If you arent averse to using closed source softwares on Ubuntu, this is something to try out. Opera for Linux has taken gigantic steps since it was first launched and as of now it really is one of the better browsers out there.
Opera browsers arent open-source although they are free for downloads. Its the interface of the browser which has won it many fans over the years. The speed dial, Opera Turbo, Widgets etc. are all part of browser history now. The Linux version of it, although with a few modifications is more or less similar to its Windows counterpart. The installation is easy and hassle free and hence in my opinion, worth a try.
How to Install:
Go to the Download page and download the installation file. I would suggest using the Debian Package for easy installation.
After the download (in case of the Debian Package), its a matter of double clicking on the file and installing it.
somehow I ended up getting solutions from you for my faults whatever i did to ruin my system.

sudo not working.. unable to connect to network,mounted portion of hard disk.

History behind this is I ended up changing the owner by putting the following while fixing someother problem
sudo chown -R myusername:myusername /home/myusername/.*

you will have to boot into the recovery console, during the booting process and when you get the terminal type the following:
ReplyDeletechwon root:root /usr/bin/sudo
chmod 4755 /usr/bin/sudo
one after the other, finally type 'reboot' and see if that solves your problem.
I tried all the possible solutions provided in the
ReplyDeletehttp://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1363859..
chwon root:root /usr/bin/sudo
chmod 4755 /usr/bin/sudo
Still, the problem is not solved.
have u run the live CD and tried this out? if not you should do that.
ReplyDeletesee what you get when you type the following in the terminal:
ls -l /usr/bin/sudo
if that shows u arent the root user, then try the following command:
chmod u+s /usr/bin/sudo
