my main username on ubuntu one, launchpad, etc. is residualbit
could it be updated here as well, please?
With the old software center, I could just go in and remove it, but it does not show in the gnome software center. It also doesn't show in synaptic. It goes away if I remove unity-webapps-common, but...
Makes sense. I've been playing around with Unity 8 off and on. I actually have it running on my nexus 7 and it's pretty awesome there. Previewing on the desktop though is another story altogether...I...
Like the title says, I'm wondering what end-stage, ready-for-desktop Unity 8 will look like and whether it will break the Unity 7 workflow and additionally, things like shortcuts, window management,...
I'm not sure what changed, or if maybe I'm just crazy, but I'm pretty sure running bleachbit as root, via the shortcut, used to show basically the same entries as non-root (all applications, etc.)

Solved. I should have done some more searching up front. Basically, this is a known bug in the version in the 14.04 repos. Updating to the current version from the website (4.3.26) fixed the issue.
Running ubuntu 14.04 with an nvidia 750 ti using driver 346.
When I try to enable 3d accelertation, it shows the invalid settings detected message, then generates a system error:

Yeah, it's pretty annoying. You can turn it off by clicking the cog on the right and changing it from enhanced to classic.
That being said, I've found that occasionally, ads still show up there,...
I was using lavabit as my email provider during the shutdown. I respect their decision and think they made the right one, but it was a PITA nonetheless. There are still a few misc. accounts here and...
9d9, upgrading to a still-in-beta, non-lts release is probably not the best advice for someone new to ubuntu and already having issues... Installing nvidia-346, or any other drivers from the ppa is...
Which driver did you actually install and from where?
I have a 750ti and have been using the 346.xx driver without issue.
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa
sudo apt-get update...
So in general, if I am having issues with certain hardware specifically due to the HES and have no qualms about re-installing, I'm not losing anything by reinstalling 14.04 and just installing all of...
My understanding is that main purpose of the LTS point releases, apart from just collecting all of the previous updates, is to use a newer kernel to allow for LTS support on newer hardware.
My...
I have another computer I was playing around with and am not having this problem there. Granted, that one is using intel integrated graphics.
Is this maybe a bug with the open source ATI driver?...
Running 14.04.2
At boot, the splash screen is just solid puprle, no logo with dots. I've installed the numix theme, and if I try to use it, it seems to sort of affect the shutdown splash, but not...
...is hideous. Is there ever a plan to have a more xfce-style replacement? Sure, there are alternatives, but gnome-screensaver gives you no config options unless you install a ton of gnome packages...
Nah, I just looked it up on ARIN. Whois shows that the whole block is owned by Canonical, so I guess there's my answer. I suppose I overthought this one...Thanks!
On a whim, I decided to let wireshark do a few captures because I noticed some strange, quick spikes in network use when I first log in. Anyway, I almost immediately receive a TCP packet from...
I started running a separate windows machine through this same monitor via DVI with the same cable and noticed some issues there as well. Not the same exact thing, but similar. I guess that narrows...
I switched from the dvi port to the vga port on the same card, and so far haven't seen the issue. I'll just leave it like that until I can get around to buying a new card I guess.
This is an issue I have not seen before and is quite strange. I took some screenshots, but realized that the static is not actually captured on them.
What I am seeing is wavy/shaky blue static on...
I using using geany for python development only. Is there any way to set python as the default language/filetype when I open a new file or launch geany?
Thanks.
