Hello,
I have a DVD which is your typical DVD movie disc. I have used dvd::rip to rip certain titles off the DVD into .vob files. (Not sure if this has to do with anything, but on the DVD there...
Yes ... Or update the graphics driver package :P
The one that worked for me was the "Beta" one from here.
Thanks!
The other day, I updated several packages, no more than about 10, I think, including 'xserver-xorg-core'. Now I cannot reach a desktop. When I rebooted, I could not reach a desktop and the screen...
Wow, well, if it's a bug in the graphics drivers, be sure to report it to whomever develops them!
Hopefully that solves the issue for good.
I have a ton of ideas, but I'm not sure if any of them will lead you in the right direction. Perhaps the best idea would be to attempt these in order of difficulty:
Check the kernel logs for...
While this may or may not actually be the case, it does sound like a classic memory issue, though typically you would have problems running the Live CD, too, if that were the case. So the first thing...
Hmm... which graphics card do you have?
This will most likely only be solvable by installing the proprietary drivers. Otherwise, you can try the xorg-edgers PPA. I have recommended it to a few people but I'm not sure if it works.
Hi Thunder Teaser,
Sounds troublesome. It could be a very large number of things, so it might be good to try to narrow things down: Does the same behavior happen with a Live USB/DVD? It would be...
Hi,
Something is wrong with your software source files. You or a program you installed probably put something there that apt does not like.
For now, you should probably run
sudo rm -rfv...
It looks like you have an Intel graphics card ... In my experience, these drivers have been very stable.
Maybe you could try the xorg-edgers ppa?
Hi,
You will probably have better luck if you log in to Windows and try to read the file from there instead. Though it sounds like you are unable to do so. (Perhaps we can help you with the bigger...
The next step would be to figure out what kind of graphics card you have. If you type either of the two commands, you can find out:
lspci | grep VGA
sudo lshw -c display(With the second one you...
Yes, I wouldn't expect a game that old to play well with modern software, especially modern graphics software. Driver features change and out-of-date programs become unable to handle them.
You could...
You probably just want to use the regular Terminal (ctrl+alt+T). I don't know exactly why UXterm and Xterm are provided. Some programs require them because they are a very simple, standard terminal...
Hi,
It sounds like this is a graphics issue. Often, something will go wrong during the upgrade and the correct driver package won't get installed.
Be sure that your caps lock key isn't on, etc. The...
Hi,
This is a UTF-16 encoded file, and (as far as I can tell from a quick Google) there is some sort of bug in Windows that does not set the encoding correctly. Open the file in UTF-16. This can be...
Which graphics card do you have, and are you using proprietary drivers?
And what is the name of the program?
Good call on the mouse! I found a guide here: http://fcns.eu/2011/04/01/cyborg-rat-7-mouse-under-linux/
The dd command isn't what you want to use for writing dvds (as you now see). It is a file copier, in a sense, but it doesn't copy files themselves, it copies raw data. So you have probably messed up...
Which driver are you using now (from Additional Drivers or nVidia website and what version), and what is the state of the machine?
Can you post the contents of /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?
Ubuntu 13.04 is a very complete operating system with few or no bugs. There were no huge improvements or changes made since 12.10. If you're trying to decide which version to install, then there's...
Those two files were a README and a shortcut to the program designed to help the user access the data, which should be stored in `/home/[username]/.private`. Deleting them would only get you the 100...
As long as the accounts themselves are deleted, a quick
sudo rm -rfv to the home directory (/home/[username]) should do the trick.
It feels like a bug in the source code, since line numbers are given. Perhaps you could try 0.9.8 instead. But you may end up actually going into the source code to fix this. Try opening the...
