Wish someone would reply who has successfully installed. I'm looking at this hardware - Epson Workforce 840 but don't want to buy unless I know it works with Ubuntu. There is a review on Amazon...

I have Wine version 1.2 rc6 with karmic 9.10 and your regedit solution worked great. I too got the OpenGL error along with the "choosePixelFormat" until I put in your fix. THANKS!

Thanks very much Eldera -- per the link you provided, I rebooted and verified that "grub" was operational and working - then I went to Synaptic and "completely uninstalled" "lilo". Everything is...
Received an error message about lilo.conf but upgrade continued
Final message was that my upgrade was unsuccessful and that system may not be useable (or something like that).
But when I go into...
Glad the info I posted on nvidia was helpful.
I installed some usb speakers on my laptop and went through some troubleshooting before I was successful configuring PulseAudio correctly.
Are you...
I've attached a screenshot of the nvidia settings. "Clones" MUST be set for this to work. The default on mine is "absolute" and everytime I run nvidia-settings now, it will default to that so I need...
I'm using a vga connection to my LCD TV and not HDMI. I have been successful by running nvidia-settings (or in my case I've created a launcher) making sure I have privileges (I use sudo) and select...
Maybe you should check to see if /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base file has been modified on your system such that "usb snd audio" is entered with an "index=-2" or something/anything. This would/might...

Wanted to report because I received so much help from various posts, many in this forum though no individual post precisely helped but all together (including several major sound tutorials on the...
I'm having similar problem and have also done some research. Looks like this problem has been around a while, at least since early 2008.

I'm able to get the HL-2170W working fine with the driver that comes with Intrepid 8.10 (at least that came on my system76 laptop).
I have been successful for printing when I connect printer...
I have a different model Brother wireless but am in the same boat as you. I've got my HL-2170W working fine with ubuntu using an ethernet cable. The drivers were already in the 8.10 Intrepid...
Hey RussianVodka -- did you get a USB hub? If so, what brand? I'm having trouble now with a USB/Parallel port adapter and I've discovered there are lots of postings on the web about USB ports not...
Thanks formol but in the meantime, I found /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.default which was a "clean" version of the config file I needed. In case anyone else doesn't know, I guess others have this on their...
Thanks for the tips. I've got the HPLIP installed but before I proceed, I need to restore the original /etc/cups/cupsd.conf file. Idiot that I am, I made some changes trying to fix the printer...

I've just finished checking this forum as well as Amazon and info on other websites and decided the Logitech Z5 speakers are what I want. The sound is pretty poor on my Pangolin laptop (audio...
Thanks very much for the good info. I read the article posted about root-sudo, can't say I don't agree with it but still..if I end up developing scripts for the system, I'm sure I will find not...
