View 2 RepliesI downloaded the latest version of DirectX and installed it through Wine. It seemed to work, but whenever I try to play Akane's new Death Note game, it says 'Failed to initialize DirectX Audio' and closes the window. How can I fix this problem? I need my fan service!

I have noticed that the 40GB drive has got quite a few bad sectors appearing on it, so it looks like it's going to give up the ghost soon.I have decided to do away with the 40GB drive and Win 2K because I never use it, the question is if I just remove the drive what are the consequences if I do that? Apart from still seeing Windows 2000 in the bootup list. I've never tried this hence the reason for the question

View 8 Replies View RelatedI made the MOST basic of errors. I had ubuntu 9 installed on a partition of my netbook HD that was primarily running w7. I was running out of disk space and decided to remove the ubuntu partition as a short term measure - however I didn't change any of my GRUB settings so now I can boot into anything...
In only get a GRUB RESCUE> prompt on trying to boot. From searching the internet I've come to the conclusion that my MBR is F%^ked and need to restore it. I've downloaded ubuntu 10 and can run it from a mem stick, but I cannot get the ms-sys package to install - I keep getting the following error.
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install ms-sys
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Couldn't find package ms-sys
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$
Is there another way of removing GRUB completely? Or is there something else that I can try to successfully install ms-sys?
when i use the terminal, and i run "sudo apt-get update", there is a notification which says, "407 proxy authentication required". i use the internet of our school which requires its users to log into its proxy server so that the user can have access to the internet. the problem is i cannot run update or install commands through the terminal, though i can connect to the internet through firefox.

I already use my password to log on on and this nre request is becoming a dammed nuisance. Can someone tell me how to stop it from happening. I can't even go for a leak without having to reenter my password.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI've built several computers and installed Ubuntu on each one, and I've never had problems until my latest build. Here are the problems:The computer requires acpi=off to boot, and it won't boot with acpi=ht. I've searched for this, and there's a widely reproduced acpi troubleshooting guide that says that this means that there's something wrong with the acpi tables themselves, but I haven't found any fixes.If I go ahead and use acpi=off, then the computer works fine, but it hangs on shutdown. I've searched for this too, and the consensus seems to be to remove acpi=off from the boot options. This, of course, is not an option for me.

/boot -- as a separate partition (do I really need a separate boot)
swap my RAM is 768mg so 1 gig should be good

View 9 Replies View RelatedI just started using the Ubuntu One Music Store from within Rhythmbox and all was going well until I tried to play a music video. (Search for Daft Punk. Scroll to Videos. Click 'Around the World' and attempt to play.)
Then I got a stupid error message saying:
"Internet connection is required to access the music store. Please connect and reload."
I could not get rid of this error message by restarting Rhythmbox. I had to unload the Ubuntu One Music Store plugin, and then restart Rhythmbox.

View 9 Replies View RelatedJust a random question out of curiosity and probably ignorance. But why have updates started requiring a reboot almost every single time recently? I'm using Lucid, but the rate of required reboots was already on the up in Jaunty. As far as I understood, you should only really need to reboot if something's been changed in the Kernel - is that wrong?
Surely the updates can include restarting of demons or just the software if need be, it's starting to become like windows in this respect....
