guys have you tried to install ubunt using wubi? have you experienced any serious problems?

: i used it that way for about a month with no issues

standard gnome desktop for 11.04. how to

logout and login with gnome classic

how do i rip a dvd to my hard drive?

dvd::rip is in the repo and good, handbreak from getdeb is excellent

when i type 'sudo modprobe snd-cmi8330' it says 'no such device' but when i type 'sudo modprobe snd-cmipci' it doesn't say anything at all it just goes to another line, does that mean i have snd-cmipci?

if it says nothing then it has loaded, you can verify this with 'lsmod'
