Can you be more specific? i just install E17 svn on ubuntu raring and have the same trouble with fonts in gnome apps. This used to be solved by having gnome-settings-daemon running, which I do. But...
I just installed gnome-shell and when I tried to login to that environment all I got was my desktop background and cursor, no gnome environment at all.
Any advice?
I'm having the same problem with Skype. But I can't seem to downgrade that package in synaptic - no other package is listed. I have all repos enabled except raring-proposed, which I had to disable to...
Awesome. That did it. Many thanks. One more thing: for how long should I leave raring-proposed disabled?
Hi. I recently completed an upgrade from 12.10 to 13.04 and everything went smoothly as far as i can tell. Except synaptic won't let me upgrade my kernel to 3.8 due to broken packages, so I'm still...
Fixed it. The setting was in Unity Tweak Tool (System > Scrolling)
Hi. My scrollbars seem to be missing. Don't know what I did to cause it. It just appears as a thin line at the side of the window that I can't grip with my mouse. See here:

Yeah I used to have Ubuntu installed on its own partition. I guess I'll go back to that.
Thanks.
Hi. I've got a dual-boot system with XP and Ubuntu 12.10 (with Ubuntu installed through the windows installer). I've encountered an error than can be seen here:

Thanks for your reply. But I can't login without my monitor powering down. Is there anything I can do from the recovery console?
Update: I was able to get into my system. Not sure why it worked...
So there isn't a solution right now?
I'm using Natty since Oneiric didn't install for me. I tried to use the hibernate menu option but all that did was turn the screensaver on. I rebooted and now whenever I choose to boot into ubuntu my...
I tried installing Oneiric on a fresh partition and it stalled. The Live CD also stalled when I selected 'Try Ubuntu'. In order to even get the Live CD to load I had to turn off hyperthreading in my...
I get this error with totem:
** (totem:15162): WARNING **: Could not create element 'gconfvideosink'

Thanks for your quick reply. I think I'll wait a bit longer ;)
Just a few questions about Gnome 3 and Unity:
1) Is it safe yet to try out the gnome 3 team PPA? Safe for someone with moderate skills, that is.
2) When Gnome 3 is finally released (next week?)...
ahaha nice
Ugh, I wish i had waited. I decided to purge the PPA for Gnome 3 but it didn't solve my problem - gdm loads fine, but the session chooser is greyed out. When i try to login i get an error message...
The right thing to do would be:
Code:
sudo service gdm restart
Thanks ;)
Poo! I got my user-list gdm back, but cannot choose a session (greyed out)
:(
Can you be more specific with the exact commands? Ctrl+Alt+F2 to get to a virtual console, correct? And to start gdm is it just "sudo gdm"?
It worked! Btw, it's a dual boot system, only 1 physical drive:
sda1: Windows XP (NTFS)
sda2: Ubuntu
sda3: swap
sda4: FAT32 partition
Thanks for all your help ;)
I tried what you suggested. Didn't work. In fact, the drive didn't mount at all this time.
I'm having difficulty making my FAT32 drive capable of read/write. I followed the instructions here (http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Maverick#Windows_Compatibility) and added the following line to...
