Hi,

I recently bought a new laptop and installed Ubuntu on it. Unfortunately it seems the touchpad is not supported - I can live with that.

Problem 2 is that the mouse is not working properly....

*Bump*

No one else has experienced this or know of what could be wrong?
It justed happened again and I looked through /var/log/syslog, but I couldn't really see anything that should be an error -...

For hardware you could check out Raspberry-Pi. It's fairly cheap and uses significantly less power than a full blown computer and for just showing stuff on screen you shouldn't really need more...

I really does look like you're typing the wrong password... Before you posted the log I was going to suggest that password login was disabled, but it looks like it is enabled on the server.

If you do


man wget


You can then see the syntax for wget. One option when downloading just one file could be


wget -O <output-file> <URL>

Hi all,

I'm having issues on my Ubuntu 13.04 (x64) installation.

Sometimes when playing flash in Firefox the flash will suddenly get stuck (like a scratch in an old music CD) and just loop the...

I suppose that's a way to say it. Maybe 50/50 upstream and hardware support...

I didn't mean for each bug-fix - though I can see the subject suggesting that - I just meant that since they have this "What would you like us to improve.." page when donating, it'd be nice to be...

Just a suggestion - add bug-fixing to the list of "What we should do more.." when donating.

This is not meant to be disrespectful - but it is a fact, that testing and bug-fixing is required in...

Did any of you find a fix for this ?

Or do I have to launch a terminal and do killall banshee everytime I want to close it :/

Well, tried memtest for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Still no errors.

I'm still wondering about dmesg - I guess I should Google it :) - but if someone beats me to posting a link or description of how to...

Will give it a try for a few hours - just gave it one pass.

During boot it's after a cold boot - rebooting a few times solves the problem. Else it's usually while playing certain games.

I...

A PC. That is - not a laptop, so no batteries. This doesn't rule out the possibility of a faulty PSU though. I'd just like to be able to test before I go out and buy new components - else it could...

Hi

I'm having an issue with my machine freezing and I suspect it might be a hardware issue since it sometimes freezes during boot even before Grub, BIOS etc.

I've been running Memtestx86+ which...

I'm having the same issue.

Setting Visual Effects to "None" does make eog work as expected.

Is there any other solutions ? Maybe another image viewer ?

The use a better cable did the trick for me :)

Much easier than messing with xorg.conf files!


...and wasn't there once a "Thank you for this message button" on the forums to show appreciation...

After changing to Eclipse Helios I haven't had problems with Eclipse on 10.4. I'm downloading from the eclipse download site - so not using apt-get. And I'm using the sun-java6 package.

Hmm, in that case I guess I'm better off getting an nVidia card - possibly something like the GTX460. Does anyone have experience with that one?

*bump*

Is there really noone which has tried this card ? Or similar cards ?

Basically I'm concerned because I know ATI cards used to cause a lot of problems for Ubuntu users, and secondly...

Hi.
I'm about to buy the components for a new desktop, and it seems the Radeon HD 5870 is a good buy for my needs/desires.

But does anyone know if it works well with Ubuntu (preferably 64-bit)?...

I'm having the same problem.

Thanks for the tips, but unfortunately none of it works. I tried booting in 9.04 and Eclipse runs with no trouble there. I've also tried with both eclipse 3.4 and 3.5...

I don't know why it has to be done, but all the scripts does is editing the file:

.wine/drive_c/users/<username>/Local Settings/Application...

Thanks a lot guys. Definitely given me some options to consider and play around with :)

So far I've installed emacs, eclipse and code::blocks and they all seem to do nicely for my needs....

Hi
I'm just about to start on a project which needs to be written in C - not C++.

There is no GUI programming involved as the hardware the program is for has no screen.

I'm basically looking...

If you already know C# it should be fairly easy for you to learn Java. The Javadoc for the API is a good place to learn I think, since one of the big differences between C# and Java is the API's....
