Did you get anywhere with this? And what other problems were there? Thinking of getting this model to run Ubuntu 16.04, too.

I have this problem too with 16.04 on Dell XPS 15 9550.

All was working fine, then one day it goes silent when plugging in my speakers to the headphone socket.

Looking at pavucontrol and/or...

OK, when I said it works "fine" with untity, not quite...

Here's the syslog when plugging in an external HDMI monitor while using intel graphics:

I have the 4K UHD screen version and am running Ubuntu Gnome 16.04 Beta1 using 4.4.0-13-generic and the Nouveau/Intel drivers.

If I plug in an external monitor - HDMI or VGA - then the whole...

There seems to be a general keyboard issue.

e.g. in Photos (the mystery app that shows a couple of pictures with apparently no way to determine what it shows), click search and in that box every...

actually you really don't have to type very fast at all. If you want a proof that it's not my typing, try running your finger from Q to T. You should get QWERT, of course, and of course because of...

One of the reasons I love gnome shell is the quick way to start apps. Hit Windows key, type a few characters and hit enter. Windows term Enter. etc.

However since upgrading to 16.04 Beta1 I notice...

Adding nomodesset to the kernel params on boot got it to boot up, but the graphics were awful. It's just an Intel i5 (2nd gen) but they used to be fine for desktop.

However once I got the system...

I downloaded Beta1 of Ubuntu Gnome to a USB stick and tried it on my laptop. All seemed to work really well.

From within the "live" environment, I ran the installer.

Apart from minor things...

Fix: sudo apt-get install cryptsetup

thank you:)

Hi

Under Natty I had a lovely .icc calibration file for my laptop's screen. It's awful without it.

Under Oneiric, when I go to 'Color' in the settings manager only my webcam is listed in the...

Hi lovely community...

I have a machine with software RAID1 set up.

md0 is made up of sda1 and sdb1
md1 is made up of sda2 and sdb2
md2 is made up of sda6 and sdb6

md1 has been / and md2...

+1!

:popcorn: yay! it works again! Thank you!

I've tried so many things from all over the interweb, (all along the same lines) but this one actually worked.

Great, thanks!

I didn't want to write a screensaver, but what I did want was to configure glslideshow so that it would zoom-and-pan ("Ken Burns effect") and fade between one photo and the next...

Hi

Just installed Ubuntu Maverick on an Intel i3 Clarkedale machine with integrated graphics (Asus P7H55-M motherboard).

When I connect my monitor to the HDMI port (actually via a converter...

Thanks for this. The problem I have is that 9/10 of my recordings (and definitely anything off of Channel 4) cause ProjectX to crash.

It seems amazing that there is only one bit of software in the...

Thanks again Lars, but I need root's vars to be different from mine because a process can only run as one user, so root can't use rich's ssh-agent process, so my env vars are no use to root; must set...

Thanks Lars, but that won't do the trick (tested). It's starting bash that sets up the all-important environment variables that are necessary for the ssh that is started by sshfs that is started by...

Lars: looks interesting, but I'm afraid I don't recognise what it would do, or where that code belongs?! Could you explain? :confused:

BTW: turns out I hadn't got it quite fixed :rolleyes:, here's...

Ok, here's what works, and what my logic is. Thanks to all who helped.:)

The problem:

The autofs daemon is stared by an init script before any ssh-agent processes can have been started....

Hi Lars, thanks for your post.




autofs runs as root
autofs therefore calls sshfs as root
the format of autofs map files does not (seem to) allow for anything clever e.g. seems to be...

Hi Sarmacid: I know I'm using sudo on my local machine.

I want to log in at "server" with username "rich" (which happens to be the same username on my local machine).

I need to be able to do...
