Confirmed the bug and added tag: amd64
If you are using GRUB in the 13.10 install to start the machine it should not be necessary to run "grub-install" to get the new kernel; the installation process calls "update-grub", which will add...
Not only that, but the version of libglib2.0-0 that was causing the error on raring has been replaced today, so the old version of skype also works on raring or saucy.
OK, you're probably right. Though, as I said, if the package isn't fixed it probably won't be possible to file a bug....
We shall just have to wait and hope. And use released Ubuntu versions to...
More to the point, how do you find the "origin" of a package using the Origin" button in Synaptic?
Origin simply gives a list of various repositories; unless you KNOW which one holds the package...
After checking, I find that skype worked on 13.10 BEFORE the upgrade on May 15th that introduced linux-image-3.9.0-2-generic, and didn't work after.
Booting into the older kernels 3.9.0-1-generic...
Meanwhile, Skype on 13.10 Saucy Salamander is still core dumping when started, as of today, having worked fine yesterday (and for weeks before and after the upgrade from RR)
Can we get back(?) to...
Now that's what I call too much of a good thing!
What is anyone but an alsa developer supposed to glean from that?
launchpad bug #1156130
OK, version ~69 fixes that and is now installed. Thanks for the fast work...
Re: Requesting feedback on unity-tweak-tool
Starting unity-tweak-tool from a terminal, with or without "sudo" leads to the following crash:
~$ sudo unity-tweak-tool

I concur. I have a perfectly sound install of 12.04 on a btrfs partition, but os-prober never sees it from another Ubuntu install. I have simply added the relevant grub menu entries using...
Checked into the emesene problem - it's in the repos, but it has been unusable since early September. It started crashing with a SEGFAULT on startup, and it hasn't been fixed as far as I can see. LP...
Thanks for the news about aMSN, Jeremy. That's a relief.
I'm not sure why you say emesene never left - it was missing from the repos for a while, apparently because of a toolkit conflict. Maybe it...
As it is, the last few weeks of QQ severely curtailed the usefulness of Ubuntu for me. aMSN was removed some months back, now Emesene is gone - there seems to be no available program to monitor and...
I had a similar problem, where one laptop allowed me to boot into the external USB HD and another laptop would not. I knew the install on the external HD was OK, because it worked with the first...
In a terminal type:
cd /media
ls -la
That will list the partitions that are mounted under /media in your Ubuntu install.
If you recognize one of the listed partitions as the one you want,...
The answer was "sudo fdisk -c /dev/sdc"
then "o" to make a new msdos partition table
then "w" to write the new partition table
HTH someone else
Hi - can anyone suggest how to proceed in this interesting situation?
I wanted to try out the CrunchBang distro, so I downloaded it and put the install files onto an 2GB USB stick. Didn't work;...
That should have been "cat /etc/apt/sources.list"
HTH
You can try re-naming by replacing .ashx with .pdf
That may give you a readable pdf file, opening with evince or Adobe Reader.

Well, I've been using Ubuntu since 2007 or so, and I did get my elaborate GRUB setup going, with help from friendly folk on the forums, so I don't think I'm exactly a newbie. I did skip over the...
Re: [Boot-Repair] Graphical tool to repair the PC boot in 1 click!
I need to add a note of caution - boot-repair may be great, but it can cause problems!
I have a moderately complicated install situation - Vista plus 3 ubuntu installs on sda plus another 6 ubuntu...
Probably the "delete" you did just marked the files as being in the "Trash" folder, so they're still there on the flash drive, taking up space. Open the drive in Nautilus, with Hidden Files showing,...
