So, after days of screwing around with varying instructions, I finally got my Samsung Chronos 7 video working. This laptop uses an intel/AMD hybrid graphics:


$ lspci | grep VGA

Thanks Gertin! works for me.

Hi oldarney, Could you please post your workaround?

Try Krusader. It's in the repos. In the tools menu, there's a "synchronise directories option. Kursader works over all common network protocols, and has a really nice, but highly configurable...

Thanks john, that worked for me!

Here's what I've got. Run
cvt -r 1680 1050
That will give you some output like:

# 1680x1050 59.88 Hz (CVT 1.76MA-R) hsync: 64.67 kHz; pclk: 119.00 MHz
Modeline "1680x1050R" 119.00 1680 1728...

None of the methods here keep the underlying text in an OCR'd djvu when converting to a pdf. Anyone know how to do that?

Er.. no. This is an Ubuntu packaging problem. Stock open office from the open office website includes this feature: http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=75218

Would be good to get it...

hrm... I think this may have been caused by the wireless attempting to connect on the freerunner, and disabling the usb network interface.

Never-the-less, it'd be nice to be able to blacklist...

I bought a Freerunner the other day (opensource phone/pda), and I'm trying to get usb networking going on my PC at the same time as wireless, so that I can connect to the internet from the...

Good question. I'd also like to know this.

Also tried libmpeg4ip-0, faac and mpeg4ip-utils. Nothing gained.

Hi, I'm trying to read my library in JuK, since I need something more lightweight than Amarok. Problem is that it won't read artist/album/title/etc. tags from .aac files (I'm guessing they're m4a,...

Krusader: The almighty spaw of Konqueror and MidnightCommander. The best way to back up (sync command rocks!)

Hugin makes nice panoramas, including layered ones you can then edit in Gimp.

LASH,...

Haha! Konqueror kicks filezilla's ****, any day. heaps quicker, much more functional, and able to edit files in place with any editor.

There are no programs in windows that don't have usable linux...

Just to confirm, I tried replacing kwin:
kwin --replace &
but nothing changed. On the off chance it might help, I also installed and tried this with metacity. No luck.

Does anyone know if...

I'm having the same problem as described by ethanthekiwi - everything works fine, except the viewport is black (with red and white lines at the top, as if the resolution were wrong or something, see...

thanks for the info, Zephik.

I'm also getting the black screen issue, but I'm using the intel driver, so the envy solution won't work for me. Good to have confirmation that it's a driver issue...

I think this is a brilliant idea - we should put in a blueprint on launchpad.net.

I disagree that the windows trouble shooter is bad. I think it's actually a quite good system, for non-technical...

that's a nice howto ;) thanks.

seems like poser 6 works pretty OK with some versions of linux, including Ubuntu Dapper. seems like 5 works well on some systems too... could be worth a try!

open office has track changes... it even reads M$Word track changes, although I don't think it can write them to .doc format properly. not sure about that.

funny, most people seems to be saying games. for me, that's one of the reasons I got RID of XP. too many distractions!

I have had to use it recently though, for CAD (sketchup actually, and I'd...
