Aha! Thank you!

Hi,

How would one shade windows in 16.04? Without using ubuntu-tweak that is, which apparently is no longer being maintained?

Hi,

I've been unable to mount external (USB) HDDs for a while now. Indicator LEDs on the drives show that they are connected and working but they never show up in the file manager. USB flash...

...but unetbootin works great! Thanks!

I'm having this problem right now too. My ISO is fine, and gparted doesn't make it far enough to install the bootloader.

Worked for me too, thanks! Been after a solution for that one for a while.

Hi,

I just upgrade to Lubuntu 13.04 with no problems except no sound. This seems like a somewhat common problem in Ubuntu but I've tried making sure alsamixer isn't muted/low, removing pulseaudio...

Hi,

I've just upgrade to Lubuntu 12.04 and I'm having some trouble getting lxdm.conf to behave the way I want it to. I want numlock to be enabled on startup and so edited...

I use Lubuntu exclusively on both my laptop and desktop. It's not quite as smooth as Ubuntu, but I would definitely describe it as "safe", and the benefits far outway any minor hassles. In fact, with...

Good suggestion, rph2go. Both calibre and fbreader are good, calibre for organising a library and fbreader for viewing, as mentioned.

I have exactly this problem too. It's very frustrating, you can't change all of the font sizes. It's annoying, Lubuntu is by far the best Ubuntu distribution atm.

I found this thread which seems to point to the problem - that the sound module is not being loaded first.

When I open alsamixer and press F6 to select the sound card the options are

I have lubuntu installed fine on my laptop (and I love it - happy to put up with a bug or two while it matures) but I have just installed it on a friend's netbook and I have the no sound problem. I'm...

You are quite right, I can see the keybindings in there, but I can't find the scrrenshot key despite much searching with every string I can think of.

Is is possible to change the screenshot key in lubuntu? I keep dropping the keyboard and filling my drive up with pics so I want to change it from PrintScreen to Alt-PrintScreen. I assume there's a...

Thankyou! Been trying to fix this for ages.

According to a poster on another forum synaptic on their distro will not installed uninstalled packages that are on hold. Is this a bug?

Also bump.

Is that really necessary? Why not just disable the suspend/hibernate and turn the machine of manually when you need? That's all I've been doing.

I've got the upside-down webcam issue in my Asus laptop. I've fixed the problem for Skype by following the solution in this thread, but the problem persists for Google Video Chat, and anything else...

I'm in the process of installing the usual Python/Numpy/Scipy/Matplotlib combination. I'm using the installed version of Python (2.7) (Ubuntu 11.04) but I've compiled Numpy and Scipy (and...

A start perhaps? If there's someone who knows more about the workings Office...

I'm using Wine and I get the same error (presumably, there's no way to tell what's going on with good old MS)

Whenever I go into Synaptic and try to change the settings clicking on 'Apply' or 'Ok' causes the main Synaptic window to gray out and the program to freeze. I can't find any similar complaints...

Okay, seems my problem was that I'd tried to upgrade to Python 2.7 and had followed this guide to changing the default Python version. Ubuntu does not like this. Changed it back and everything is...

There has been a red circle icon with a big white bar through it in the notifications area of my panel for days now. The alt-text (is that what it's called for an icon?) says "A problem occurred...
