Ubuntu :: Getting Screen Full Of Readout Most Pertinent
Jun 30, 2011
just done a update and something drastic has gone wrong i think the video card driver has been messed up as when i try to boot i get as far as the purple ubuntu screen with the 5 dots, but then nothing if i press a key i get a screen full of readout the most pertinent, i think, is
gnome desktop manager.........[fail]
and also something like
gdn recovery ......[fail]
i assumed that i could reinstall driver while booting from live cd, but this hasn't worked

This obnoxious bar has just appeared in Smplayer at the top of the screen. It stays there even when I go full screen. Now full screen isn't full screen and there are black edges on both sides of the screen. I have not be able to figure out how to hide it. I do not need or want this onscreen display. How can I configure Smplayer to make this go away? How can I get my 16:9 full screen aspect ratio back? I have done nothing to mplayer or smplayer as far as editing any or changing any configuration files. I tried several videos and it displays on all of them. It was not there last time I used Smplayer.

In Ubuntu 9.04 and 9.10, KTorrent worked just fine for me. However, this time whenever I launch it, it is for some reason full screen and I have no idea how to get out of full screen.it's of the entire screen when KTorrent is in focus (so no panels or other things were cut out of the image).URL...

when one core is high, the other is low. It's almost an exact mirror effect right in the middle of the graph. What's up with this?

I cloned one of my hard drives to another, using Acronis True Image Home 2011.In the process, of course, fstab got copied verbatim from old to new.I then, using a livecd on a flash drive, mounted the new drive, went into fstab and rewrote the UUID's, using the numbers I'd gotten previously by doing sudo blkid.Now, the new drive had the UUID's revealed by that command.Then, I used boot-repair, from yannubuntu, to make that drive bootable, since it wasn't after the cloning and after the fstab rewrite.The drive is bootable, and it's mountable from a flash drive, or from the old drive.
I can access files either way.the fstab file on the new drive still has the old numbers, yet when I ran boot-repair, it apparently changed the UUID's for sectors 1 and 5 on the new drive.fstab seems to be irrelevant at this point, yet everything I read about it indicates that it is not only relevant, but necessary.I don't understand how I can be accessing the drive when the fstab contains UUID's that are no longer pertinent to any hardware on my system.

I recently upgraded my graphics card from a Geforce 7600GS to a Gefore 560Ti. And while most things are normal, during boot up my screen isn't "full screen" until X is started, after which everything else is fine. Essentially, all display, the grub menu, the splash screen, console text, etc, is within a box on the screen, with 2" on the left and right, and 1" top and bottom of empty blackness.
From what I understand, this is because the framebuffer is using the wrong resolution, but the maximum resolution that hwinfo --framebuffer returns is 1280x1024 (which I am already using "0x031a".) (My monitors is natively 1920x1080) Is it possible to do something about this? If not increase resolution than at least stretch the screen to full screen?
sudo /usr/sbin/hwinfo --framebuffer
02: None 00.0: 11001 VESA Framebuffer
[Created at bios.459]
Unique ID: rdCR.GGyCBArXznD
Hardware Class: framebuffer
Model: "NVIDIA GF104B Board - 10400050"

OpenSuse 11.3 with nVidia drivers.I have the screen working fine though it only runs in 1600x1200@75 using the nVidia driver (GTX260 card).When I play a game in full screen mode all seems OK but when I exit the game then I just get the mouse pointer on a black screen.There must be something present since the cursor changes as I move it, normal pointer -> hand over a link etc. It's just that black on black isn't very readable.

In my corporate environment, I'm required to run a Windows machine that acquires a VNC session on a machine in the server farm. My windows machine is dual head with different resolution monitors ( 1600x1080 on left and 1920x1200 on right). If I create a VNC session that spans the monitors, then maximizing a window in the VNC session causes it to stretch across both my monitors.
Instead, I want a "maximize" event to behave like it does on my windows machine -- I only want to maximize to the display that the window is on.
How can I define what, what I'll call, "maximize regions"? Regions in the VNC graphical plane where when I click "maximize", the window only expands to the region it currently ( and mostly) resides in.
Can I do this in gnome, X, xrandr, or some other magical interface?

I've started to have problems getting some streaming videos to either go full screen or go full screen properly.
On [url] when I want to watch a South Park episode full screen it pops up a little box that says "Error Full Screen Not Allowed" and if I hover my mouse over the video connection icon is says
"current video stream 750 kbps* Max video stream 800kbps Avalible in HDGo to Fullscreen *limited by this computer"
The current avaible bandwith speed averages 2500kbps and I have a 7000kbps connection with Speedboost.
When I use Windows XP I can go to full screen with South Park Videos, only in Ubuntu can I not go full screen.
With Hulu it will go into full screen but not always the porpper way. Sometimes it will go full screen but other times it will go full screen but I have to minimize the browser window and then maximize it again and the video will play full screen but apear to be playing on the desktop as wallpaper. I don't get this problem in XP.
This seems to have just started after the last time I did a recomended automatic secuirity update with updae maager. My Video Card is a ATI Radeon 9000 at 1280x1024 true color.

Whenever I try to run something that goes full-screen, the display crashes (a bunch of random vertical colored lines) and the only thing I can do it press the power button and reboot. Anything I can do to fix that? (I know my profile says 8.10 Intrepid; I'm working on a friend's comp, which has 9.10 Karmic.)

Ive installed Lucid in my vaio. The vga is 4350 ATi.
The videos and games have two black stripes at the monitors edges this is due to Widescreen monitor.
At windows you can go at catalyst control center and in monitor configuration has the option for scaling so i can configured my vga to play the videos and the games at full screen with out any black gaps (right-left)

Recently upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 64 bit. Update went fine with the exception I cannot get full screen with my programs such as firefox, open office, picasa, or any other program I open. Cannot drag the window open to full screen. Changed the nvidia driver from Preferred to the nvidia 173 driver in system, administration , hardware drivers. Neither seem to workto get full screen. Hit F11 and that does not work either.
Here is my system:

INTEL |CORE I7 860 2.8 G
SEAGATE 7K ST3100052

The disk on this machine was full (0 bytes available). I rebooted and now it just goes to a blank screen. I thought I might need to free up some space for something, so I booted to a live cd and freed up some space. Still boots to a blank black screen.

I've seen a number of post for this, but none work, does anyone know of a fix. Whenever a streaming flash video (you tube etc) is toggled to full screen the picture freezes. The sound doesn't. It's not a driver issue as video from DVD works fine

I've got Ubuntu 10.10 Server installed in a VirtualBox. I'm stuck in 640x480 screen resolution when I put VirtualBox in full-screen mode.
How can I change the startup resolution on Ubuntu so say, 1152x864 and make it stick upon reboot?
I found a thread here on the forums a while ago but I cannot find it anymore...

I'm using UNE 10.10. When I connect to a windows pc in full screen mode using grdesktop I can get out of full screen mode fine by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Enter but when I do so grdesktop/rdesktop does not appear in the list of running applications and there's no apparent way to get back to my RDC. The rdesktop process is still running as seen by the ps command. How do I go about getting the window back? Could Unity be the problem??
