You cant even access the web side, you get a message saying:
OpenID failed

I have KXstudio 64 installed, was changing the clock font and doing little, normal tweaks to the panel, pulled the edge in a little, and it just froze right there, and now the whole desktop is broken, unresponsive. Nothing works. I have yaquake terminal installed so i can access a terminal by hitting F12, and open applications that way, but no menu's, links, widgets, panel icons or anything are working at all, after rebooting, logging in as other user, nothing helps. I tried a apt-get install kdm or something like that, it didnt help tho.If the easiest thing to do is ditch the stupid buggy KDE desktop and switch to GNOME- then i'd prefer that.even while using the terminal, or applications opened thru it, it freezes periodically and i sit for a few minutes and it comes back. still no desktop tho.

Stat tells me that none of the relevant files have been accessed when I plug in a USB device that udevadm says was processed and which clearly matched the rules.. I reboot with several USB devices plugged in and according to stat nothing anywhere in /etc/udev was accessed during the boot process.

Notably, the object browser and package manager do not work, and the function hinting (pop up window showing arguments accepted by a function) dont work either.> JGR :: package.manager()
Error in JGR :: package.manager : package 'JGR' has no name space and is not on the search path

As far as I can tell, this occured on upgrade to 9.10. I've tried using different Java environments, but no real success. I wonder if I should just go for a removal and reinstall of R and JGR?
I have a broken dependency. The package is libsdl-image-1.2-dev. When I try to fix it via synaptic, it says E: libsdl-image1.2-dev: cannot remove `/.' What can I do?

It gives me this error report code...
I have had one headache after another, first the updates break the bootstrap loader, this is a known issue yet they still continue to release grub updates that effect this and break the boot sequence. I am very surprised that this is done. so onto the next issue, they say use a CD to boot from and move the files for grub2 over, well that has been a nightmare taking two days to only find it deleted my initial Linux install, so wasted days, no real back up for the entire system and lost emails etc. The CDs lock up on boot, they do not load from the CDs and the instructions for fix grub are very lacking.
I would have thought a windoz based solution would have been offered so that this was more easy to do. This boot from a Live CD does not work and the CD downloads are not working either (using them to load via windoz again, but have lost months of work AGAIN). If an update is known to break the bootstrap loader, why on earth would you release updates that continuously break it?? Just ranting as support seems lacking....seems like you are on track to performing like windoz well... I am not impressed in the least given I work in the Open Source Community and havve done so for years..
Just when I thought I was getting my Ubuntu 10.04 system stabilized and really usable, the webcam magically stopped working. When I first installed 10.04, the webcam worked perfectly right out of the box. Tonight, I tried to start the video in a Skype conversation, and nothing. Video preferences in Skype showed no options for a camera. Rebooting the machine didn't help.
The one relevant thing I can think of that happened between the last time it worked and tonight is installing a number of updates. I'm not sure how to look up which packages were installed when -- I'm happy to run commands if someone can provide them.
Unfortunately, I don't remember how it was configured before. Since it was working, I didn't look at /dev to see where the camera shows up. At the moment, there is no /dev/video*. Clearly the system doesn't recognize that the camera is there, but it did before.. I don't recall device specifics. I looked online for a spec sheet that would say who is the webcam manufacturer, but I can only find the resolution. Tomorrow I have to boot into Windows to do some other work and I can get hardware info then.The machine is an MSI A6200 220US; the specs seem not to be available on MSI's website anymore.
Gnome has decided to break on me.
When I log in there are no panels, no menus and lots of other things have gone awry.
Fail-safe is fine.
I have read lots of articles, deleted various .gconf files, problem remains...

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem. You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest. how can I fix it?

I was having a problem with a fresh 11.04 install and the VPN software I use for work. I found the fix was to upgrade the software, so I downloaded an RPM, converted it to .deb and installed it via dpkg. The install worked and the VPN software now works, but Package Manager says I have a broken package and wants to 'upgrade' to the older broken one. How can I fix this without breaking my VPN SW again?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have only Ubuntu 6.06 LTS installed on my pc. previously I had Win XP AND linux on my pc(dual boot).
Question is: how can I start from scratch i.e. completely delete Ubuntu is the first step. however, I do not know how to.
Additional problem is that it asks for GRUB and I have to insert the Windows (?) disk and it starts working again. Why does Ubuntu need XP disk is beyond me.

I have come across an issue when cloning an SD card.I have a SheevaPlug, which is a low power ARM based computer. I used an Intel based HP laptop running Ubuntu 9.04 to clone the 4GB SD card of the SheevaPlug. The card contains 2 partitions: the boot image, and the root filesystem. I did this using dd directly from one 4GB card to a second 4GB card (sudo dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sdc), and also by dumping the first card to an image file and then from the image file to the second card.
The process worked successfully in that the SheevaPlug seems to run fine off the cloned card, but here�s the strange thing: when I use Gparted to examine the original card, it shows it has 2 partitions. However, when I do the same with the cloned card, Gparted detects no partitions at all. Ubuntu seems to mount the partitions fine as well. Anyone have any idea what might be happening? I thought DD was supposed to perform a bit-for-bit copy of the whole device given the parameters I used, and that Gparted should therefore show identical results no matter which card it was looking at
I have tried remove from ubuntu software center and Synaptic Package Manager, but when I reinstall Gwibber, it directly load from software list, and not download from internet.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI use Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope). I recently installed four themes, Mac4Lin, Tigris, Raptor Slickness remix and SlicknesS. I dragged them into the Appearance Preferences window to install them (in the Themes tab). I didn't like the themes and uninstalled them. But, while I was customising the original theme (Human), I saw that window controls and borders of the theme were not uninstalled (1st attachment). Also, if I want to reinstall the themes, I get an error (2nd attachment). I have checked if any folders named after these themes were there in "/usr/share/themes", but didn't find any. How am I to uninstall these themes completely?

View 9 Replies View RelatedSo after a quick look around the forums, I haven't seen anything on removing ndiswrapper. What I have done is removed ndiswrapper via synaptic. Now in order to start my wireless card I have to issue:
rmmod ndiswrapper
modprobe ath9k
ifconfig wlan0 up
Basically this is a pain. Does anyone know how to get rid of ndiswrapper completely and set things up to use ath9k automatically?
