gThumb 3.0.2 on 13.04. When I connect my Nexus 4 via USB, it mounts using USB MTP and using the file manager I can see that there are images on the device under the path shown as "Internal...
Running 12.10 amd64. Monitor is a Dell 30" resolution 2560x1600. I just upgraded my video card from an nVidia GTS250 to an nVidia GTX650. Just powered the machine down and swapped the cards. Before...
I'm not building the kernel from source. I downloaded the kernel deb files from kernel.ubuntu.com. Anyway, it seems the problem is elsewhere. Looking at the terminal log for the kernel install, I...
My understanding is that if the nvidia driver was installed from an ubuntu package (this one was, it's from the xorg-edgers ppa), then it should be updated automatically after each kernel upgrade....
That normally happens as part of the install - it did with 3.7.5, 3.7.4, etc. I didn't have to do anything post-install to get the nVidia driver to work with those kernels.
Running 12.10 amd64 with nVidia 313.09 driver. I just installed the 3.7.6 kernel from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/. On reboot, my second monitor was blank and my primary monitor was...
Font Manager recreates ~/.fonts.conf:
nick@nick ~ $ mkdir -p ~/.config/fontconfig
nick@nick ~ $ mv ~/.fonts.conf ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf
nick@nick ~ $ font-manager

I noticed that when I ran apt-get update/upgrade this morning, the nVidia graphics driver 313.09-0ubuntu1~xedgers~quantal1 was updated to 313.09-0ubuntu1~xedgers~quantal2. On reboot, there are some...
Running font-manager from terminal and then closing it doesn't show anything unexpected:
nick@nick ~ $ font-manager
INFO : Verified /home/nick/.fonts.conf

I'm running 12.10 amd64 and have font-manager 0.5.7-4 from universe installed. The Adobe font family Myriad Pro (opentype format) is installed in my ~/.fonts folder. The fonts are all visible and...
With a two monitor setup, does the current version nVidia driver still require the monitors to be configured as separate X screens if one monitor is rotated to portrait orientation? That used to be...
After selecting Gnome, did you click on OK? It's now a two step rather than a one step process...
With the latest nVidia driver (304.51 is on their web site), is it still necessary to use separate X screens for each monitor in order to have one monitor rotated to portrait orientation?
I'm not using the nVidia driver. I'm using an nVidia video card with the Nouveau driver, principally because the nVidia driver doesn't allow two monitors with one rotated unless they are separate X...
I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 amd64 using Nouveau driver and nVidia dual head video card with two monitors. Standard Unity desktop. If I login immediately the login GUI dialog appears, then about one time...
A fix is apparently now in the Maverick proposed repository. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed on how to enable this.
I visit quite a number of web sites (like this one) that require a login in order to post messages. I cannot get Firefox on Ubuntu to automatically log me in on the 2nd and subsequent visits,...
Fresh install of 10.10 amd64 from about a week ago. The last two days, update Manager has started asking, I think, for the admin password as well as my password to install updates. When I check my...
No, that box is not checked.
I also installed Chrome and it has exactly the same problem.
Just did a fresh install of 10.10 amd64, and I can't get Firefox to automatically log me in to web forums such as this one across browser sessions. eg When the first time I logged in here after the...
the main reason I don't use Chrome is because it doesn't support RSS feeds in the browser.
Thanks, the file I needed to change was /usr/share/jedit/jedit.sh. For some reason (why couldn't they just leave things alone), the jedit.sh that gets installed when installing jEdit 4.3.2 from the...
I thought that Ubuntu now defaulted to identifying partitions by UUID in fstab, but having just done a clean install of 10.10 amd64, in fstab only the swap partition is identified by UUID, all the...
Where are Nautilus scripts stored? After I installed jEdit, I now have an "Open with jEdit" option on the right-click context menu, and I want to modify that to reuse the existing jEdit view rather...
Well I've found the problem is Xinerama, or some interaction between Xinerama and something else. I'm running dual monitors as separate X screens with Xinerama. If I disable Xinerama the crash...
