To fix this I commented out the line -

# you can see them in real GRUB...
Sure
# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update

I noticed some autofs issues when I did that 200 line kernel hack a while back to optimize my Lucid desktop. This script came to the rescue, but it will not work with a typical nfsv4 setup. Followon...
First, reboot and select Safe Mode boot option. When the menu screen comes up, select the option for the command prompt with or without networking. Then type:
#mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf...

I used ppasearch to grab the daily build ppa for rekonq -
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/yoann-laissus/rekonq-ppa/ubuntu
and pulled in the latest build, which is...
Using Rekonq version 0.6.1 (same version used in Maverick) on Lucid and its fantastic. It does not seem to be able to remember username/passwords type info or clipboard type stuff on the install I...
I fixed the Nvidia Xorg issue. The latest kernel update had some hosed up packaging going on that somehow borked DKMS. It was a bit of a nasty surprise, but its something I am becoming used to with...
I use the Nvidia beta drivers from PPA build and the latest kernel update broke DKMS. The fix was to remove --purge all traces of Nvidia drivers/headers from the system, then just reinstall as...

Also, after yesturday's kernel update, it will no longer boot Xorg calling out dozens of errors for Nvidia kernel mode settings issues. Tried uninstalling/reinstalling various and sundry Nvidia...
I wish there was. I have the same issue and I am no Linux newby. Have tried multiple solutions and still no joy.
Use nvidia-settings to configure your 2nd monitor.
This used to happen to me back in the 7.04 days and even then it was just a minor annoyance. Haven't seen it happen since. If it does just pop a terminal and type
sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media

What do you mean you cant boot? Do you get a grub screen with the boot options and then it just wont boot Ubuntu?.. Or will it not even give you the grub screen on power up? I assume your getting a...
It sounds like something either went horribly wrong with your install or your CD burn.
Please provide more detail.
1. Does this happen after you have successfully done a livecd install?......
Been using KDE4 since Karmic days. Love it. Using KDE4.5 now on Lucid and its awesome. Very stable nowadays, awesome eye candy via KWin/OpenGL, cool features and tons of widgets and other stuff. Good...
Arch truly is awesome, I agree. Its not the only kid on the block though. After Arch, give Slackware or Gentoo a go. I cant ever see ex Windows users now Linux converts mass adopting a Windows open...
Heres a couple shots of my current desktop
Ive been on Kubuntu since Karmic, and before that I was toying with KDE4.3 on Archlinux, and am certainly no Linux noob. I have closely followed KDE4's development since the scary KDE4.1 days. I...
Update to this thread.
In Lucid this seems to work ootb in tvtime, but sound can still be a tad spotty, depending on your hardware. In my case, I manually upgraded ALSA to 1.0.23, updated the...
I too am having some issues with pulse on Kubuntu Karmic after upgrading to the latest and greatest KDE4.4.1 ppa. I discovered that it had something to do with the upgrade that broke the existing...
Here is my latest Kubuntu 9.10 desktop with Mplayer running the 950Q.
Hi. A little follow up. This thing is still working great using the above Mplayer script.
For those of you who are still struggling to get the 950Q working, I definitely sympathize! This was the...
