Hello,

I'm trying to use my DragonFly Black 1.5 DAC with Ubuntu 16.04 on a laptop. I'm playing 96khz files via qmmp; the log contains stuff like:

BITRATE = 2744
SAMPLERATE = 96000
CHANNELS =...

I have an Impact LX 25 MIDI keyboard. It's working nicely under Windows, and everything seems to be fine hardware-wise. But in Linux I have the most basic problem: connecting it to a synthesizer. My...

Thanks! Unfortunately right now I won't try your solution since I shouldn't risk any video catastrophe in the coming days and so I will not remove the drivers, but I will check this in the future.

Thanks for the suggestion. I just tried that -- it also doesn't work! (I rebooted.) This is 14.04.1 64-bit. I doublechecked the path to the script, and that the script really does his job when ran. I...

Thank you, but I did that (in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf), and unfortunately it didn't work. (There was no difference in screen behaviour after logging out and back in.)

OK, the issue is solved for me. In a dirty way.

If someone has a similar problem like, here's what I did:
1) created a file correctvideomode.sh (it can be whenever you want) consisting solely of...

So yeah, I guess in this thread I will be documenting my fascinating adventures into the mess which is the nvidia relationship with X.

Today I learned that the system has an X log file (yeah, I'm...

I hope I'll be forgiven for making another post on this.

So, I inserted the '410 256' screen dimensions by hand to xorg.conf (section Monitor, option DisplaySize). No change.
Right after startup,...

PARTIAL SUCCESS: namely,things are back to how they were in 13.10. In my case setting the drivers to 331.38, rebooting and running nvidia-settings again had the effect of it displaying

Mine has been set to quiet splash for a long time now. I thought it just meant I wouldn't see many starting messages?

Nvidia-settings, apart from telling me "error querying target relations" on...

I just upgraded from 13.10 to 14.04.1; I'm using the nvidia drivers.

My monitor is LG Flatron W1943S, 1440x900. Already in 13.10 after booting the corners of the display were not visible; I had to...

Doing the purge, and then deleting the hidden $HOME/.config/vlc directory did the trick at least partially: the program now works, but sound is garbled.

Let me just add that doing "aptitude purge vlc" and reinstalling vlc did not help at all!

12.04 64bit.

I set vlc as a default application for mkv files using Nautilus.

Now vlc does not work at all. If I open any video file, simply nothing happens. If I run it from the terminal, a...

Update:

- booting from Live CD
- choosing "Try ubuntu"
- using the Disk Utility to format the drive as ext2 as opposed to ext4
- installing WITHOUT REBOOTING, specifying the partition manually...

I've used Ubuntu on my desktop since 2008. The only major change I made was upgrading (via internet) to 9.10. The PC contains 2 PATA drives connected to a new mobo by a RAID controller. The 200 GB...

Unfortunately, I can't do that - it seems I tricked myself and no one else is to blame. That was an extremely cheap offer, and now I know why ;)

Eh, it's still usable. I'll be using it for quick...

Oh boy. You seem to be 100% correct. I just checked Windows 7, which I dual boot, and it also recognizes 1024x600 as a maximum.

My number is 722-C52kk LU.SFT02.117.

Now I don't even know why I...

I installed 11.04. I compiled the wifi drivers and wifi is working now. But I cannot set the proper screen resolution - 1024x600 is the highest I can go! Doesn't matter whether I use Unity or...

Heh,


sudo apt-get remove xscreensaver

seems to have done the trick.

Hello,

I have an old Thinkpad on which I have installed Xubuntu 10.04. Unfortunately:

- the screensaver locks the machine so that even Alt-SysRQ-b does not work
- when I click on Applications...

Renee Fleming? Classy :D

Thanks for the info!

First, it's fantastic that my solution worked for you, I can't even remember how many times I benefited from these forums, so it's nice to see that I've been helpful at least once :-)

And...

I also have this problem, with a 1 TB Western Digital disk. Am I reading something wrong, or does the bug linked to above have the status "Won't fix"? Why? For me this is a serious problem, since I...

Trying to compile this on Karmic again; no luck. When building vlc, after running ./configure with the suggested options (everything seems to have gone fine), "make jobs=4" ends with the following:
