hi, this is not actually Ubuntu related but does involve a terminal:-)
I downloaded a terminal for my nexus 7 and want to batch copy pics from a subdirectory in Google drive to my tablets dcim...

had to learn how to downgrade fglrx in synaptic to fix it. all normal now.

just booted up a few minutes ago to find my resolution at 1024x768. it should be 1366x768. the only thing i can think of was an update that involved fglrx yesterday, but it seemed to work fine up...

o.m.g... i just booted up again, noticed a half hidden pop up about a monitor not being connected. i knew this was a jupiter thing so i checked that. i can change the res there no problem >.<
i...

after log in the resolution changes from 1366x768 to 1024x768. also the bottom fifth of the screen is inaccessible. even changing the res back to 1366 using Display leaves that part of the screen...

this happened to me last year too, but it seemed to be fixed by commenting out a line in a config file. now it's back again... windows and my phone can connect via wifi, but ubuntu keeps coming back...

sorry to bump this thread, but thank you very very much for posting that link. galaxy is running very easily on my old athlon x2 laptop :D

i've tried partitioning d:/ which holds my wubi install. gparted complains of cross-linked files and aborts the procedure. i think wubi must need to be on the same partition as windows?

or use wubi :)

i've started using ubuntu one to sync files from my phone. one of these is a video which is for some bizarre reason upside down when playing (the fault of the phone...). is there any program i can...

i've read that the fix for this is to rename the conf file to xorg.conf.backup, but i don't have the necesssary permissions for that. how do i do it in terminal?

nm, i found i just need to 'sudo...

done :mrgreen:

where do i find this in ccsm? i've changed top panel transparency (although it seems to be on or off no matter the value). i'd like to alter menus too...

1. the emerald 'fix' unfortunately doesn't work. it seems i'm stuck with gtk :(
2. xcscreensavers works great until i try to get back to desktop.. it either completely hangs or corrupts the screen....

photowheel just doesn't want to work for me in 12.04, i miss that effect :/

i've upgraded to precise and compiz still works... except photowheel for some reason. any ideas? :/

bingo! sorted in a second :D

i've checked ccsm and window decoration is checked and set to 'any'. still no buttons :(

(oddly, compiz is working fine (didn't expect that..) apart from photowheel not visible :/ )

and to push...

desktopnova doesn't work with oneiric (last time i checked anyway...). i use wallch now. i doubt very much if what you want to do can be done though.

a bit strange :s

i'm left handed and haven't found the layout at all inconvenient. i also use emerald themes which put the window buttons on the right hand side (while being on the left actually...

when entering my password into the xscreensaver pop up, i notice the 'flame' image on the left of the timer. this usually means it's looking for an image somewhere. can i customise this?

back into ccsm and un-tick 'enable desktop cube'. you should have received warning, though, that setting desktop cube would disable desktop wall which unity needs. (apparently...)

just found this a few mins ago. if i have a firefox page open and i move to the dash to open a new workspace, the page deforms slightly. once the workspace switch screen is open, the cursor seems to...
