sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-lts-quantal libgl1-mesa-glx-lts-quantal

This worked for me from a clean backup.I do use the latest nvidia from there site however.

Delete the .xsession-errors file thru nautilus or terminal.
From a terminal in your home directory do the following.


touch .xsession-errors
sudo chattr +i .xsession-errorsThe first command...

Thank you. On my system it broke x but did install correctly. I'm using a newer kernel and an older version of nvidia which caused the problem but on a stock box it looks like it would update the...

Yea looks like I'll be changing. I was using nautilus scripts to open as root which now doesn't work along with the options that seem to be gone with the new GUI.
Thanks all.

What happened to the popup that allowed you to run,run in terminal or display file when clicking on an executable file in nautilus ? I'm running the gnome3 desktop.

Unless your running windows or intend to install windows I would stick with MBR. Note that UEFI is the fuure and will be default before long. Right now its a headache (IMHO)

The newer nvidia drivers are causing the problem (at least in my case) going back to the 295.71 drivers along with a kernel that supports that driver fixed my problem.

Read known bugs sticky under general help.

Try installing the newest 313.18 drivers ( ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/ ) before building the new kernel. I just installed them on the 3.7.3 kernel with no problems and no...

I run 3 monitors on a single card using a vga splitter sold by iogear among others. VGA from card to splitter to 2 monitors and DVI from the card to the third.. The only problem I've run into is...

The same utilities you use on a standard hard drive. Smart status in disk tools will display the heath of your SSD drive along with the ability to benchmark the drive speed. I'm using Gmome3 but I...

No it hasn't

No its not different. The most ridiculous thing I have ever encountered is trying a clean install of 12.10 along with Nvidia drivers of any flavor and I have been using Ubuntu for years. Why this...

Edit the xorg.config and disable the power saving modes there. I'm on a different computer right now but if you look at the options posted on Nvidia's site under driver installation it will give you...

Simply put a micro sd controller is designed for fat 16 (up to 2gig) or the high density (class 10) fat 32 file system for the larger storage cards not ext3 or ext4 .

add vga=normal to /etc/default/grub

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset vga=normal"

I'm using 12.04 and Gnome3 and trying to read a 4/gig SD card in my phone with a USB cable. I can read a 2 gig card (fat16) with the same cable and phone so I know everything works. The same card...

Hey All
I added a startup script to load Skype and a couple of screenlets with a slight delay (sleep 1). All works as it should except if I look in the system monitor it shows the sh script as...

The newer drivers (304.xx) now support DKMS and will update without rebuilding the driver every time the kernel changes.

I you use the 295.59 drivers because of similar problems but I do notice 2 entries for the pci bus ID which I don't think you need. Here's mine. Your Bus ID is probably correct so leave it at 1. I...

Take a look at this. About the middle of the page. I use it daily for backups.

Fsarchiver will do what you want. It can be found on the System Rescue CD. I use it daily for backups and have restored more times than I care to mention.

Nomodset has nothing to do with your partitions. As posted you need to do everything from within windows should you decide to resize your windows partition to make room for Ubuntu before using the...

+1 on the firmware update. Then if you still have problems you need to start looking at having a faulty drive

Don't use the localmod config option unless you know what you are doing with make menuconfig and know which options to add.
