I have Ubuntu 7.04 and i am newbie, recently i installed Skype 2.1 Beta for Linux.
When I start Skype everything is fine but the moment when i Sign in, Skype closes by itself (or maybe something else close Skype)
I have an LG R-450 laptop with Ubuntu 10.04 installed in it. When I connect him to a network (either LAN or Wireless) it stays connected for a few minutes and then Just disconnects (without showing any sign of disconnection except no internet/skype/dropbox). Only way to renew connection is after startup. The network controller is SIS 191 Gigabit Ethernet adapter.
I have a problem my ubuntu is the latest distro but the shiftkeys are not working like when i whant an @ sign i cant make that sign the keybaord layout has been changed i even have done most of the solutions found on the site and no use.

I recently bought a IOgear USB bluetooth adapter and a Sony DRBT101/BLK bluetooth headphones to use with my computer.Whenever I try to make a call using these headphones with skype, I can speak for say 10 seconds and then the headset disconnects completely from the system. I then have to reconnect the headset by switching it off and on. I do not have this problem listening to music using A2DP. It works fine with my mobile phone.When I change the profile to Telephony Duplex (HSP/HFP), it shows up as hands free, I thought it should be headset in blueman manager. My friend uses Plantronics headset with is Dell laptop with built in bluetooth and he says his comes up as headset not hands free. Could this be causing the problem?
hJust installed brand new Centos 5.6 and skype, according to centos wiki (http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Skype) Getting these errors: skype: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.9' not found (required by skype)
Does anybody know a good option for a Skype based solution that works on Linux? I have a real problem with the current Linux version as it is a crappy, buggy and downgraded version of the Windows equivalent.
I just recently purchased a 3g dongle for my netbook. Everything seems to be working fine until I discovered this strange problem. I cant seem to text via skype, it doesnt go through. I testet the skype test call service and voice works fine, audio and mic. I have tried to google and search forums but no luck. I have before used skype on my netbook with my cellphone as a hot spot and it worked without problem but it doesnt have the same provider - different sim cards in phone and dongle.
I was using windows xp, then I've installed ubuntu using the windows installer that [URL] offers. Before the installation begins, the program first asked me about the user name and the password that I want to set. but nothing about the root password. Later when i tried to sign in as the root, the password i've provided didn't work for the root, but it works with my normal user name. So now I want to sign in as a root.
I am a student taking an online course in electronics, on my class web site the Omega sign is showing up as a W instead. I have tried to change the font even tried to import new fonts that might have the sign. I have also tried to change the character encoding nothing has worked and ideas I will try anything. I am running firefox 3.5 and ubuntu 9.10
Is there any shortcut on keyboard to make this sign: � ? I know that in Office it appears automatically by typing "(c)", but what is about any other application?
Hello, everytime I log in, I get a prompt asking me to enter my password to unlock the keyring. Then when I open Empathy, I am not automatically connected. When I open my empathy accounts (F4), it says Available but I am not signed in. I have to remove and re-add my account.
I'm trying to setup a linux computer to connect to my works wirless. It uses a WPA2 password with a dollar sign in it. I can't input it into wpa_passphrase because it thinks dollar sign means some command.
How do I tell it that the dollar sign is part of the password?
I have been recently been using Ubuntu machines in my faculty labs at university that have % as the terminal sign for the line rather than the location.
For example, % kate & % echo "helloooo" > hello.txt %
I find this extremely annoying as I am used to % being replaced with a path to the current directory followed by a $. Like a default Ubuntu install.
For example,
james@james-pc:~$ cd Documents james@james-pc:~/Documents$
I would like to know if there is an easy way to change this to what I am used to? I don't necessarily need the "james-pc" bit, the username would be nice but I really want the path to the directory.
I was curious if there was a way to maybe change the orange page graphics when ubuntu 10.10 opens to the log in. That color is really hard on the eyes and I figure it might be a background graphic that I could maybe replace to something less bright.
Having just successfully installed fallout 3 (yippee), one question arises.
Is it possible to turn off (and eventually back on) all superfluous process during gaming ? As an ex-win xp user, there was an app called "game booster", i think, that did this.
The process i have in mind are things like fancy compiz settings, dockbar X, and any upgrades that might be taking place in the background.
Again, it is important that i can restart these functions after kicking super-mutant ***.
I just did a clean install of Ubuntu 11.04 on my PC. Installation went smoothly, and I can boot it and log in.
If i leave it there running, nothing happens, but as soon as i try to run an application (Firefox, Update Manager, etc), the screen turns off and I can't do anything else anymore except reboot.
I was able to apply the latest updates using apt-get update from the terminal (one of the very few apps that doesn't turn the screen off), but can't get rid of the problem, what can i do?
My PC is a Intel Core i5 PC with a Nvidia Gefore 210 graphics card.
I was able to install the proprietary drivers for Nvidea, no change. Both Unity and "Ubuntu Classic" have this issue
I have Ubuntu 9.10 remix on my Dell mini 10, dual booting with windows xp. Everything worked fine, not a single hitch. Then this week I turned the computer on, and Ubuntu goes through the boot sequence and I get a blank screen before the sign on screen. Same result each time. I've worked with Ubuntu for about a year, but have never had boot problems and am really clueless on what to do here
I've just tried using my bluetooth today and Karmic cannot detect it. The dongle is blinking so I'm pretty sure there's no defect. I have the standard bluetooth packages installed. I've also tried the Bluetooth Setup with the:
how I would sign multiple files in ~/sign/unsigned and output them to ~/sign/signed with the orignal file name? The two issues I'm facing are
A.) I don't know how to sign all the files at one time in a folder using signapk or jarsigner
B.) When I do sign and individual file I don't know how to keep the same name from input using *.file (the wildcard) and keep the original name in the output.
There are 71 files i need to sign and make sure they all are signed with the same key at once. Individually signing them one by one would take too long because after I sign them individually I need to go and rename the signed file with the original name.
Here is the code I use to sign an individual apk file:
cd ~/sign/unsigned java -jar /home/andrew/sign/signapk.jar /home/andrew/sign/certificate.pem /home/andrew/sign/key.pk8 ~/sign/unsigned/*.apk ~/sign/signed/signed.apk
how I can keep the original input name to the output without having to rename them and then how could I sign multiple files at once?
I'm using a laptop that doesn't have a numlock key and would like to be able to switch numlock on and off without having to plug in an external keyboard.Is there a command or app that will let me do this?
I have been using Ubuntu 10.4 trouble free for the last week or so with the exception of one problem. Without warning, my computer shuts off. When I turn the computer back on, it skips the log in page. The turn off is very abrupt and happens without warning. It happened twice when I first installed the OS and has not happened at all until today when it happened twice again. Is this a common issue. It seems like a very odd way for a computer to crash.
