I recently installed 14.04 on my HP desktop with an Nvidia graphics card. The install went fine, but then booted to the Ubuntu desktop with no icons or mouse. Figuring it was a graphics driver...

Thank you all, for your responses. It sounds complex and risky. I'd hate to end up with an upbootable system Damn MS anyway!

I've been reading the posts and help guides on installing on a UEFI machine, but they seem to all talk about installing alongside Windows. I have a brand-new Toshiba Satellite 850 laptop with Win8...

Interesting replies. When I read them, I'm not sure if the problem has been fixed or not. My machine has an Ivy Bridge processor and Intel HD4000 graphics (no AMD or nVidia) and the last two versions...

Chrisle: The weird thing is that the live version always worked for me. This failure to load the desktop only happened after installing on the hard drive.

Has anyone tried installing Ringtail on a machine with Intel HD4000 graphics. I haven't been able to use the last two releases on my machine and get a desktop without annoying workarounds. Hopefull...

And, oddly, the problem does not occur when running the live CD or the installer. It's only after installation that the issue arises.

Sadly, it's not just Nvidia cards that are a problem. I have Intel HD4000 graphics and am getting a black screen on boot and often a notification that it's going into low graphics mode. I tried...

Seems there are only the two of us, pesho21. There are many posts about xorg and the display manager having issues related to the nvidia video driver, but none about the Intel video driver in 12.10.

I'm having an issue with a clean install of 12.10 Ubuntu 64-bit. It's similar to other posts I've seen to do with GRUB and nvidia, but in my case it's happening with Intel HD4000 graphics. I get a...

I'm having an issue with Pidgin since upgrading 11.10 to 12.04. When I click the icon to open Pidgin, it pulses, but dies not open. Same thing when I select Pidgin from the dropdown "envelope" menu....

Hi ajgreeny. It's not the cover art display that I don't see, it's Album Art Search that I can't find. It seems to be installed, because it's on the list of available plugins and I have checked it....

Thanks ajgreeny. Installed the Album Art Dearch plugin. It shows up on the plugin list and is checked, but I can't figure out where to see it. Rhythmbox screen looks the same as always.

For several versions of Ubuntu, Rhthymbox has not fetched cover art, even with the cover art plugin enabled. I've seen many posts from 2010 that talk about this issue. Two solutions were proposed:...

A couple of issues with the Launcher...

1. When the Update Manager icon appears on the Launcher (indicating updates are available), clicking on it does nothing. I have to select the entry for...

Setting up LibreOffice Writer in and can't get the ruler settings to stay. I set both the horizontal and vertical rulers to "inches" and they revert to the default "Char" and "Line" when I reopen...

Why I don’t like Unity

While I’ve test-driven many GNU/Linux distros, I’ve been a devoted Ubuntu user since Hoary Hedgehog was released 6 years ago. Ubuntu is my full-time desktop on both my MSI...

Rebooting did not work, unfortunately. Oddly, if I switch to the Ubuntu Classic interface, I can add the weather applet to the top bar no problem. It's only in the Unity interface that the weather...

Have installed indicator-weather, but it's not showing on the panel. I know there have been other threads about this issue, but I've tried all the suggestions and still can't make it visible.

Thanks for your help. Much appreciated.

I'm using Natty, which comes with Libreoffice 3.3. However, version upgrades are coming fast and furious from Libreoffice, which has released a development version of 3.4. I'd like to keep up with...

Anyone know if Rhythmbox has a database file that I can save?

Actually I am using FF4, but was unaware of the sync feature. Just set it up and uploaded. Thanks a million!

Traditionally, I have done a clean install of Ubuntu with each new version. I reinstall all my files from a backup drive each time. I use Evolution's backup utility and Firefox's bookmark backup,...

Thanks, chopinhauer. Much appreciated.
