Thanks, that did it for me, also. What a nasty bug!
Nope, you didn't miss anything. It's still broken, I'll bet until 11.10. I had to wipe and restore. Luckily, I had just backed up my system that same day when it happened to me.
Sorry, guys. I...
Two errors:
"Could not update .ICEauthority file /home/myusername/.ICEauthority"
and
"There is a problem with the configuration server. (/usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with...
I can't believe this.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.10.
Everything seemed to be in order, but I started having problems with Openoffice- it started crashing randomly, usually within a minute of...
Thanks for the suggestion, but I already searched ubuntuforum and Google, and multiple other sites, otherwise I wouldn't have posted this.
Started a clean install of Ubuntu 10.04 just to test......
Yeah, had to install gstreamer because xubuntu doesn't use it, but it detects the cam perfectly and gets picture when set on vl42.
Skype is still having the same problem though. When I perform the...
KK, will give this a try tomorrow. Currently writing finals. Even if this doesn't work, thank you for the help!
I am running Xubuntu Lucid 10.04 on a Sony Vaio.
I recently dropped $100 on a Logitech QuickCam Vision Pro for Mac, on the recommendation on the ubuntu wiki https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeWebCams...
I've been trying to configure a bittorent client to work properly. Transmission was opening too many connections and maxing out my router. I switched to Azureus, which supposedly allows one to...
Yeah, we'll see what happens.
After coming back to this WAY later, I've discovered nessus has been replaced by OpenVAS.
Package nessus is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package...
Problem fixed itself... I'm still not sure how!
I'm saying installing linux on a Mac is sub-optimal, for numerous reasons.
Do what you want guys, it's your hardware, (god knows you paid good money for it) but honestly, why blow the money mac...
I knew I was a geek when I stayed up for two days straight reading about C, fell asleep dreaming about C, and woke up able to think only in STDIN, STDO, and STDERR.
Also, I attempt to tab complete...
Oh, forgot your original question.
If you STILL really want to try *nix, I would suggest, as someone said before, OpenSUSE. Yast will make configuration even easier than Ubuntu. It's basically the...
Man, don't install linux on a Macbook. What will you do if you break OSX?
Also, ubuntu will never be equivalent to OSX- they follow different design philosophies and have different goals.
If...
It doesn't look like there will be much room for customization if everything is remote. That's sort of sad...
Unless I can get host it on my server and connect with my netbook ^___^
******* hasn't touched my box in two years! I will never go back to it.
MAYBE I could see why a gamer would want to keep ******* around... but honestly, linux gaming and drivers are getting better...
I connected to my desktop via ssh and forwarded X to my laptop yesterday. It's sweet! One problem though- now all of my media players are attempting to send output to my laptop, giving errors like...
I love linux. I am consistently amazed at how much I've learned since I started with ubuntu. When I look back at the posts I made as a noob it makes me smile.
I feel that I have come very far, to...
Ahahaha, yeah, machines are obviously my strong point, more than people.
But hypothetically, if one of them wants to use port 22 in the future, our router is going to send out packets, and then...
I need some help ubuntuforums. My roommates are going to crucify me. I installed openssh-server on my workstation at home. I opened port 22 in my linksys' firewall, and forwarded it to my...
Why do you think they did away with nessus? I guess I'll have to compile from source.
me@boltbox:~$ apt-cache show nessus
me@boltbox:~$
Where did my software go?
