I have my desktop on Ubuntu 11.04 Classic and several other PCs on Xubuntu 11.04. They all use a fixed IP. Suddenly all stopped working. It was driving me crazy trying to find what was wrong. I could...

Firstly: The printer and cable are perfectly OK.

I upgraded my computer and had to add a parallel...

Thanks for your reply. Currently I am just running the 'try' option so I can't install ccsm.
However, I did try the menu thing when the app was full screen.
I found that I had to click on the 'full...

I tried running 11.04 from a USB stick on my Eee PC901.
Take the situation where one application is already launched and I want to launch a second one. Move the cursor tho the LHS of the screen and...

Hmmm, I am beginning to think that it will only work with Debian based distros. I have had it work with Mint. I have several distros now in the same directory. I found that the Debian based ones will...

I don't believe this is a VPN provider problem. In my case I am the provider, in that I have a VPN server working which I am able to connect to with my mobile phone, but I can't connect to it with my...

Same issue with me also. Just the same from 'messages'.

I checked out Launchpad and, although there are similar bugs reported, dating back to 2008, I can't see one exactly like this - though I...

The 'Failed to start' issue can be solved by unchecking the 'Available to all users' box in the GUI. :)
..but then I get 'Failed to connect'.
:(

I am getting the same problem. I have previously had imported Ubuntu, Mint & Jolicloud distros and they still show up in the list but I can't import any other distros. I tried finding the config...

In the case of my Satellite tuner, the firmware already installed was duff.
What you need to do is find & download the appropriate firmware. In the directory where the firmware is stored (/var/lib)...

Also, try Googling the device you are considering buying and see if there is a linux driver for it.

The other way is...

1. Could it be a permissions/ownership problem? Have you set these accordingly. Check your 'does not exist' path properties against those of say, /var/lib/mythtv/recordings/.
'mythtv' should have...

Running Lucid 32 bit.
Webcam works on Cheese perfectly. So I assume not a driver problem.
Skype can't see any webcam devices but was perfectly OK on Karmic.
Already tried several LD_PRELOAD etc....

You'll see, in an earlier posting, in this thread, I have commented on the Audio settings. I find that this needs to be set differently depending on the hardware as well as OS version.
The very...

Running Karmic with all updates.
I tried making an Audio call on aMSN (v0.98.1). Strangely it rang at my end but not with the other party. Then we tried it the other way and got the same thing...

I found out why the screen was going to sleep every 5 minutes. It wasn't the power saving, it was the screen saver - something I never use so it was just a blank screen.
That problem is solved and...

Now that the final version of MythTV 0.22 is included in Karmic, rather than the broken RC, the situation has changed much for the better. I am posting this because I am sure that many, like me,...

Have you checked the mixer settings?
Either install the Alsa Mixer GUI or simply type alsamixer on the command line. Check that the appropriate controls are turned up - including the headphone...

I have an Eee PC901. Everything on the Karmic Remix works fine except for the WiFi. It does connect to the wifi but it slowly degrades and thus downloads get painfully slow. Starts on full bars, then...

Firstly, thank you to Tragos for his help. I also learned how to stop updates from this - very useful! I had already tried 'purge' earlier, as dardack suggested, but doing it again AND mucking around...

I did the install. It was reported that there were errors after the install. I checked dpkg.log but there were no errors in there. On a reboot there were no messages re mythtv... not that I expected...

Wow! Thanks! I'll give this a try.

I'm want to do this too!!

I tried running Karmic with 0.22 and it was too broken. I installed Jaunty on my MediaCentre PC so I could use 0.21. However, I have Karmic on my desktop PC and Karmic...

You can add your own artwork by calling the file 'cover.jpg' and placing it in the same file as the songs.
eg. /home/yourname/Music/bandName/albumTitle/cover.jpg
I downloaded a file, that matched...

My brother has just ordered an L300. It is his first computer so it would be a steep learning curve, for him, to have to cope with Vista and all the spyware, viruses and resulting slow operation due...
