Ubuntu :: Weird Bars On The Side Of Screen?
Aug 25, 2010I suddenly have a couple of unexplained black bars on the right side of my screen. I recently installed conky and guake, and GNOME Do, but the problem happens whether or not they're running. I've tried rebooting, and turning off desktop effects.

Jul 12, 2011A couple of days ago, without updating the system or installing any software (AFAIK), a weird blank bar appeared at the bottom of the screen of my Dell Latitude 2100 (check the screenshot for a better detail).It looks like, somehow, the resolution of the screen is now smaller (1024x576) and Ubuntu doesn't recognize anymore this small band of the screen.
View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: 10.04 64-bit Freezes Randomly With Weird Screen / Solution For This?
May 13, 2010I installed 10.04 beta 2, but have all the updates to this point. Everything freezes randomly. I get a weird pattern across the screen and the mouse and keyboard stop working. From what i can tell, the hard drives just keep spinning at whatever speed they were spinning when the freeze occurred.
I haven't been able to reproduce it on purpose.
I was using an Nvidia 8400 GS and through some reading i thought it might be the nvidia drivers. I tried reinstalling the drivers and still froze randomly. I took out the video card but I realized I have an onboard nvidia chip (GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 rev a2). Drivers or not, it still freezes randomly.
Ubuntu Installation :: 10.10 Acting Weird After Boot Screen?
Oct 10, 2010I have just upgraded from 10.04 (where everything was working fine) to 10.10...I am able to boot in recovery mode (graphic mode is working ok this way), but not in normal mode: just after the purple Maverick boot screen, I get a black screen where my computer stucks, possibly for ever (although I can't be definitive on this point )Do you guys have any thought on what is going on here?I boot once in recovery mode, updated my graphic driver (ati, which was not working well anymre according to catalyst), and then I thought everything would be allright, but it is not the case: still black screen at boot.
View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Servers :: TC Doesn't Provides A Weird Screen Resolution At The LDM?
Oct 20, 2010Trying to connect an intel atom based TC which uses the Intel D945GSEJT motherboard. We have several old AcerPower F1 PCs which connect OK but the new TC doesn't provides a weird screen resolution at the LDM - 1152x864. I've logged in and looked at the monitors section and it thinks there is a laptop monitor for some reason in addition to an undetected monitor. If I try to change anything I lose my mouse which is VERY strange.
If I boot 10.04 using a USB memory stick on the TC everything is fine - I can get 1280x1024, the monitor is detected and all is well. I've tried changing monitors, fiddling with lts.conf etc with no success. For info, my current lts.conf is as follows
[default]
X_NUMLOCK = True
X_COLOR_DEPTH = 24
LDM_DIRECTX = True

View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Weird Split Screen Effect On Arcade Monitor / Fix It?
Aug 30, 2010I've been using Ubuntu for a while on my laptop so I thought I'd also run it on my arcade machine. The monitor can handle a resolution up to at least 704x513 60hz (the resolution the original arcade game used) and uses composite sync. I've spent some time using xrandr to get the resolution, refresh rate and sync polarities that I need.
These are the commands I used to set my resolution.code...
But it has the same effect since I have the hsync and vsync wired into a composite sync anyway.
What I get is this weird split screen effect that's in the picture. It looks like I'm missing something I just cant figure it out!
Ubuntu :: Computer Randomly Goes To Weird Screen And Stops Working?
Dec 3, 2010I am asking in the wrong place or anything like that, I tried to understand the Tutorials, but I am only human Oh and I am not a native speaker of English, So I also apologize for that...Okay enough apologizing, I will assume that you are all nice people and wouldn't have made fun of my stupidity anywayAs I said I am new to Linux and also to my PC. I bought it a couple of weeks ago and I tried to install Windows on it, but it was displayed in only 16 colors ( I assume this is not connected to my current problem but it might be...) and I couldn't fix that so I installed Ubuntu 10.4.something( It asked me if I wanted to upgrade to the newest version...) . Since then I have been really happy, I only had minor problem with the chat software but after I googled it I found a solution and I even used the console for the first time in my life.
The problem with the chat software is back now, but I don't care about that.My Computer randomly stops working and the screen goes all weird. It switches between a mix of white and black bars, something really colorful and a black screen with text ( I have the feeling it's different text every time) I am not sure what happens after that, because I always turn it off and restart it. It won't react to anything when it is in this weird mode. I don't think there are any special situations in which it happens and I can't reproduce it, it just happens when I don't want it to happen. A friend who uses Linux said it might be a temperature problem, he only knew what I just told you. I am not sure if there is a connection between the time the computer has been on and the time it shuts off...I really like Linux and I would love to use it without ith when I said that I got my PC new ( it was used though) I was trying to say that I don't know whether this is a Ubuntu problem or not
Debian :: New Install On PPC - Weird Screen On Startup?
Feb 3, 2011This is my first attempt at Debian. I am running Ubuntu right now and have run puppy linux in the past. I have an iBook G3 that I put Debian PowerPC on. The install went fine. However, on initial startup, when I believe it should boot into the true GUI, it simply gives me horizontal lines that start white and then turn blue. They move slightly. The computer did have a funky graphics chip prior to install, but I am not convinced that it decided to crap out right after the install, especially considering I can see the startup procedure fine.
View 13 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Weird Screen - Line Has A Yellow-ish Tint And Always Appears On The Same Spot
Jan 18, 2010I suddenly seem to be having a small issue with my laptops LCD. Recently, when I cold boot the laptop I will get a line of single pixel width running from the top to the bottom of the screen. This only seems to appear when the x server or the windows gui starts. Now if I turn off the screen after the line appears (e.g. closing the laptop lid while switched on) the line will sometimes disappear and all will be as normal. However, on the next boot I may see the line again. The line has a yellow-ish tint and always appears on the same spot. It appears on both windows XP and Ubuntu, so I assume it's a hardware issue? The line appears even when I have a blank screensaver on.

