First of all. That's a very nice primary system--wow!
I would suggest backing up your Win8 install; Clonezilla, Macrium Reflect, Windows System image, etc. You may want to do a secure wipe of the...
Hello,
A couple of questions if you don't mind.
- have you successfully booted to the desktop?
- have you installed any updates? ; i.e. software updater and/or video drivers...
In my...
Just a shot in the dark...
Maybe take a look at Clonezilla ? http://clonezilla.org/ It's used for imaging partitions, then a complete restore if needed.
@ ikt -- that's very cool, didn't know...
@ mc4man
LOL ... 4 Pack :D
Here's a bunch of gibberish you can paste into a terminal or make a script for it...
dbus-send --session --dest=org.gnome.SessionManager --type=method_call...
Oh good. I was wondering when that was going show up. :)
What does that make now? Three new icons?--dash button, software updater and nautilus...
Ah, I see. Strange behavior. I haven't lost any keyboard shortcuts 'yet'. Although I completely lost the date/time application and had to re-install it--lol!
Hi,
Do you mean custom launchers, sim links and specifically Gnome shell + fallback?
I can no longer create a custom launcher in 13.04 alpha (Unity) due to nautilus. Drag and drop web links onto...
Wow. Ubuntu 12.10 and you still like Ubuntu? :D -- lol! I had problems with that release, crashes, horrible video driver installation. Wait until Ubuntu 13.04 is released. I'm using the alpha...
Just some observations...
I messed around last night with different browsers, opting in to the 'HTML 5 trial' and disabling Flash.
Ubuntu 13.04 x64; Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera
Win8 Pro x64;...
Smplayer, excellent media software. I use that as well.
One movie notorious for that is Matrix. If you have a copy, try getting that balanced out.
Congrats on your days with Ubuntu/Linux! So,...
No worries about the question. I saw that it was a daemon config file.
That sounds like a common problem everyone has. It has to do with going from stereo to a surround mix and other variations....
Awesome!! :biggrin: Thank you for letting me know.
I made some progress too. Turns out the connections at the back were incorrect; took hours to figure them out.
Also. The script. Is that the...
Hi,
It's good to see you've resolved the mic issue. Thank you for the update. :)
I have problems with 5.1 surround; using onboard audio. The only time I can get it working is when using Arch...
Hi,
With Skype you may be able to fix the issue by open a terminal and typing:
gstreamer-properties
A window will open with output and input options. Under input, select Plugin: ALSA --...
Excellent! Thank you very much. :)
I'm late on this, sorry.
While can certainly appreciate the work put into both KDE and Gnome 3, neither one has been appealing to me. If I had to make a choice, then I would pick Gnome 3 out of...
I don't know if this will help: http://www.webupd8.org/2011/03/disable-appmenu-global-menu-in-ubuntu.html
And yeah, I thought the same thing; Windows 3.1 all over again.
Thank you :)
Your guide got my ATI 9800 PRO working!
Much appreciated \\:D/
