You're all saviours!!!! :)

I've had a problem wih my keyboard for several months where the numbers pad wouldn't work. I've been waiting until I had some spare cash to buy a new keyboard. In the...

Hi,

You don't actually need to install from a tar.gz as 0.48.0 is already in the repositories. To install it:


sudo apt-get install inkscape

Or alternatively search for Inkscape in...

To be honest depending what you want to do it looks like iTunes is a waste of time under wine:

Nothing is rated higher than...

What about using System >> Preferences >> Startup Applications

Select Add and enter firefox as the command.

Then if you have the HTML file set as your home page, it should load up. :)

As Sncs said make sure you use "sudo" and also make sure you haven't got Synaptic, Software Centre or Update Manager open. :)

Just to follow up what ajgreeny is saying, when you burn the image to disk are you copying the iso file to a disk or burning the image? The easiest way to burn an image to disk is to right click the...

Have a look in:


/home/<username>/.gvfs

For some reason a NAS box is mounted here. You should be able to create a symlink to this folder if you want. :)

oldos2er is right, I missed the first part of your post! Sorry!

Have a look at the package Ubuntu-restricted-extras, I think tat has Flash in it along with several other non free codecs which...

I too like VLC i also like SMPlayer. Out of the box both will play just about any file you can download from the internet without having to tinker with additional plugins etc! :)

Hi Matt,

First off, back up any documents and settings you want to keep!

When you downloaded 10.10 and put it on the Pen Drive did you just copy the downloaded file to the Pen Drive or did you...

Once you've carried out your installation have a look in the Software Centre for Ubuntu Restricted Extras.
This will then install all the codecs etc needed which couldn't be included due to...

Hi,

you just need to install the LIBDVDCSS2 package. This package contains the necessary code to un-encrypt commercial DVD's to allow you to play them on your computer. Unfortunately this package...

HI it's in a hidden folder in your home folder. The full stop at the beginning of .mplayer denotes this.
In the file browser (Nautilus), go to View and select Show Hidden files and folders.

You...

try in a terminal:

metacity --replace
I think that's the right way around!
sounds like it might be an issue with the decorator. :)

I live in a house that was built about 1501.
And you've guessed it, I've seen and heard a lot of strange things! :)

Hi,

By default Windows detects a USB stick as media and as such can't see more than one partition.
Have a look here for more detail and ways around it:...

Glad its all sorted, all the best! :)

If you load the module at boot, when you plug the controller/keyboard in it should be recognised as the module is present.
I had a similar problem with a firewire camcorder awhile back and that was...

Just a note if my last suggestion works, when an update occurs and a new kernel is installed you'll have to add the modules to the file again. So it might be worth bookmarking this thread! :)

I've found this:

http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-how-to-load-a-kernel-module-automatically-at-boot-time/

So my theory is, if you add the modules to /etc/modules (for Ubuntu) the modules will...

I suspect it won't show up in amidi -l until the module is loaded.
I think a good candidate looks like:

So if you use modprobe to load the module:

modprobe snd_usbmidi_lib
Does that work?...

I think you can safely say force isn't the answer!
Sorry I don't know what else to suggest.

Just done a bit more reading!

try running the following without the keyboard installed:


lsmod
That will list loaded modules. Make a note of the installed modules.
Reboot with the keyboard...

Nice one!

You might want to change your bios setting as well for the next time you restart.
I'm afraid i don't know what to suggest for the keyboard. I suspect you might need to load a a module...
