EA Starts Publishing Games in Ubuntu Software Center

EA is one of the most established names in the world of gaming. They have just published two of their browser based games - Lord of Ultima and Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances - in Ubuntu Software Center. May not be their greatest of games but still, EA took some effort to actually publish some of its games in Ubuntu Software Center. I consider this as a welcome move and hopefully a sign of things to come. 

EA Publishes Two of its Browser Based Games in Ubuntu Software Center

EA may not be the kind of company that everyone love. AS a matter of fact, EA was named America's worst company in a recent consumerist survey. But they are definitely big. And their recognition of Ubuntu (and Linux) as a viable platform for playing games can help Ubuntu and Linux community in general, in more ways than one. I know of a number of people who are still using Windows solely for playing games. If more genuine games slowly starts finding its place in Ubuntu Software Center, it is going to be a big win for the entire Linux community. 

As you can also see, both the games are pretty highly rated in Ubuntu Software Center already. And they are both free too. Like most of you, I really want to believe that these are just testing-the-water phase of things and more ingenious and native games from EA are on its way. Let us all hope for a favorable outcome.

Slow or Erratic Wi-Fi in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS? Try Wicd

Ever since I upgraded to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, Wi-Fi connection has become a pain in the neck. In my laptop, though the network-manager detects my router and easily connects to it through Wi-Fi, internet connection itself was really slow and erratic. On the other hand, Wi-Fi connection itself started dropping very often in my netbook.

Slow Internet Over Wi-Fi Issue in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

Both my the laptop and netbook had Wi-Fi speed and connectivity related issues after upgrading to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and above (netbook is running Ubuntu 12.10 Beta 1). Either Wi-Fi kept dropping or it became painfully slow. I had to do all kinds of stuff to reconnect it again and sometimes, even a full system restart won't make it connect to Wi-Fi.

Then I came to know about Wicd from this reddit thread. All the time I was thinking like this is some sort of issue caused by faulty network driver, never did I suspect Ubuntu's default Network Manager itself. So I decided to give Wicd (an alternate network manager available in default Ubuntu 12.04 repositories) a try. I installed Wicd and removed network-manager afterwards. Much to my amazement, everything started to work great afterwards.

How to Fix Slow/Erratic Wi-Fi Problem in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS?

• First, you need to install Wicd from Ubuntu Software Center.

• CLICK HERE to install Wicd network manager from Ubuntu Software Center.

• After Wicd installation is complete, search for 'network-manager' in Ubuntu Software Center and remove it before going any further.

• Now, open Wicd from Unity Dash (see screenshot above). Wicd will automatically detect the available networks around. Simply enter the credentials and CONNECT.

• And when you tick "Automatically connect to this network" option, Wicd will be added to your Startup Applications list. And you're good to go.

• OR if you prefer command line, all you need to do is the following:

sudo apt-get install wicd
sudo apt-get purge network-manager

If this is indeed a network-manager related issue, I wonder how such a serious problem went unnoticed for a long-term support (LTS) release. I hope it gets fixed soon. Until then, you can always use Wicd. Thanks for reading.
