Reinstalling the desktop worked for me... http://itsfoss.com/fix-missing-system-settings-ubuntu-1404-quick-tip/
Same exact issue. How did you fix? Hope it didn't need a reinstall?
Same problem with me. Seems intermittant but certainly discourages going to menu bar option.
Bingo. Thanks for the clear concise instructions!
On Ubuntu 13.10. One of my frustrations with Ubuntu is the difficulty one has in having a larger mouse pointer. I've seen a number of tutorials and suggestions on the internet most applying to...
Deadflower, that's a rather silly conclusion. Most would think that having the ability to make simple useful changes would enhance a distribution and that not having those particular simple features...
You'll know that Ubuntu is focused on users, i.e. not tech oriented people, when there is a simple way to increase the size of the pointer.
I wish the development people would focus on...

I'm having the same issue. Find it amazing that Ubuntu has not provided a simple way to do this.
This is an absolute need for me...and I'm sure others. My files are all organized by evernts--that is what happened to make me take the photo. And many are from distant past travels that I've...
Thanks for the thoughtful replies.

My browser sometimes has similar confusions and that seems to work.
The solution was to remove pulse audio and use something called ALSA. Everything seems to work to my undemanding satisfaction. Memory utilization is within my computer's limited resources (512mb)...
I'm having problems with pulseaudio on my elderly Inspiron 2650 with 512 of RAM running Maverick. The computer also has Windows Home and lucid partitions and the problem does not occur with lucid. ...
Deleting the .pulse file helped but the problem is still there. Now however, I can pause the playback and the memory usage will normalize. When I restart it plays.
Are there alternatives to...
When I launch the podcast in Rhythmbox, Pulseaudio grabs around 90% of the CPU and doesn't decrease even after exiting the program. There is no sound. I didn't test it in the other programs...
This problem is driving me a little batty. I've downloaded gpodder and used to to test the different players.
