Hi,

I am trying to print from my 12.04 machine to the office KONICA-MINOLTA-bizhub-C20 printer. When I try to print, nothing happens and I get this error in the log file /var/log/cups/error_log

I am trying to package up a web application on the LAMP stack that also uses shell scripts and a MYSQL database. I have never packaged anything before, I have found lots of documentation on...

Hi,

Rhythmbox has started renaming the files it is downloading, started after a new install of Lucid (I think).

Example:

Hi,

I have been trying to limit some resource hungry processes (I think they are badly coded, the developer is on holiday for several more weeks) using cpulimit.

But I am uncertain of it's...

Well whatever the specific details of the screenshots are, it doesn't matter, changing the to "best shapes" and changing the hinting works fine. It means I can turn the effects back on AND use OO and...

The screenshot on the bug report is also what I am seeing...

OK, I have found the bug on launchpad:

And the given wisdom is to disable compiz or:

So when...

I remembered you had said this, so I turned off visual effects, and so far no issues... I can live without effects, being able to use apps is the priority..

I might raise (but first look for) a...

I have tried playing with several fonts, some seem to behave, and others do not... where can I check to see if a bug has been raised for this?

Sorry I forgot mention I had tried your tutorial on the clean install of Lucid. I use Oo and Lucid at work with no issues, so this a real puzzle....

You might be right, but I don't know enough about this to figure out what is going on. I have now reinstalled Lucid because I went from Karmic and then through Lucid Alpha, and I wondered if that may...

It worked for me too for a couple of reboots... but now every time I boot I have to enable the effects. It is a little disappointing that when you upgrade so many things stop working.... :(

Any...

I am going to bump this as now it is starting to get unfunny. I installed Scribus from the repository and I am getting the same effect. Should I do a complete re-install of Lucid (which sounds a...

I would like to bump this thread by saying I have exactly the same issue... Is this a kernel problem? I have Lucid on three PCs (one is remix) and they all suffer from poor (or no) USB auto mounting...

Yes, I followed those (your) instructions to the letter. OO installed apparently fine, and there were no problems, but then the top File, Edit etc bar started to corrupt. There are fewer font...

I am glad I am not alone. I have tried downloading and installing the packages from the OOo site, and the problem is still there.... does anyone have any ideas? I have OO on two other machines and...

Thanks for the ideas. Well, I have turned off Screen Font Anti-Aliasing and now Oo looks like it is from 1995... but, at least nothing is breaking. I am guessing this is a display driver issue... I...

Hi,
I hope someone knows what is going on here. I am running 10.04 and I have a serious problem with the Open office menus and tool bars, as you can see from the screenshot, they are corrupted.

Thanks .gr.c. worked for me a treat, much appreciate you sharing this.

Hi,

I have a number files with some rows of information I want to extract, at the same time I want to add to a string some details from the file. I have found two different ways of looping over...

Thanks Sisco, that works... I'll go and do some reading me thinks.

Thanks for the reply John,

So I tried running the script with:

Hi,

I hope someone can help, I have stared so long at this now.. maybe I am missing something obvious...

No worries, I am glad to see it is not just me with this issue.. my hardware is not that unusual or old. It just reminds me why I have a dual boot system with both Ubuntu and XP....

Well, I thought I would give this another try... I ran the command:


cvt 1280 1024 60

and it gave me:
