    [SOLVED] Re: no sound

    Ozor Mox and Waspinator, did you ever actually solve this problem? I'm also having this issue, and there are others as well.

    [ubuntu] Re: unknown problem

    Replying to my own post, another symptom is that to shutdown/restart, I have to use the CLI, as using the GUI just logs me out, rather than shutting down. I'm not the only person who has had this...

    [ubuntu] Re: unknown problem

    I'd also be interested to know how to solve this, as I've had the same issue since installing 10.04 a couple of months ago.

    I've found that changed between the current and v.173 of the nvidia...

    [ubuntu] Re: 10.04 not authorized to mount usb drive

    Are you using the nvidia driver, and if so, which one? I had exactly the same problem using the current version (as well as other issues, such as the machine not logging out correctly). Once I...

    [ubuntu] Re: kaffeine cannot find demux plugin for MRL

    Thanks also from me - it also got kaffeine working for me too on Lucid.

    Now I need to find how to get the driver speed back to stop the picture from stuttering at fullscreen... any ideas?
  6. [SOLVED] Re: How to get the volume changer icon back in the top panel.

    Thanks, ajgreeny. The 'remove from panel' and 'move' options are too close to each other, so I bet that there will be more people looking to fix this one ;)
  7. [ubuntu] Re: Permission issues after installing nvidia drivers

    Okay, an update: if I change the nvidia driver to version 173, the problems go away.

    Good enough for me for now... now to solve the other problems that I've since detected.
  8. [ubuntu] Permission issues after installing nvidia drivers

    I've just done a clean install of 10.04 and am getting it up to full working condition, but have hit a couple of odd issues:

    [ubuntu] Re: Where has my storage gone?

    Thanks - I've never heard of this command before.

    [ubuntu] Re: Where has my storage gone?

    That was my first thought too, but unless I'm an idiot (very possible), I can't see what else there could be. There's nothing else hidden away with the mount points.

    To make sure, I've run the...

  20. Re: Name Suggestion for future release of UBuntu

    I personally don't see why they have to be kept in alphabetical order, as they are only development names, after all. If, as is suggested in the link, they need to be in alphabetical order to keep...

    I vote for 'Tipsy Tapir'. A tapir is a good animal that fits the spirit of Ubuntu perfectly. They are important in the distribution of seeds in rainforests and provide a good indicator of the general...
