Well for some reason one of the index files apt is looking for isn't there. It might just be a problem on Medibuntu's end, or a problem in your sources file (but unless you edited your sources file...
The problem is that you don't have the PGP keys needed to authenticate packages from the Medibuntu repos. You should be able to resolve this by installing the package medibuntu-keyring (if it's...
Well the 'dmesg' log generally contains information pertaining to booting up. If you could post its contents, I suppose it might help us to help you (well not me specifically, I'm clueless when it...
Thanks for the info! :) I guess I'll have to make sure I have that package before upgrading to 8.10.
I know that the 'ubuntu-desktop' package depends on all the other packages needed for Ubuntu's desktop environment, but it seems that it has a function other than being a metapackage. The package...
Well yes, double click can be used to select the whole address, but some of us prefer a single click. :P
Just go to about:config, read the warning and heed it, then find 'browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll' and double click it to set it to true. :)
If you're running Compiz and you have CCSM installed, you could just set the command for the 'Window Decoration' plugin to 'emerald --replace'. :)
By default, the drive's permissions are set so that only root can create folders and stuff. You'll need to use the command 'sudo mkdir path/to/folder/you/want/to/make'. :)
The problem mentioned here is a bug in Xorg's 'intel' driver. It can be worked around by using xorg.conf to force the use of the older 'i810' driver, which does not have the bug but may have some...
Version 2.4.0 of the Xorg intel driver is available in Intrepid's repositories.
For i386:...
The PPA works like a charm! :D (It went flawlessly for me at least)
That seems to work as well (at least on the system I tried it on). :)
By the way, I actually followed the instructions listed here to fix the bug - I assume they worked, but were messed up by the...
Well I'm not sure if this will help you, but I managed to solve the problem myself - it turns out that there was another file in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/ called 'resume-old' that was somehow...
I recently resized the swap partition on one of the laptops I use, as I had upgraded its RAM and wanted it to be able to hibernate. However, whenever I boot up the machine it hangs for several...
You need to give yourself root access to modify system files and such, so the command should be:
sudo apt-get install firestarter
You'll need to type in your password to authenticate, and then...
Unfortunately trying the hard drive in anther computer didn't work either - I guess this means I should be looking for a new HDD. :( Oh well, that's what backups are for I guess.
Thanks for the...
No luck so far - the boot still fails after removing and replacing the hard drive.
'sudo fdisk -l' comes up blank
'sudo blkid' gives me:
/dev/loop0: TYPE="squashfs"
'mount' gives me:
My laptop uses an 80 GB Western Digital Scorpio hard drive with 3 partitions - one for Windows, one for Ubuntu, and one swap. Recently, it abruptly lost power when starting up (displaying the GRUB...
This sounds like a problem with the 'intel' driver (and Intel 82852/855GM graphics devices) which me and a few other users encountered. If you're using a similar graphics device, then there's a...
Once Ubuntu finishes loading, press Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get to a terminal screen. Login from there and run:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
I'm pretty sure that should reset xorg.conf to...
All the packages install fine for me now, and Flash player seems to be working fine with PulseAudio, so I'd have to say that it worked. :)
Appendix C (at the bottom of the tutorial) has instructions on how to revert the changes to PulseAudio. :)
No problem. Thanks for the great tutorial by the way. :)
Unfortunately when I try to install nspluginwrapper from the .deb linked to in the tutorial, it throws dependency errors at me.
Selecting previously deselected package nspluginwrapper.
