Hello,

brand new ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS install.


I have a mce remote and IR receiver. I do not have anything from lirc installed. After installing ir-keytable, if I do a sudo ir-keytable -t, and...

Thank you so much for writing this how-to! I was following the instructions over on fedora forums and couldn't get them to work. I followed these, and my adapter came right up!

Thanks again!

Thanks SO much for this edit! I, too, was having this exact problem (couldn't do a raid install onto ubuntu 10.10), and I couldn't mark any of the partitions bootable.

Manually putting in a 1MB...

I hadn't, but I just tried it now. Nope, nada; even though the process is running no window appears to switch to when I hit alt-tab.

(Tried it on all four virtual desktops, just to be safe.)

Anyone know how to reset gnome's defaults regarding which virtual desktop a new window launches in?



Here's what happened... I use wine to run the xnews newsreader. For some reason I right...

Ahhhhh, now that makes a lot more sense.

Sounds like X (-windows) is selecting a video mode that your monitor isn't happy with, or just can't configure your video card correctly for whatever...

I can't even start to make heads or tails of this reply. What frequency problem? We can't read your mind, nor your computer's mind. cli? Don't shorten things, write them out. (Again with the...

Upon further investigation, that smb.conf above just turns on guest access for the share. That wasn't what I wanted (and was read-only), so I had to dig in further.

Turns out that the root issue...

FWIW, I was doing that just to show that this wasn't a network connectivity problem. (I know it doesn't make any logical sense to do it, but was more of a functional test.)



That worked! ...

Oh, and just for giggles, this fails, too:



vince@Mythtery:~$ sudo mount -t cifs //127.0.0.1/mythtv /home/vince/tmpmount -o username=vince,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777

Took the plunge last night and upgraded my Jaunty backend server to Karmic. And now samba doesn't work at all!

I had a share points set up under jaunty, and was happily connecting to it via...

It's almost like we're not using the same program. I don't know what version of tweak you're using (I'm using 0.4.9.2, which is apparently the latest) but I have absolutely nothing even close to...

You're missing the point. That option doesn't even sound like it should do what you're saying it does. I don't have blank screen selected as my screensaver. I shut screensavers off completely. ...

Where in ubuntu tweak do you see any options that refer to this? I have tweak installed under Karmic, and the only relevant options are under system-> power management, then I have "enable lock...

So GO LOOK:



vince@Toshtop:~$ cd /proc/acpi/thermal_zone
vince@Toshtop:/proc/acpi/thermal_zone$ ls
THRM


So, my directory is THRM (in caps).

Update: Solved, almost.

I don't have any idea why it's not a default, but I had to add p4-clockmod to my modules as detailed in this post from three years ago.


Well, I'm halfway there. Now...

I am having an identical problem with my Toshiba L305 laptop. The CPU frequency monitor complains that frequency scaling is unsupported.

Not sure what logs would be helpful, but happy to provide...

OK... where did you upload these? (And how do we get them?)

Nevermind, found 'em...

How do I get jaunty to automatically shut down when my UPS is depleted?

I bought a Cyberpower UPS with USB port the other day. I plugged it in, charged it, DIDN'T plug the jaunty machine into it...

My purpose for setting up RAID was to be able to keep going (with a reboot) upon a single drive failure. If you move your boot and OS to a separate drive, you still have the situation where the...

Booting off of a mirrored array works just fine. I even yanked one of the drive's cables and was able to boot the system after acknowledging it was running in degraded mode (as intended!).

Only...

I guess... The only thing that causes me to question that is I shouldn't be able to write to a filesystem if it isn't all there yet. But right from the first boot I can mount that partition and...

Of course, not ten minutes after I write all that, it knocks it off! I guess the first thing the system does after building a raid array is resyncs it for three hours???

I guess; I wouldn't think...

I'm new to RAID, so apologies in advance if this question is all naff, but here goes. I have four 1T hard drives. I'm using the alternate setup disc for 9.0 alpha 6, i386.

I set up one 10G...

HELP!

I had a fairly stable hardy system. But there was one thing that was wrong, in that every time I would power it down I needed to blank the BIOS settings for it to reboot. So today I...
