:) Mark the thread as solved if you can :)

Glad it worked.
It's easy to do what you need. Remove the line you added (or comment it out) and type in the terminal:


sudo add-apt-repository ppa:n-muench/programs-ppa
sudo apt-get update

Just install this one

Here's how to have a working avidemux in 2 minutes:


sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

Add this line at the end:

Install the gnome-session-fallback package. But don't expect much, it's very basic. To customize panels, just press ALT+right click.

You're right, and I'm sorry. But I hate when such an easy task is so difficult. I use Linux since 2000 and I hate when these situations occur... :(

Thank you, I'll have a look. I'm sorry if I seemed arrogant or whatever but I only love Linux :)

I need to use Skype with a USB phone as my Desktop is also my home phone. Ubuntu is a big failure because:

a) There's not an easy way to configure the USB as the voice device and the monitor...

A workaround is to set gnome power manager to never turn off the display, and start "xset dpms X Y Z" at startup.

I need to turn ON my screen after I got an incoming call through Skype. My speakers are built-in and if the screen is off they can't make any sound. I know I just have to add a custom command in the...

Thanks for this. I missed that post :)

I'm not sure I understood your question, but the syslinux package is part of the standard Ubuntu repository, altough it's not installed by default.

Another solution is to use a login manager (like lxdm). It manages all the consolekit/policykit stuff and so you'll have the right privileges.

I installed a minimal system using the alternate CD. Then I put xorg, openbox, tint2, conky, wbar, pcmanfm, ...

Everything went fine, except:

- xorg didn't get my screen resolution (1366x768,...

Ok sorry, I should have read better.
Anyway I'm using openbox all the time, together with tint2, wbar, conky and pcmanfm. ;)

I didn't search for the new thread so I'll reply here... I solved editing
