update for others with similar problems:
The issue is related to AMD's proprietary Catalyst 14.x drivers. Uninstalling them and using the open source drivers resolves the problem, though obviously...
So I've spent a few hours trying to hunt down exactly where this bug comes from, and I was hoping to get some other ideas, because I'm starting to run out.
Upgraded from 13.10 to 14.04 last...
OK got it.
Turns out that while linux kernels ship with a Sierra driver, its a stupid sucky one (at least from our perspective). Here's the one we want (for Kernel 3.0 or higher)

So I've been using Ubuntu on both my laptop and netbook forever and I had/have a Sprint U727 from work. Its nominally 3g but slow as all getout. Fortunately I have really reliable broadband here and...
I'm having the same problem here on two different 12.04 systems.
I had an older Sprint USB 3G modem that worked out of the box no questions asked forever in Ubuntu (last time I genuinely had to...
So I've been trying to install 10.04 (AMD64) since last night on my HP P6130f. I installed a second hard drive specifically for it (a Caviar Green 1 TB) so I wouldn't have to trash my existing 9.10...
This problem seems to have been true since I upgraded to 9.10, but I can't figure out why it's the case.
powernow-k8 seems to be putting my Phenom X4 9750 into "cool n' quiet" mode at 1200 Mhz on...
It might not be an upgradable system, most of the 950's I've seen are in laptops or Micro-cases (like the MacMini). But yeah, the sad truth is the early intel GMAs don't perform very well at all in...
Yeah its doable a lot of ways... what I finally did was as follows
sudo -s (so you don't have to put sudo in front of everything)
eject /dev/sr1 (or /dev/sr0 if you're using a system...
So I've been fiddling with this for awhile and I think I'm close...
Here's what I did:
sudo eject /dev/sr1
sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0x1410 product=0x4100
sudo modprobe option
I've been fiddling with this too on my hardy netbook. If I eject the "CD" and right click on the network manager, it appears to detect and set it up, but when it tell it to connect it immediately...
So I'm trying to get this Novatel U727 working with my assorted Ubuntu systems. They all detect it as a CD-ROM at first, and once I eject that they all seem to notice what it actually is. But...

delete the <Delete/> key after the Wine entry and all your old Wine stuff reappears.
I can't vouch for every single one of those games, but if a game functions for the purposes of online multiplay it should also function fine in a LAN situation.
I've successfully done this with...
Since upgrading to Karmic last week I notice some new issues with Flash video playback.
About: Running Karmic 64-bit on a quad core system with 8 GB of ram. Using Metacity.
Problem: Some...
At first it was 1.1.32, then I "upgraded" to 1.1.31 that Karmic comes with. Doing that caused the problems to be less catastrophic... they still crashed but didn't require a hard reboot to fix...
Best of luck with it, I had a similar specced machine that I never did get Wow running acceptably on. Those intel graphics are really touchy with wine.
So I upgraded to Karmic last night, and Wine seems to be suddenly problematic. A couple of the games that worked flawlessly in 9.04 (RT2 Platinum and HOI Doomsday) are puking, badly.
RT2 crashes...
Ugh, the svn I just got failed half way through.
Do any of those loki games even work anymore? I couldn't get HOMM3 working so I ended up installing the Windows version in Wine instead.
Open the file browser (click Places then pick Home Folder or Documents or something)
Control + L to open up the location bar
paste the following:
~/.config/menus
open applications.menu...
Yes, I had this exact same problem. The fix is really simple, but not obvious:
Edit the following file with the editor of your choice:
~/.config/menus/applications.menu
When you delete the...
So I have no idea if this is indicative of anything or if there's anything that even can be done about it... but here goes:
I've had this computer for about two weeks and I've had three errors in...
Yeah that's totally not normal. I'd suggest trying a more recent version of wine straight from winehq.org, maybe there's a bug they fixed.
