Thanks for the awesome post!

I just spent less time installing Ubuntu alongside Windows 7 on my work computer (exclusively Ubuntu at home for years now) and doing a test cut than I did searching...

Another one here. AMD64 with 2 SATA drives, only one operating system: Ubuntu, where the arrival of Lucid Lynx this afternoon broke my GRUB in the same manner as the poor souls above.

Found this,...

Same problem here. The drive was working just fine until a reboot today, now I'm getting the "special device does not exist".

Tried a couple things that haven't worked, will try more this...

Another fully updated 64bit Karmic user having problems...
Neither Chrome nor Firefox have worked for at least a couple of days. Hulu Desktop will work until the first commercial break, then it...

Had the same problem, deleting xorg.conf did work!

Okay finally, fixed, at least for this 64bit user!

First I followed the instructions under "Flash 10" on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=772490 to remove installed Flash stuff:


Then...

I am having the same problem. Medibuntu repositories are added (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu if you need to do this!), and all gstreamer/w##codecs/etc are installed....

This...

I partially rescind my previous statement, Flash is working *better* but not nearly perfect, maybe not even as well as it used to in previous versions. Bah. Hopefully it gets updated/fixed soon!

Thought I would chime in, I'm on a fresh install of Karmic (64bit), and flash in my FF 3.5.4 is at least half broken as well. I have installed Flash both through the Ubuntu Software Center and from...

2nded. Fully updated Jaunty on an AMD 64bit box. Haven't used google docs for a bit, since the latest distro update, and now I get the "Sorry, but this browser does not support web word-processing. "

Still broken :( I wouldn't be too upset if I had to do a reinstall of Hardy but would like to figure this out!

The %gconf.xml in the nautilus folder is blank; there is also a folder called...

Turns out, SOMEHOW nautilus got uninstalled. Installed it and everything is fine.


Something is wrong with gnome/x: Whatever files/icons I had on my desktop, as well as my wallpaper, have...

deh1963, good job noticing that...my sensors seem to be working fine/detecting with the older ubuntu version , but I might go head and try the latest version tomorrow if I get the time :)

Since ubuntu does cpu frequency scaling by default to match what is needed, shouldn't there be some fairly easy way to overclock, maybe using powernowd or something?

Am I right in guessing most of...

Seems like it's gotten a lot easier to get sensors up and running since this thread was started; I don't think anyone has given a new how-to so I will. Thanks to the folks in this thread [...

I've been 100% Ubuntu for something like a year now. I did however just build a new computer, and broke down and put XP on it.. only so I can play Crysis :). It was a pain in the *** getting my...

From what I've seen a couple people have been able to manually install the drivers from nvidia's site with moderate success, but the majority of us are stuck for now...
Look on the bright side - by...

It should be able to run Crysis just fine.

Dual monitor support, compiz, etc, on the other hand, will be a while, since the 9600s aren't fully supported in linux yet :(.

I second Extraneous; the install went fine, good resolution and everything. Tried manually installing the latest drivers straight from nvidia and broke it. I've seen a couple success stories with...

Mainboard is a Gigabyte GA-MA770-DS3, with an Athlon X2 4600+. The video card itself is an Asus EN9600GT.
Primary display is a 19" Samsung Syncmaster 930B LCD, and the secondary is an ancient brand...

I'm having a low level of success :(.

I just built a new computer today, with a 9600GT. Whatever driver Hardy installed seems to work fine, not that I've tried any serious graphics/3D on it so...

Just put together a new computer today, and it seems as though the keyboard I got, a Microsoft Curve 2000, is broken or not quite mapping correctly. The alphanumeric keys work fine, but Enter and...

artships, I'm glad I'm not the only one to have a ntfs partition that worked just fine under Gutsy and disappeared in Hardy. My condolences that yours seems to be worse off than mine!
I assume you...

Thanks to Newegg's order history, I can say confidently I installed the drive in April of '05. I still find it really odd that it was working fine in Gutsy, still works fine with the Gutsy live cd,...

dmesg is attached. Am I right that the below means the volume itself is being seen but not the partition?

slick@slick-desktop:~$ sudo cat /proc/partitions
