faster firefox - and stable too... in ubuntu

Make sure you visit this site http://getswiftfox.com/
Swiftfox, is running on firefox codebase, though its optimized for the processor we have. make sure you make the right choice there. If you have centrino etc .. core duo/solo choice should be fine.

Thats its pick the shell script that is closeset to your processor, then execute the shell script as root (sudo) and then it will do everything, downloading, and installation, just a single script that does everything.

enjoy !

restart alsa in ubuntu

sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart


if that doesnt help use this
sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils reset
sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
