A lot of times when nvidia users use the restricted drivers they get a message after rebooting stating that Ubuntu has been launched using low graphics mode. This has really frustrated many users that they gave up hope on Ubuntu. I recently installed Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty and when I activated my drivers, I got that annoying message. Luckily, I found a bitter-sweet solution for it.

1. Boot up Ubuntu
2. Open the terminal
3. Type in sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg 
4. Reboot Ubuntu 

Hopefully, if everything went smoothly you should now be out of the low graphics mode, though, this does not solve the problem; it is merely a work-around. OpenGL and 3D acceleration is now disabled. To solve the problem, you should post a new thread in the Ubuntu forums since this problem is unique to each individuals computer.

Engineers are definitely one of the best classes in Team Fortress 2 whether its defending a control point, teleporting a friendly teammate, healing teammates, or defending the intelligence. Engineers can be used almost anywhere even if the engineer is on the attacking team; the engineer could built a teleport to get his teammates to attack the opposing team faster.

One of the most common mistakes that I see engineers doing is exposing themselves. Spies can easily backstab and sap the engineer's buildings and get away with it. Another common mistake I see engineers doing is placing their buildings in an unprotected environment where stickybombs and rockets could easily get to their helpless buildings.

 How to properly place your buildings

• Look for big walls in corners
• Surround yourself with your buildings so that you are corned in and can only get out by jumping
• Keep your buildings close
• When a spy saps your buildings, fix your buildings then kill the spy
• If a spy is continuously sapping your buildings then kill the spy and fix your buildings 
• If there are no corners then build a triangle using your buildings so it would like this:

Sentry

                                                                          Teleporter    You    Wall

Dispenser 

 Things not to do

• Don't place your buildings a mile apart. Always keep your buildings close so you can repair them or remove a sap 
• Never leave your buildings alone

Remember, you have to cover your back so get into a corner or place your buildings so that a spy can't backstab you. Other than that, don't place your buildings out in the wide open as spies can easily destroy them with their revolver since the revolver does maximum damage on buildings no matter how far away.

Here's an easy way to get any song you want for free. It will require stereo mix, however. I have already wrote a guide on how to get stereo mix. With stereo mix enabled, you're well on your way to getting the song that you want for free.

2. Click Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Entertainment -> Sound Recorder
3. Click the record button (the one with the red circle) and wait until its done
4. Now go to File -> Save and save it to some place you'll remember
5. Now click Edit -> Insert File and select the file that you just saved
6. Repeat step 5 until you get the approximate length of the song
7. Google your songs name or go to imeem and search for your song there
8. Record your song and save it
9. Done
