View 2 RepliesI am trying to use Skype beta on my acer aspire one with ubuntu 10.10. The video runs brilliantly and i can also here my wife from the other end but she cannot hear me. Apparently something is fishy with my mic input. I tried alsamixer and everything is in unmute. My alsa version is 1.0.23. The only think she hears is a loud hissing noise which is normally my bat voice but she doesnt need to know that. I can record my voice in the sound recorder but nothing comes out in Skype!
View 6 Replies View RelatedSo here's the schedule for 10.04:
April 8th, 2010 - Beta 2 release;
April 22nd, 2010 - Release Candidate;
April 29th, 2010 - Final release of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
If I have 10.04 beta 1, could I just continue to update and not have to burn another disk to install? Or do I have to burn the beta 2 and reinstall if I want it?
My update manager still says "updated 3 days ago" and no updates have come through today. Does anyone know if NBR has been automatically updated TODAY from Beta 1?

I can set the desktop background; however, when I switch from one workspace to another, the background disappears from all workspaces! I have six workspaces, and clicking on anyone of them makes the background disappear.
I'm in Gnome running Compiz, and every time i go into the wallpaper changer to switch my backgroung, within 30-45 seconds of me changing it, it changes back to some white washed out version of one of the default wallpapers.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI set openbox wallpaper with:
Code:
feh --bg-scale ~/Pictures/image.jpg &
In ~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh last line.
But some kind of KDE stuff overrides it and sets default again after few seconds. I can override it again with manual command. How can I set wallpaper then in openbox in proper way?
I'm just wondering, is there anyway to make the background a video. And if this is possible, how can it be done, and does the video have to be a specific format.

I decided to give Fedora a try and wiped my Ubuntu partition and installed Fedora. Everythings all good...except the reconfiguration of grub has left out my Windows 7 partition (nothing out of the norm) I tried manually adding windows 7 to /boot/grub/menu.lst but it's not working, when I try to boot into Windows 7 i get a little flashing "_" for a really long time and nothing happens.

View 8 Replies View RelatedThe problem is after I change wallpaper, logout and log back in the wallpaper reverts back to the previous wallpaper. Here's what I did from fc10 64-bit:
From System->Preferences->Look And Feel->Appearance choose Background tab.
Frolm Background tab click Add button and browse for the .jpg in ~/Wallpaper
Now wallpaper changes but doesn't persist on logout. Could a folders or config file have the wrong permissions?
I downloaded a really nice wallpaper and stuck it on my desktop. However, not all of it is showing. Some of it is hidden by my panel. How do I get it to show all, yet still leave the panel untouched?

After have installed F13kde on 3 different machines, I was wondering why I dont get changing background wallpaper by simple clicking on opened image, for example using browser (firefox). I'm able to change it *manually* using DesktopActivitySetting and only after have downloaded single image

The Avant Window Navigator beta, as taken from the project's Bazaar repository, isn't configuring correctly on my machine and gave me loads of errors previous to this point, so I've had my hands full for a while now. Three packages that AWN needs to compile (gnome-desktop-devel, gnome-vfs-devel and libgnome-devel) are refusing to install, leaving me with this Quote: checking for AWN... configure: error: Package requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.8.0 gthread-2.0 gobject-2.0 gtk+-2.0 gdk-2.0 >= 2.10 dbus-glib-1 gnome-desktop-2.0 libgnome-2.0 gnome-vfs-module-2.0 gconf-2.0) were not met: No package 'gnome-desktop-2.0' found No package 'libgnome-2.0' found No package 'gnome-vfs-module-2.0' found.
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables AWN_CFLAGS and AWN_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. and this is why they won't install Quote:hal = 0.5.13-9.fc12 is needed by package hal-devel-0.5.13-9.fc12.x86_64 (fedora) I need an old version of HAL for the "dependency resolution failed" notices to go away. One which PackageKit says is still on my computer. I would try to downgrade via yum but setenforce 0 fails. What do I need to do to get this whole thing finished?
Applied several updates last night including a 2.6.30.5-43 kernel and a suggest kmod-nvidia but the 5-43 kernel boots to a wallpaper gnome screen the first time.
Booted to the "fallback" 2.6.29....17 kernel and it worked fine.
Then 2.6.30.5.-43 also booted but without nvidia.
Installing akmod-nvidia as sugggested in other posts. Also see a kmod for this kernel.
Ever since upgrading from F11 to F13, wallpaper spanning has been driving me nuts. No matter what the size of the wallpaper, I cannot get it to span two desktops correctly anymore. Most styles (zoom, scale, etc...) cause the image to be duplicated on both screens and the "span" style centers the image between the screens and appears to scale down the image leaving large gaps on either side. It's like the background program doesn't recognize the "virtual resolution".
View 8 Replies View RelatedI already posted on the compiz community forums but I figure more eyes are better than less. I hope the "software" forum is the right place to post, I don't believe I'm having any hardware issues.What I'm seeing is strange desktop corruption/stretching when compiz starts, almost as if compiz thinks my desktop is about four time wider (horizontal) than it really is and this makes nautilus go a bit crazy. All other compiz functionality seems fine. Before compiz starts (with metacity or openbox), the desktop (nautilus) appears normal. I've tried both settings for show_desktop in gconf and they both result in the same (bad) effect. If I use a gradient as my background instead of an image, I see that the gradient is also wrong in the same way (wider than it should be).
Attached are two screen shots: streched-small.jpeg is my desktop with compiz and normal-small.jpeg is the same desktop after running "metacity --replace".I have a dual head setup with an ATI X18000 running two identical monitors, both at 1280x1024. This problem does NOT happen if I disable one of the display or clone them nor does it happen if I place one monitor on top of the other. The problem only occurs in dual head mode and only if the monitors are logically positioned side by side, horizontally.I don't think it factors in but it's worth mentioning I'm doing this with an LTSP 5 thin client configuration. My thin client just happens to be a PC with an X1800 at the moment.
I use 4 virtual desktops and under Fedora 8 and KDE was able for each to have a unique wallpaper. Since installing Fedora 12 and KDE I can't seem to find a way to get that feature. I can name each virtual desktop but not set individual wallpaper. I've searched the documents for both KDE and Fedora, they say how to set the wallpaper but not for individual desktops.