Aug 23, 2011I have a Nvidia 275GTX and I installed the nvidia drivers via RPM fusion and blacklisted Nouveau as instructed by a guide online that I see matches the one on these forums. When my system boots up now instead of having the cool blue screen with the fedora logo in the middle that loads up I get a black screen with a bar at the bottom that says Fedora 15 to the right and the bar fills up blue and white. It looks like 8 bit Nintendo. Did I do something wrong? Is there a way to get the nice Fedora 15 load screen back?

View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: 10.04 Installation Has Gotten Weird?
Feb 26, 2011My Ubuntu10.04 installation worked great until recently. But now, this stuff happens:
--On the GNU GRUB ver 1.98-1ubuntu7 list, about half the time I can't move the highlight--no response to keyboard arrow keys, and no response to Enter key--have to wait 60-seconds for highlighted item to start.
--login box's appearance is different, like a different visual scheme/theme
--after login, the screen remains black for a long time before the desktop appears
--when desktop appears, the desktop program icons are gone
--when I launch an app, like the terminal window, it takes a long time for it to open, and after opening, it takes a long time for the prompt tyler9@tyler9-desktop to appear
--Nautilus file browser won't open. When I launch it, I get a button on panel on bottom of screen [like Windows Taskbar] that says "Starting File Browser" but the button disappears, and Nautilus doesn't open. If I enter "nautilus" in terminal window, I get "Bus error."
--Firefox is very slow; typically a delay when I click a tab, and very often, it "darkens"--takes on a darker color and won't respond to clicks. This "darkening" thing happens in other pgms and docs too
--often a long delay when I click anything--panel menu, in a doc, etc
Any ideas for troubleshooting, what the cause(s) might be? My subjective sense is that there's some process(es) running that is causing all this junk. Is there a way to "roll back" to when everything worked OK? Is there an error log or something that might specify why this is happening? [Note: It's not a HW issue--machine is dual-boot Ubuntu/Mint9, and Mint9 works fine--none of the above problems.]

Ubuntu Servers :: Weird Php And/or Mysql Bug?
Aug 20, 2010I have probably found a bug in the Ubuntu php5 package. At first I thought it's a problem with Zend Framework, which I use, then I thought it's a php issue, but now it seems to be a problem with Ubuntu's php packages. My problem is that under certain conditions, php is going to read records from the mysql database table infinite times. For a much more detailed description of the bug,[URL]..
I've tried on an x86 Ubuntu Desktop edition, and an x64 Ubuntu Server edition, both 10.04, and both had this bug. I have set up a test system (x86 Ubuntu Server edition 10.04), and compiled apache2 and php5 from source, but used the mysql-server package from the repository. And I couldn't reproduce the bug. However, after copying the self-compiled libphp5.so file from the test system to the desktop that produces the error, I could still reproduce the error on the desktop. This suggests me that the problem is either not in php, or - more probably - there are multiple php binaries used in the repository version, and therefore it doesn't matter that I've copied my libphp5.so because mysql functions are somewhere else. I've found a mysql.so file in /usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs coming from the php5-mysql package. Does that have anything to do with this issue?

Feb 22, 2011When I start up my computer and it gets to the login screen I hear these 2 weird noises from my speakers and I do not know where they come from since I disabled the start up sound. Anybody know what this can be? I disabled the start up sound because it did not sound right, it was stuttering.All music listening and playing games (Heroes of Newerth) works like a charm. Only application where I can get the same stuttering effect is when I start Ventrilo with wine (world of warcraft works without any issues)Please let me know if you need any information about my system and I will supply it, I run 10.10 Maverick 64 bit.
View 3 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Weird Brake-down Of System?
May 10, 2011since yesterday my 11.04 system behaves real strange. Firstly, i can not use any of my external storage media anymore (detachable cd-rom among them). On several devices i tried to mount, they would not appear in /media/ dir, neither could i see them in Nautilus. I know that the system does recognize them in the usual fashion as before, which i can see in system.log and for example GParted.
The other thing is i can't access my trash anymore - when clicking on it in Nautilus, i get the "Sorry, could not display all the contents of "trash": Operation not supported" message. Last obvious and weird thing was that my Ubuntu One panel personalizations i have made since installing are gone (that is adding and removing icons from there) - it is back to the "original" state which was just after installation.
I didn't notice anything else obvious - apart from the things already mentioned, system seems to work fine.The worthy of mentioning things i've done before these failures was the downloading of system updates and installing of some software (tex-base, monkeyaudio codec, DropBox; actually i've got a shadow of doubt cast on this last one, since installing it required some changes to Nautilus). I don't have any previous kernel to try to load.
Since it's been only a month of usage of ubuntu on my new machine reinstalling it wouldn't hurt me so much, but i would really fancy to find out the root of this strange behavior of the system i am experiencing.

You can see big letters S P M at the beginning of every line. If I am adding more info to display, those letters continue to appear on every line.

View 3 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Weird Font - All The Characters Were Boxes ?
May 24, 2010I noticed some programs, such as Terminal, would instead of having the default font, all the characters were boxes (as if they were undefined chars). Then I restarted and then ALL TEXT ON UBUNTU WERE []S. I can't even read what anything says. I'm in Windows now posting this because I can't read anything on Ubuntu.
How can I fix this font issue? (Preferably without reinstalling?) I noticed using recovery mode I can use a non-GUI version of Ubuntu which is basically Terminal as an OS in which I can actually see the font.
