Turns out, I just had to run this, and select OK without changing anything...

I just upgraded my laptop from 13.04 (64 bit) to 13.10 (also 64 bit), and now the desktop is extremely sluggish when using Unity. I normally use a second monitor and figured that this may have been...

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04, 64 bit. At some point not too long ago Nautilus stopped managing the desktop, so when I log in I get no folders or icons and can't get a menu when I right click. (I think...

The userland is different, obviously, but if you're comfortable in Ubuntu you could get used to them. I'd recommend it if you're just planning on setting up a file server. They're capable of a lot...

Do you mean some sort of remote desktop client on Windows that you could use to look at the desktop of Ubuntu? If so, just for use on your local LAN VNC is quick and easy. You should be able to...

With a redirect, I think, your domain is given a Web forward. So when someone goes to your domain it tells their browser to go to a different address, in your case your IP. This is sort of like...

Due to licensing, ZFS wasn't developed in the mainline Linux kernel tree. You're not going to get out-of-the-box support for it on an Ubuntu server machine because of this.

However, there was...

So I sort of solved my problem here, or at least worked around it. I think that the problem here was that the libnss-pam module was trying to talk to the LDAP server regardless of nscd having a...

You might want to give the Alternative Install CD a try. That should let you do a text-based install, which may work for you if the CD is just having a problem with your graphics hardware. Even if...

Can anyone recommend a USB sound card that has an optical input and works well in Ubuntu? This is for my laptop, which does not have this onboard. I've found devices with these inputs, but have not...

Sorry to resurrect this thread, but I'm having pretty much the same problem in Maverick, also with an expresscard FireWire card. I also tried the "modprobe pciehp pciehp_force=1" bit doesn't work...

What do your log files say? See what comes up in both the access and error logs.

You could give Cinelerra a try, but it's not the most intuitive thing out there. It also has a tendency to crash, but if you become familiar with it it is very powerful. I don't think it's in the...

So is your system booting properly (aside from the icons)? If you're using the system normally, chances are things are mounting properly as you boot. Just for a little more information, try doing...

What hardware did you add?

Is this a fresh install? Did you add any hardware? Looks like it might be a kernel panic. If you can get it to log in, try doing a dmesg into a text file or stick it into pastebin.

1. Do you have a couple hard drives in your computer, or just one with a few partitions? Post your /etc/fstab, and tell us what exactly you're trying to do. (Also, when you edit it, you need to use...

Alright, I think I see what you mean. Try this: first, install pavucontrol:

No problem, glad you got it working! Hope you like Ubuntu.

Also, you should edit your topic and add [solved] to the title, for anyone who might be searching.

Do you want to play music from an external source (like a CD player) into your computer? If your sound card has a line in, it should be straightforward, especially with PulseAudio. You might want...

I have a Lenovo G530 laptop that I upgraded from Karmic to Lucid a couple weeks ago. For a while everything was fine, but just recently (maybe due to an update?) I've started to see a bug where...

Alright, all I had to do was reinstall GDM. Here's my other thread for reference:

Alright, all I had to do was reinstall GDM and purge the config files, and now it works.

If you have this problem, just do this:
