UPDATE: Yes, it's indeed a problem with the current driver. This has been going on since October? Really? :-x

I installed 12.10 on my desktop, which has a Radeon HD 6870 GPU. Installation goes without an issue, and the OS works great. However, when I try to enable the fglrx proprietary drivers (this also...

I have Ubuntu installed on a desktop computer, which only has one goal - to automatically connect to a Windows 2003 terminal server with RDP via tsclient. It connects up just fine, you can use it...

The company I work for is getting a large shipment of new medical equipment, and each machine has a tower and monitor built in. The towers, by default, run Ubuntu 9.04, and I don't want to install...

I've never had this problem before. I'm using my headset (which works fine in Windows BTW), and sound effects have a grating static sound beforehand, and music sounds like it's being played through...

Hey, I was wondering if there was a way in Compiz/GNOME to open a program on a specific viewport. My goal is to fire up Virtualbox automatically on the second viewport when Linux opens up.

Thanks...

I did some Googling and found that it's possible with two programs - multisync and synCE - but there were no tutorials on getting it to do so. I installed multisync and the synCE plugin for it, and...

Oh, wow, I've never heard of the system76 laptops, those look AWESOME. Thanks for the advice, folks.

I'm in the market for buying a laptop and I LOVE Ubuntu, I've used it for almost two years now. I know it's a lot easier to implement features for desktops because the hardware is almost always...

Never mind, I just figured it out. Apparently in my efforts to get sound working in NXclient, I changed the sound servers.

Hey, I have a media keyboard, and awhile ago I was able to use it to adjust volume, but now it just shows the volume level, moves in the direction I push the buttons in, but doesn't actually affect...

Hello, I am successfully able to log in to my Ubuntu machine using a Windows client. At login it plays Ubuntu's African groove sound, but when I attempt to play any kind of media, I get nothing. I...

Hey, after installing Google Earth, my Firefox stopped displaying my homepage on startup, and the Forward, Back, and Stop buttons are permanently gray. I restarted the computer, thinking this would...

Is there one? My goal is to get VirtualBox open on a different viewport on startup, without having to specify the VDI it's loading every time. Would it also be possible to get it to come up in...

I tried search for these things, no dice. What I want to do is load up VirtualBox on startup, on a specific screen. That shouldn't be too hard, I heard about a program called Devil's Pie that can do...

I've been told that to get a Zune working in VMware, you need to disable Linux's support for USB 2.0. I tried disabling it in my BIOS, and it made Ubuntu abandon my mouse, which is a USB 1.1 device....

Uh huh, I was on 0.9.48 (number got turned into an emoticon). I went back to 0.9.46 and was able to play a game. I exited the program, and went back later, and now I can't get past the load screen...

Steam appears to be working fine (although a little slow), and Half-life 2 episode 1 works GREAT (i've yet to try CS : S). TF2 appears to work fine in the menus, but as soon as the loading screen is...

Hm, now it's giving me dsound errors. I think I'll just wait for them to fix the regression, I don't want to re-do everything, especially since I downloaded like three games in Steam. Thanks for the...

The latest version from Wine's repository, 0.9.45

fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x33f4bc,0x00000000), stub!
fixme:d3d:IWineD3DDeviceImpl_GetAvailableTextureMem (0x130fa0) : stub, simulating 64MB for now, returning 64MB left...

Alright, done. That makes things faster for a second, but now after a few seconds, the mouse stops moving and Wine crashes, right at the game's main menu.

I was told that this makes most games (starcraft, most importantly) run much better. I looked into regedit for the entry I was supposed to edit, but it isn't there. In HKEY_CURRENT_USER there isn't...
