To anyone that finds this problem
I don't know what exactly the cause was, but installing gvfs and several reboots managed to magically fix the problem. If you find a definitive cause/fix feel free...

I installed pulseaudio-dev trying to troubleshoot what turned out to be a miscompiled libav - and now pulseaudio won't start. It shows no errors or warnings - all I know is that the indicator still...

I have this idea for a wallmounted screen with a rack containing the keyboard and a touchpad for the mouse.

Basically I want to issue a voice command of my choosing and have the rack lower...

Every time I've installed xorg-edgers it's bricked my GUI.

Followed by several hours of manually removing broken dependancies etc, etc...

But I'll install them manually then.

Using 310.14 I got a "Red screen of death" where the whole screen went full on #FF0000 red.

At first I thought the cable was loose but after a reboot syslog had a cryptic error message:


NVRM:...

Anyone know what the cause is? It was bugging me for ages until it suddenly (And unexpectedly) fixed itself and now after a driver update it's back.

Symptoms
Everything except the mouse cursor is...

I just bought a logitech G500 and it's working beautifully, I have xbindkeys setup like so:

# Third thumb button
"xte 'keydown 0'"
b:10
"xte 'keyup 0'"
Release + b:10

# 2 extra index...

When I hold my cursor next to a web page with a white background (As in #FFFFFF) the cursor is about twice as bright as the web page.

Everything except that cursor is severely darkened and I don't...

Dependancy hell... So many circular dependancies in xorg-edgers you can't downgrade a package without wiping your whole system because instead of just downgrading the dependancies it removes them,...

Well... I tried to do it myself and now it's taken 15 minutes just to get 800x600 xserver up and running...

nvidia-settings is constantly telling me to nvidia-xconfig and restart X and that's not...

So I installed xorg-edgers ppa to get the new nvidia driver and then it was put into x-swat ppa so I wanted to downgrade back to x-swat but now I've got a whole bunch of xorg-edgers stuff installed...

I came here to ask about this problem. It started a few weeks ago for me and has recently become rediculous. (xubuntu, 64bit) The system crashes so utterly there are no logs and reisub doesn't even...

The latest nvidia security update (Just like the ubuntu-x-swat beta drivers) causes all sorts of crashyness on xubuntu 12.04

It looks like my only option is to reverse to the insecure video...

Long story short: There's an error I've never seen before and I don't know why it's happening. Can anyone help?

I'm using an ecryptfs home partition and I've been noticing a lot of file corruption lately. Games would prompt a repair dialogue, verifying data in transmission would always cause it to redownload...

Yes. The terminal it opens complains about a missing folder.

Yeah that doesn't work, all it did was remove flash altogether - now I don't have any...

As the title says, I'm having a ton of crashes of firefox.

Firefox version is 13.0.1 on Xubuntu 12.04.

Sometimes I get the crash dialogue and clicking "Restart firefox" just results in a new...

Last time I tried that it wouldn't start X (Back when I was using a "From scratch" cli > openbox setup)

Might as well just use xfwm4 and enable/disable compositing (Which is what I've done for now)

It's lack of compositing also makes decent screencasting impossible (With x11grab)

A more in-depth look at icewm shows their preference program last got an update in 2004... I'd rather not have a WM that's 8 years old thanks.

Awesomewm doesn't seem like my style either.

I may...

In windowed mode it happens too

An nvidia GTX 680... Yes I know I know :D

The main issue is that without compositing (Openbox for example) ffmpeg screengrab through x11grab (By far the best screencasting on linux btw) shows up...

No, does it have compositing?

I need a window manager and so far I've struck out on compiz xfwm and openbox.
