Hello all!

I am driving across Europe next week, and I usually take Audio Books with me. This time around, I have decided on Bill Bryson's latest audio book, which I bought via iTunes. All...

Hello folks.

The Preamble

Bit of advice required. I have a failing HDD (probably failed in all honesty) that I'm trying to recover data from. If I connect the drive to a SATA port, I can see...

Done

Thanks for the info. I have set that, as suggested:

Yes; When I open the lid, log in, the network manager applet shows as disconnected. For completeness, I waited 2 minutes, and nothing happened.

Restarting network-manager as you suggested does...

When the machine wakes from sleep, lightdm asks me to log in.

I log in, and see that in the nm-applet, Wi-Fi is disabled:

Thanks very much! :)

Hello admins.

I created the account name when I was 14 or so, when I was cool. Alas, 14 years of Linux (Ubuntu since day one) have washed the 'coolness' away... Could you please change my...

I shall have to see now. It was okay sometimes before! I will try and suspend and re-wake it a few times, and see if it is fixed :)

Next job is to fix this insane resolution on the screen. The...

No, sorry. I hadn't form the git repo you mentioned at that point.

I have now, and here's what I get in dmesg:



george@ada:~$ dmesg | grep iwl

Okay,

Following the upgrade, I appear to be using a different driver:

Thanks, Hadaka.

Hello All.

I'm having some trouble with my Intel Wireless 7260 (rev 6b) wireless adapter inside my 2015 Dell XPS 15 laptop. The machine is single boot Xubuntu, and I use the machine daily. I am...

Looking at a Dell XPS 15?

If anyone finds this thread, the Nouveau open source driver works much better on 15.04 beta. The brightness controls work, and the machine reliably wakes from standby.

Has this been fixed yet. Struggled with this for over a year now... Driving me mad!

Is there a way to solve this issue?!

Hello all.

I am looking for a little advice here. I have a 2012 Apple Macbook Pro 6,2. It works fine under OS X/Windows 7 and I am generally very happy with it. I have Xubuntu installed on it and...

Please ignore this question. It seems, after much struggling on my part, there was an issue with the remote server testing the connections. This has been fixed and now confirms the ports are open...

Hello folks.

I wonder if anyone can advise me. I nearly have this going based on lots of other forum posts, but, I'm still a bit stuck. I can forward ports for TCP but not for UDP. I am not sure...

That looks very useful, thanks. I will have a look into it over the next few days, and report back with findings.

Cheers! :)

Hello.

Really quick question. I have a script (arecord/lame) that's recording people talking in a room using a system of microphones into a soundcard. Works great. Issue is, for large amounts...

This bug still plagues me on a daily basis. Is there any known fix for this?

Any advice?

I recently upgraded from Xubuntu 13.10 to Xubuntu 14.04, since the upgrade banner had been splashing over my screen at boot.

However, since the upgrade, the machine has been a little bit unstable...

Hello folks.

I have searched around a bit regarding this issue, but cannot find an answer or find an answer which is a bit crude. They typically resort to removing Pulse Audio, which I don't...

Thanks for the confirmation. I think I will be best off writing a small daemon program to do the sub-minute timing; if I get it right, it will afford me the same resilience to failure with the...
