Well strange, that folder (~/Desktop/.fr-20GNNv/.../boot-screen/) existed and had a blank something.cfg file in it. I deleted .fr-20GNNv/ and I think it's all working now.

For a while I've been having this problem with the gnome-screenshot utility: I can't save to the desktop.
When the dialog opens, the default destination directory is ~/Pictures (I wish it would...
The specifications are definitely low, but it's the RAM that's the bottleneck. Using most text-based Linux live systems actually isn't intolerably slow, however. The CD-ROM itself and the drive both...
I intend to install Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS Server on an old laptop, a Sony Vaio PCG-SR33K. This laptop has 64MB RAM and can only boot to its internal hard disk or a PCMCIA-attached CD-ROM drive. Said...
That would probably be a better workaround, but I just ran the rsync job one more time and it finally worked.
So, copying from HFS+ (journalled) to NTFS is not fun, and the entire transfer went...
This is a rather unfortunate situation and is far from ideal, but I don't have control over the circumstances exactly.
A client gave me a 500GB external hard drive that was supposedly 'broken.' I...
This isn't exactly an Ubuntu-specific quesiton, but I figured the people here might be able to answer this... or at least confirm this glitch.
I've gotten used to using GNU Screen when SSHed into...
I'm having major problems with the A6-3420M APU. It has a Radeon HD 6520G chipset built in. This laptop also has a discrete graphics card but it has been disabled in BIOS, it would only cause further...
I'm still having issues with this laptop on 12.10, but try the "nomodeset" option if you get a purple screen.
Hold shift while booting, select "e", find the "quiet splash" et al., line of the boot...
I'd been using Ubuntu 10.10 on my IdeaPad Z575 since I obtained it last March, and with a fair amount of hacking I got fglrx and my wireless working. Suspend worked out of the box.
Recently, I...
HOW does your suspend/hibernate work?
In a jealous way I find that mildly irritating.
I just installed 12.04.1 LTS on my Z575, nearly identical hardware, and the screen is unresponsive after...
Same problem, would appreciate some assistance in troubleshooting this. I've seen this is a widespread problem across many laptops with the newer kernels, and I haven't seen a single solution so far....
Alright, well I'm glad it seemed to work out for you. You mentioned that 3D didn't work and you hadn't installed proprietary drivers; while this may work, I recommend you do install AMD's drivers or...
zaphod_es: If you're having other specific issues it may be more beneficial to open a separate thread; however, for the purpose of answering your initial question, yes the processor you linked to is...
I have the same problem on my A6-3420M. Though when I use the frequency scaling applet in GNOME, the CPU also only goes up to 1.5 GHz. How can this be fixed?
I also would appreciate the ability to do this. I'm running 10.10, I already tried using gconf-editor to change suspend_ac_mode (or something similar) to hibernate, which allows the "Suspend"...
This is extremely frustrating, I have the same problem, whenever Skype is opened the mic disables until a reboot.
right, it's true that the GPU *worked* without extra drivers, except the discrete (power-hungry) one was used by default, and 3D acceleration didn't work, so it was basically a more power-consuming...
thanks for the input - glad to hear it worked well, especially with less steps.
I figured the guide could be both expanded upon and simplified in various ways, good to know that that worked for...
Thanks for a helpful guide.
I meant to also add that while computers connected with a true "wireless" connection will very rarely work with WOL, if you want a desktop that is too far away to be...
Well I think I've finally found a way for AMD Hybrid Graphics users to be able to use either GPU on their machines running Ubuntu with AMD's proprietary fglrx driver (+ Catalyst 12.2).
The purpose...
I've heard of EasyMP and am familiar with it, however I never noticed that they had a client for Linux. Were you running the client in WINE? (With what version/configuration?)
Sorry I most likely...
Also, the guide is still somewhat disorganized, but I figured I'd correct a bit of it in a new post as I just redid the whole process. (I had to reformat for a different reason and was glad I...
Thanks for trying to help, I really appreciate it. I would consider underclocking the card for power consumption purposes, or maybe undervolting it, but my proprietary BIOS wouldn't allow it, and...
I would really appreciate any help here; I need as much as I can get. I have been searching the Web for answers about Hybrid Graphics on AMD APUs, with Linux, and have found absolutely no solution....
