Ubuntu :: No Boot Up - Screen Not Showing Solid Picture

Mar 17, 2010

I was trying to fix my audio driver so that my speakers would work after installing Linux Mint 8. I rebooted it to see if it worked but the computer won't boot up. It gets past the toshiba screen and the mint logo shows up like normal, but then I get what I think is an error message. I can't be sure though because the screen is not showing a solid picture. If I hit escape, I get another similar screen. If I hit escape again the screen goes blank and I can no longer get it to do anything. I'm new to Linux and not much of a computer wiz.

Ubuntu :: Monitor Off Center - Bottom Of Tool-bar On The Bottom Of The Screen Is Cut Off

May 22, 2010

So about an hour ago I put my computer on standby. For whatever reason I couldn't bring it back so I restarted it. It works fine except now Ubuntu has pushed my display down. This means that the bottom of my tool-bar on the bottom of the screen is cut off, and there's a black bar on the top. I'm using a T.V. screen so there is no way I can manually adjust it. I also plugged my desktop back into an old monitor and it was off-center downward too.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Faulty Or No DVD Playback - Slightly Shaky And A Little Static At The Top And Bottom Of The Picture

Jan 2, 2011

Using Ubuntu Maverick and Totem, DVD playback has a slightly shaky picture and a little static at the top and bottom of the picture. Also, top level menus sometimes don't display, or the menu displays but movie won't play, or just nothing happens when trying to play a DVD movie. This problem is happening on two completely different boxes with clean installs. DVD playback seemed OK on Kubuntu and Xubuntu 10.10, as was OK on 10.04. Is this a known issue? And if so, is there a patch?

Red Hat / Fedora :: Change The OS Boot Screen From The Blue Loading Bar At The Bottom?

Jun 1, 2011

there is a way to change the OS boot screen from the blue loading bar at the bottom to something more fancy. For example if you take a look at Oracle Enterprise Linux 6 they have a loading screen that makes an "O" on start up. Note: I am not talking about GRUB, I already know how to change the grub boot screen. If so can someone provide the steps needed to modify the OS loading screen.

Ubuntu Installation :: 10.10 Hangs At /scripts/init-bottom During Boot?

Aug 25, 2011

I have a Lenovo TP W520 with a Nvidia Quadro 2000M (with support for Optimus)!I've tried to use the open-source optimus driver (Bumblebee), but found to many issues I had to deal with.both on 11.04 and 10.10) - therefore I've accepted the lesser batterytime... and choosed to run with "discrete" option in BIOS - setting Nvidia only mode!I can't use the 11.04, as I need iFolder (and can't get it to work with this edition, by the way I see the following problems on 11.04 too) - as a result I am using 10.10 (64-bit).

I have installed the Nvidia proprietary driver, and when attached to my dockingstation (connected to an switchbox) the laptop boots fine every time! But out of the dock, the laptop hangs at "running /scripts/init-bottom" during boot!To resolve this I've tried this (used the "nomodeset" option)... after this, it pass the "running..." every 4-5 timeAfter this I tried to upgrade the driver as described here... this may have helped - a tinytiny bitLast effort was to add "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint (MatchIsPointer "on")" and "AT Translated Set 2 keyboard (MatchIsKeyboard "on")" to "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf" according to this ... now it boot's fine every time... but at login, the login-box disappears and everything freezes! But if I choose "Safe Mode" i can login.

Ubuntu :: 10.10 - Change The Name Of The Login Screen Picture?

Oct 26, 2010

Today I decided to customise my Ubuntu by installing my own picture over the default picture used in the log-in screen. I did a search and found it (in /usr/share/backgrounds). I looked into it a bit and found that the image was a .jpg with the name changed to a .png extension. I though I copied the title of it but must have hit the wrong button.

I put my picture in the folder. I then copied the name of the file, then deleted it. I went to paste the name over my new picture, and then found that I had hit the wrong button to copy it. When I delete things I usually hold shift to perma-delete it, so it isn't in the bin. Oh btw, I did this before in 10.04 and it worked in case anyone wants to do the same. It just needs to be a .jpg file, renamed to end with .png

Ubuntu :: No Picture On Laptop Screen, Only On External Monitor?

Jul 3, 2010

The laptop is a samsung X30 and i spent days trying to install ubuntu 10.04 unsuccesfully as there was no clear picture on the screen, just a black and purple splodge. I then saw a post on these forums discussing the default resolution of ubuntu and how it is incompatible with some machines so via VGA cable i connected it to my TV and sure enough i could see what was going on and finished the installation process. I assumed that once ubuntu was fully installed i would be able to change the resolution using the monitor preferences but none of them worked. I am now faced with the problem that unless plugged into the TV i have no picture on my laptop, does anyone know why my laptop screen wont work with ubuntu and how

Using UNR10.04 and have an issue where menu screens are hanging off the bottom of the screen. Happens pretty regularly, but for example, a moment ago, I was trying to switch to Google Public DNS, in the network preferences, have to click apply/ok but cannot do so as the menu box is larger than the screen. Is there a way to scroll down or make the window smaller so that I can click buttons outside standard screen.

Ubuntu :: Move Bar On Bottom Side Of Screen

Mar 17, 2011

he is used to the regular netbook edition before the unity-style. The small netbookscreen is just not good for this new appbar on the left side (it's one of the old eee-pc's). None of us like that solution, and I wonder if its possible to move the bar on the bottom side of the screen so it will be a bit more Windows 7-ish?
