I start experiencing problems several days lately, and I couldn't find the exact cause of the problem, so it's time to reinstall Ubuntu Feisty Fawn from scratch, and this time I will try minimum configuration (without eye candy) that is suitable for daily work.
First, install Ubuntu from CD as usual. After installation finished, then reboot, and do software updates (from main server repository), then reboot again.
Then install my preferred applications :
# this is the basic applications
sudo apt-get install kerry beagle gparted vlc samba cups-pdf ntfs-config ntfs-3g libmeanwhile1 gaim
# this one for supporting my iPod
sudo apt-get install banshee gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.8-faad gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
# some manual install is required (newer version than from the repo)
thunderbird v2.0.0.4 # download this and extract to /opt
lightning # could be installed from thunderbird add-in
# vmware - must be patched - follow the vmware server installation here
