Try going to System > Preferences > Appearance, clicking on the Fonts tab and changing the font preferences from there.1. This site is displayed in Times, and I don't know why. I have my Firefox preferences set to sans-serif, but it didn't change. In Firefox on my Mac and in Vista this site is Arial, so I'm wondering why it shows up as Times in Ubuntu/Firefox. Not a big deal, it's just hard to read.
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=11927452. When I open Rhythmbox, it never finds my music until I mount the OS, which I believe is the Vista partition of the hard drive. So, is there a way to have this automatically mount upon startup?
3. I want to import my itunes xml to rhythmbox, so that all of my playlists and ratings are added.

I tried following that forum walk through for mounting the disk. I'm a bit confused.

I'm confused as to what sda4 is. Could it be my Mac that's on the network? I think sda3 is my Vista partition that I want to mount on start, and 1 and 2 are small Dell and Vista recovery disks or whatever.
Alright, we need the UUID of /dev/sda3 before we can proceed. Unfortunately, it should have showed up when you typed "blkid". I've just found that you can also find the UUID from GParted. GParted is not installed by default, so you'll have to type sudo apt-get install gparted in the terminal. Once it's installed, open it, right-click on your Vista partition, and click on Information. You should see the UUID in the window that pops up.# /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier # for a device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name # devices that works even if disks are added and removed.

That's the fstab content after following the walk through. How do I plug my info in?
This is pretty confusing right now and I seriously don't know what pretty much any of this code means. It kind of makes me miss the good old days of DOS. c:/im/confused
UUID="[UUID of Vista partition]" /media/[partition name] ntfs relatime 0 2Afterwards, reboot and see if it worked.

I've also added the xml(/rhythmdb.xml and /iTunes Music Library.xml) after the last folder, so I hope that's correct. Just curious, but where did you get the [0.8.1.py] part from?
