It just feels so clean, clutter-less. :love:

Just a question for more experienced users, I've installed WINE and tried to execute/install Winamp but I recieved some error on execution bit not available, I went to the file's properties and tried to enable "executable" but it kept on disabling itself. Basically all .exe's give this error, how can I fix this?

Thanks, I'll keep my Ubuntu installation clean from Windows apps for now.. Dual booting between Ubuntu and Win7 is working fine atm.

Audacious is a kick-ass mp3 player!

Obligatory "finally upgraded to Maverick (from Jaunty!) and it's fantastic" post.

I've got the same problem. Even tried to execute them in root mode.
Tried it with a handful of .exe's and all of them gave the above error. Any solutions?

Edit... saw the how-to link now. Will try that ^^

I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my desktop now.

Wow! It is fantastic. :p

Dunno how much different it is from 10.04, but it feels a bit more polished and I'm loving the new font!
