  3. [ubuntu] Re: Help a noob: Sound suddenly broken 10.04 with USB audio

    No, as I say, the sound has been working fine with the USB audio adapter.

    It would be surprising if I had to re-install Ubuntu simply to fix this problem, especially if the problem could arise...

  8. [SOLVED] Re: Upgrade 9.10 to 10.4 - Kernel Panic - Unable to mount root

  10. [ubuntu] Re: Photo: 2 nVidia GPUs - 2 XScreens - 3 displays - one weird one. Reasons?

    Thanks for the suggestion, BbUiDgZ. I'd explored various ideas, and I think I'd found those bug reports that referred to error messages with ACPI conflicts at start-up. None had worked though.

    AcidFr33ze, I'm a newb with a similar problem but I don't understand your post. Can you provide more detail about exactly what you did to overcome the 'Kernel panic' message?

  18. [SOLVED] Re: Grub: edited grub.cfg, broke it, and can't recover

    I need to close this off somehow, I guess.

    I gave up with trying to get 2.6.31-17 or -19 to work with grub, so I apt-get removed them in the way you suggested above, Leppie. Having edited...

    Nope. That broke grub again. :(
    At boot I just get the grub shell - there's no menu.
    I'll try the various fixes again using the rescue CD. Not now though - I'm too tired.
