I, too, fell in love with Thankful Eyes and then Vim. So I made one! I recommend using it with the CSApprox plugin.

It's at http://github.com/jayferd/thankful_eyes.vim

@GoatZilla, I think the idea was that it should be able to mount the squashed /usr first, so that by the time it tries to use mount.aufs, it's already got all the scripts it needs in /usr.

The...

That last one is a profile I created after the other one stopped working. I'm not sure how to delete the thing, but I deleted all its keys.

Also, I can play flac files in Rhythmbox, but when I...

okay, now it's not playing anything. I'm thinking of doing a hard reinstall, see if that fixes it. But I want to make sure this is weird enough for that first.

EDIT: D'oh. The speakers...

Here's my gconf-editor, too.

Ah, maybe I didn't make it clear. What I meant by "can't add" is that if I add a profile and click the "Active" checkbox, it still doesn't appear in the dropdown list of available formats in...

Looks pretty normal:



typefindfunctions: audio/x-flac: flac
typefindfunctions: application/x-id3v1: tta, flac, ogg, mpga, mp1, mp2, mp3
typefindfunctions: application/x-id3v2: tta, flac,...

...I also tried opening Sound Juicer, and it says "The current audio profile is not available on your installation", with no hints as to how to make it so! erg!

Ah, yes, I forgot to mention. I did install flac after this happened (sudo aptitude install flac), and it didn't change anything.

Thanks for the reply, though!

Hey all,

So I was re-ripping my cd library yesterday in Rhythmbox (I accidentally wiped my external drive a few weeks ago), and it worked fine for about 15 cd's, but then I ran an update and it...

Bump again. It's been a week now.

3-day bump. Thinking of switching back to Pidgin or something. Is this really that hard to fix?

24-hour bump.

I started empathy, it asked me to enter the password for the default keyring, I entered it, and the whole thing disappeared. Then the thing wouldn't open at all - running "empathy" from the terminal...

Have you tried Synaptic's Edit->Fix Broken Packages ?

Hey guys, I'm glad this is working for you.

I've tried this about 6 times in a row in VBox, saving different files from /usr, and it consistently breaks. I think it's repeatable:

1. Install a...

I second that a fresh install will likely boot much faster than an upgrade.

For further tweaking, I recommend the Ubuntu Boot ppa: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-boot/+archive/ppa

Good luck;...

Wow, guys, the silence is deafening. :(

I've reinstalled on my eeepc, and I'm experimenting on a VM on my desktop. I've done this 3 times from a fresh install now, and basically have gotten...

abqhandyman: I think you want to go over to your control panel ("User CP" in the top left), go to "edit options" in the left menu under "Settings and Options", and scroll down slightly until you see...

The "{ DRDY ERR }" thing you're getting is usually associated with a bad hard drive or corrupted data. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=937872.

Good luck!

Peace,

Bump again. I've switched to aufs, which refuses to work entirely. At this point the thing wipes my fstab every time I try to boot into recovery mode. Help please!

Okay, now every time I boot it empties my fstab. Help please?

I'm running into some weird errors on Karmic UNR. It seems like aufs now needs /usr to be mounted before it will work. When I boot, my /.usr.sqfs gets mounted to /var/squashed/ro, but aufs does...

...bump.

If someone can point me in the direction of something that would provide the functionality of the old unionfs-tools package, that would be awesome. The docs are all pretty vague on this.

That would totally make sense if it came through email. I was assuming YMS was downloading from a voicemail service like AT&T and Comcast (shiver) provide. Although I wouldn't put it past them to...
