Are they both virtual machines? Or does each belong to some other category? It is better When to use which for what kinds of Windows applications? For example, those applications that may or may not require .net Framework. Do they depend on each other? Are they required to install together? Or does each work independently without existence of the other?Thanks and
