I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 on an Acer Aspire V7 (i7 Haswell CPU). Playing any kind of movie file mkv, mp4 etc on VLC or Totem is horribly choppy with very slow frame rate like the computer can't handle...

Hi praeodym. Thanks, I tried that and rebooted. Still the same problem though.

Tried that - sudo dhclient eth0 didn't seem to do anything though. I waited for 5+ minutes but didn't complete.

ifconfig -a gave:



eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 08:9e:01:e0:2d:71

Thanks for sticking with this. Tried that but made no difference, still got the same problem.

lsmod:

Hi praseodym, thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately doesn't help though I get the same problem. Also on booting the laptop I get the error message 'No DHCP or ProxyOffers were received'.

Running Ubuntu 14.04 on my laptop I can connect to the internet wirelessly no problem but when I try to connect to the router via a lan cable I am unable to get a connection. It seems I am unable to...

I have an Acer V7 running Ubuntu 14.04. Playing videos in VLC & Totem I get perfect audio but the video quality is poor. It seems to have very low frame rate and there is lots of tearing. Using...

Hmm a further software center update of most of those packages applied today seems to have fixed the problem.

I notice in the software center history I have a couple of graphics related updates from a couple of days ago: libgl1-mesa-dri, libglapi-mesa, libgles2-mesa, libgl1-mesa-glx, libopenvg1-mesa,...

I'm running Ubuntu 13.10 on an Acer V7 using the Haswell integrated graphics and Chromium (Version 31.0.1650.63 Ubuntu 13.10 (31.0.1650.63-0ubuntu0.13.10.1~20131204.1)). Up until today everything was...

I don't have a messages file at that location. I have a syslog file which contains the following:

Thanks for the response - so I think the relevant line of the lspci output is this:

Assuming the first 3 numbers...

I have an Acer Aspire V7 running Ubuntu 13.10 with an NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M graphics card. Currently though I'm not using this at all I'm just using the standard Integrated Haswell Graphics. I've...

Is it possible to have one program (Banshee for example) set to always play any audio over HDMI (if connected) while the rest of the system outputs any audio over the laptop speakers or headphone...

For the most part yes it does brilliantly. It's just those slightly less common ones I've noticed which is why I was wondering whether they're perhaps not implemented as standard as the others. Is...

I use Banshee to organise my music library but am trying to upload to collection to Google Music now. The problem is with some (not all) files metadata/tags don't seem to transfer across very well....

I'm using Banshee 2.4.1 with the android extension installed and a nexus s android phone. Whenever I type in the IP address and port to connect it just says unreachable host. I have had this working...

Bit of a shame the playlists seem a bit messed up but yes I think it works! Google Music manager is uploading (deathly slowly but I guess it always is) so this largely seems to solve what I wanted. ...

Okay well thanks a lot, really appreciate your time and help.

Ah sorry ignore that just found it! Bit fiddly but the folder sync pane was resizeable after all!

Weirdly though the lists are not quite the same? (there are duplicates, one or two missing and a...

Nothing obvious... dragging the standard list wider doesn't add anything to it. The folder sync pane doesn't allow me to resize or move anything as far as I can tell...

Bit stumped here...

I don't think I have a new list to select from? Here is a screenshot so you can see what I mean
