I recently reinstalled ubuntu (switched from x64 to x86) but kept the /home partition. Ever since, the notification bubble keeps showing misplaced as in the attached picture. I tried reinstalling the notify-osd package but to no avail. I looked around and found that you cannot customize anything about this bubble.
Ok, I don't want to customize it. I want to fix it. How can I do that please?
i am using the latest version of Debian Squeeze. everything is up to date but the pidgin program doesn't display the notification icons in the top right corner like it's supposed to, whats the problem here because i don't like to manually check to see who has logged and who has logged off.
The notification area in the panel comes up each time I boot with Irl as the geographical location. If I click this it changes to GBr (which is correct). Is there any way of stopping the Irl display, or at least make GBr the default at boot time?
Seriously, after a reboot, my gnome panel shows a notification area applet, but there are no status icons displayed. Normally I findwicd, hplip, volume, evolution, battery, etc after a cold boot.These did not show this time. I cannot find log entries that showtroubles with the notifier icon applets ... then I'm not sure what I would look for or where to look.I tried to remove the notification-area item from the panel and then reload it. This did not change anything.
I am converting a lot of videos through FFMPEG using X264 and AAC as the codecs. Some videos have mono sound, some have 2 channels, and some have 5.1. I compiled FFMPEG from source so the codecs are installed correctly but I keep getting an error with 5.1 sound. After the conversion the video plays the sound that should come from the center speak through the right. I tried libfaac and the experimental aac codec inside FFMPEG and both give me the same error.
I FINALLY convinced my wife to try Ubuntu on her laptop. We selected Install 10.4 side-by-side with XP. The grub menu shows up, but Windows is not listed. She's happy with Ubuntu so far, but I'd like to know why I can't use XP anymore. btw, I actually made the mistake of using the import accounts option, which filled up the new partition and made Ubuntu unbootable. I deleted some things from the command prompt, and it's running fine now.HP Pavilion1.5 GHz512MB Ram
Right now, I need to use a dual-monitor setup. Be it for my casual desktop usage, or to my projects and programs presentations with a slideshow. The latter is critical and that's why I'm here.So, after some Intel Drivers update, some programs started to work nicely, faster and beautifully. But it corrupted my Dual-Monitor Setup. I don't know what to say, I'm totally desperate. I had to show one of my programs to my teacher using a projector, but with the dual monitor corruption, I called in sick today. I need to use the netbook screen to make changes on the program and the second monitor/projector to show the program working.
I'll show some pictures, but I'm without a camera right now, so I'll use one china-phone that's hanging around here to take a picture. Sorry for the quality. Both Monitors, you can see on the right of the bigger one the corruption I'm talking about.
There was 11.2/pulseaudio. Everything worked fine. After some software update channels became misplaced (system considered side channels as a front), pulseaudio stopped working at all and was removed. After upgrade to 11.3 mics stopped working. Current state:
I like Empathy, but when I quit the program the chat-bubble in the top-right corner (on the indicator/logout applet) stays. Is this a bug, or is there a way to fix this?
I like the bubble notifications when someone sends me a message.. but they're so slow. If someone sends me a lot of messages in one minute, they'll take a few minutes for a bubble with each message to popup.. and there's no way to close it and tell it to shut up..Is there anything I can do about this?
Yesterday while me and my friend were in the train, we tried to set up a wireless network and play frozen bubble. So one of us makes a new wireless connection, the other connects to it, but we observed this: When the creator of the wifi network opens the game and tries to start the multiplayer, it says that it cannot connect to the server. On the other computer there is no problem with it. We tried to change the host of the connection, but the result was the same (the host computer couldn't connect to the "server")
when I activate caffeine with ubuntu 10.10 it stops all bubble notifications.Like for example I use radiotray and listen to it for a good length of time and when it changes stations or songs a bubble notification comes up. Lets say if I have caffeine activated to disable screensaver it stops all notifications but as soon as I disable it, it stops.
How can i hide the bubble with username in the upper bar, right hand? It is linked to the shutdown icon but i want to keep that icon but hide the bubble with the name of the user.
I was searching but i didn't find anything, only how to hide all the mini-applet session (shutdown icon included).
I want to disable bubble notifications for new emails (but I still want indicator applet to change color when email arrives). Those notifications distracts me a lot, so I want remove them.
Is it possible? I was only able to disable the evolution notification at all, but that is not exactly what I want.
I've got a strange problem: when I run Frozen Bubble from my user account, I get no sound, but the same game has sound with my wife's account and the root account.
EDITED TO ADD: My user account has sound for DVDs through Kaffeine, Mplayer, etc. And the system sounds are working just find.
A recent kernel update seems to have misplaced the Kernel Headers. VMWare needs these headers and cannot find them. Attempting to run VMWARE gets the message: Kernel headers for version 2.6.31.12-0.2-desktop were not found.
I'm a bit of a nube with Linux. Have had it installed and Acer Veriton for a while but after last yum update it now hangs on the blue screen with the F bubble in the middle. I can login remotely OK but am not sure what to look for. It seems to be something X11 related but I'm not sure. I would post the relevant logs but am not sure which ones are associated with this problem.
Just upgraded to 11.4 this afternoon. All went smoothly for me. I did a clean install.I started up bubblemon, and it has huge bubble floating up in it. Is there anyone else with this problem?
I have installed Fedora 11 and have been using it for about a 4 months now. Everything has been working just fine until this morning when I booted up the computer and it hung at the blue screen with the F bubble in the middle. I waited about 10 minutes without any change to the system. I held down the power button to power off and tried starting the computer again with the same result.
I'm encountering a strange problem. I need to open and forward all UDP and TCP ports related to VoIPtelephony (5000:32000) in the Suse 11.1 server that's acting as router/firewall in our setup. The ports must redirect to a Asterisk server in the local network. (This server has the IP adress 192.168.0.3)I've opened ports in Yast (Firewall>Ports>Advanced) and putted in some masquerading rulesirewall>Masquerading):0/0,192.168.0.3,tcp,5000:31000,5000:310000/0,192.168.0.3,udp,5000:31000,5000:31000when I do a nmap localhost I get:Starting Nmap 4.75 at 2010-01-08 16:52 CETInteresting ports on localhost (127.0.0.1):

I have just installed ubuntu 10 on a thinkpad t410. At first everything worked swimmingly, INCLUDING the wireless. After about five minutes, the wireless stopped working, in that it seemed to think it was still connected but pinging didn't work. I've now restarted several times, and each time I restart, the wireless works for about 1 minute, then stops working. If I try to disconnect and reconnect it will not reconnect (until I restart, that is).
iwconfig shows the correct ESSID and ifconfig shows an address, and "connection information" shows a varying percentage of connection.
I was gaming last night (Mass effect 2) and I wondered if it is possible to let Ubuntu speak notification. Like: "1 new message" or "updates available" like the AI inmost of the sci-fi games. I goggeld around cause I could imagine someone wanted this to but with no luck. Any way to get voice notifications ?
When i plugged anything into a USB port (mp3 player, camera hard drive etc..) I had a notification come up asking what program I wanted to open the device with.
