Ok, now I figured out how to sync my music from my iPod Touch with Banshee on Ubuntu 11.04 which wasn't that hard in the first place, pretty much plug and play. My question is, is there a way to copy off my movies that I have on my iPod Touch into Banshee and play them using either Banshee or say, VLC Player? I have absolutely no idea if there is a way to do this and so far my searches on Google have yielded very few results if any at that...

Any help would be greatly appreciated even if it's a simple, "Nope, can't be done..."

Thanks Everyone!

How do I switch to the Classic GNOME Desktop?

question is this. Is there a way I can install the Ubuntu Desktop version from say 10.04 or 10.10 into Ubuntu 11.04? I know you used to be able to do

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop

in the the terminal but can you do that now in 11.04? I kinda like Unity and the bar on the left but it is a tad annoying sometimes when I minimize applications etc. If I can install the old Ubuntu Desktop that'd be great. Thanks for any and all help/ideas!

I have here an Asus Eee pc, model is the 1005peb version. Now for the most part it runs fairly decent and quick, not much issue with it except one major one.

Every time I restart or turn on the netbook my brightness is set to full yet my screen is like almost full on black, like it's turned off. I turn down the brightness a couple times using the Fn + F5/F6 keys and it goes nice and bright etc. When I turn the netbook on I have to turn down my brightness level to see the screen at what (I think) is full brightness and it's then ok. If I turn it off and restart etc I have to do it all over again.

Down is up kinda thing...it's an odd and annoying issue, one that I cannot find an answer for anywhere. So if anyone has a solid way of getting it fixed I would be most appreciative. Thanks!

  • I'm using Ubuntu 11.04, Desktop Edition, Standard Grub settings and Kernel no changes to any of the hardcore system settings...

  • I tried Ilari Kajaste's suggestion and it had no effect. Neither better nor worse.

  • @fossfreedom I'll look deeper into your suggestion but at this time it looks almost the same as the second answer so I doubt it is what I currently seek.
