I'm going to bump this because it's been almost a year and no update has restored the functionality. It's really freaking annoying and hurting the wife acceptance factor.

Ha ha, I just realized I replied to my own post. I think all these nagging problems are frying my brain. [Bump}

Version:Linux 2.6.32-33-generic #72-Ubuntu SMP x86_64

Just to be clear that this was all working for a long time. Some recent (2 months) update has broken it.

I have a microsoft wireless...

Did you get anywhere with this?

I've also searched several times for this. It's such a simple thing, I'm sure there's a CLI solution at least, but I can't find it.

I have searched every now and then (every time the batteries act up) to find a way to get the battery level from my keyboard and mouse. It seems like the most basic thing, but it also seems unsolved...

I have the microsoft intellimouse as well. Is there any solution to this yet?

Nice! An easy solution to turn off the bluetooth hardware using cli.

I just had this problem. I did a "complete removal" of the cisco components (vpnc, network-managaer-vpnc) and it went further.

Check this thread for further problems (solution near the end?)

I'm sure you've learned by now, but you can just hit escape to skip the check.

I learned a long time ago to ALWAYS use the alternate installer. If you try a newer version go with 9.04, because 9.10 is actually beta. If you are saying the alternate install comes up with garbage...

Was that the same as my problem (where you have to rmmod/insmod in the suspend scripts)? That is mostly working for me now. I say mostly because every 1/5 times it will not resume, but I know that's...

WOW! I've been searching for months on how to fix this, and it was the bloody wireless driver the whole time?!? Why does NetworkManager report success in /var/log/pm-suspend.log?

What did you...

I had everything working fine with Hardy, including ACPI alarm wakeup, suspend, hibernate, etc... I figured since it wasn't broke, I'd upgrade and see if I could fix it.

I've read many of the...

I also did the move, but with a full fresh install. Suspend is just giving me that dreaded blinking cursor. I remember doing some simple changes before to get it working, but I am so tired of all the...

I just wanted to update that I have fixed my crashing issue. It was, as I suspected, a graphics issue. I went off the restricted drivers, then back on, so as to download a newer version. All is...

Neither beep, nor sound file works for me (tried .wav and .mp3). Also, does anyone know how to:

- Get sound for calendar events?
- Make calendar reminders repeat by default?

EDIT: Using 8.10...

Beat ya. If you don't have another user you can log into a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+F1). Then remove the all the files under .gconf .gconfd .gnome2. You will lose all your setup, but it's faster than...

I'm in the same boat right now. I can log into my XFCE session, but not my wife's Gnome session.

Race you to the answer!

Thanks! I've had to do this a few times, and keep forgetting how. It is not very intuitive.

A huge weight is lifted from my shoulders. I am NOT alone!

Thanks for the possible help, though I am on x86 32bit and ATI graphics. I am pretty sure it's something with the graphics card though. Like it gets stuck displaying the wrong layer or something...

I just wanted to add a "me too". I am using 8.10 with "proposed" updates on an Acer TravelMate 8100 (with ATI Radeaon mobility x700) and I get random and complete system lockups.

Only the mouse...

Peter, those last steps worked for me! Our corp. expense reporting is java, and it would never print for me until doing that!

Java sucks BTW...

Install the "libavcodec-dev" package and try again...
