I had a similar issue with Amnesia, so I just got the tarball from the bundle website.

As for Psychonauts, I would strongly suggest you get the Windows version instead and run it through WINE 1.4....

Woooooo!

I got psychonauts to work in WINE by doing the following:

winetricks dxdiagn

No, I have 12.04. The forum just won't let me change it because it claims I have less than 50 posts even though I clearly have more :/

I tried the Psychonauts version, but even with the patch it was unplayable because of crashing bugs.

I tried running the Windows version through WINE, but it gives me a message saying that I need...

The solution didn't work for me on Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit, what what DID work was setting the rate to 48 kHz, then using OSS (through the pauseaudio wrapper since Ubuntu dropped native OSS support)

...

Aha! I have begun to figure it out. The reason, in hindsight, was obvious: it didn't have a background colour defined, but instead inherited the default.

To fix the background colour of menus,...

I just "upgraded" to Ubuntu 12.04. After trying out Unity again and discovering it to still be broken, I switched back to gnome classic. The first thing I noticed is that the panel's colouring is...

I have the same problem (on Ubuntu 11.10) except it's pure white pixels instead of pure black pixels and it happens on any flash file, and only if firefox is minimized (if I drag a window with pure...

This has been bugging me for a while: what exactly is the programming icon in the Humanity theme supposed to be? I assume it's a shovel, but I don't see how that relates to programming or computers....

Thank you! That solved the problem and returned GNOME Classic to normal,

When I started up my computer today, there was a bunch of updates to do. After installing them, then restarting X, nautilus is showing it's menu bar on the top of my desktop. (see linked image). It...

I switched back to version-current, but still have the problem.
Yes, I am using 11.10 Oneiric. My account just says I use 9.10 because apparently the forum doesn't let you change that until you have...

Hi, I have an interesting problem: I have screen tearing, but ONLY on the top of my screen. It's almost like the top 8% of my laptop is 1 frame behind.

It occurs in all applications, but to test...

I did try Metacity with compositing, but the screen didn't redraw properly when dragging files or text around, so I turned it's compositing off and used Cairo instead.
Plus, Cairo lets you choose...

With the mouse polling fix, I got everything working in Compiz so I abandoned Metacity + Cairo in favour of Compiz, though there's screen tearing when I use anything other than Compiz. I'll try...

That's... strange. Perhaps Metacity doesn't work with LDXE. If the keyboard doesn't work and there's no window decorations, that means that no window manager is running so it seems Metacity is...

I'm using the proprietary drivers from NVidia. They work perfectly when playing graphics intensive games like 0 A.D. The only problem is that the GPU is always at the highest performance level no...

I've been looking for something like this too.

Compiz has a major bug where nothing is redrawn while you are dragging windows.
Mutter crashes whenever you go to screensaver, lock the screen, or...

UPDATE: It seems to be a massive bug with Compiz

In my experience with Ubuntu, I've had nothing but trouble with Compiz....

So I just got my System76 computer, and it works great with one exception: the window manager is EXTREMELY laggy.

It's so bad, that if I set my terminal to have a transparent background, and try...

Yes, it does work. Just replace every instance of "hoary" with "lucid" and do this:
sudo cp /var/lib/locales/supported.d/* /chroot/var/lib/locales/supported.d/
just before the last line of step 1....

AHA! I fixed it! This "solution" will probably change the cursor for ALL users, but oh well.

To fix this and make Ubuntu use the right cursors, go to /etc/alternatives and change the symbolic link...

Thanks for the reply. I got the old awesome loading bar back, and I think I could probably change the window side borders back to hairline thickness, but I'm kind of liking the look of Ambiance so I...

I just made a bunch of cursor using xcursorgen and images of the default Vista cursor I turned green in GIMP, then named the cursors to match the names used by other built-in cursor set and put them...

I've been using a version of the Vista cursor that I made green since I got Ubuntu 9.10. Unfortunately, when I switched to Ubuntu 10.4, it... broke. The green cursor shows up in firefox and the busy...
