I am trying to install an XFX Radeon HD 5450 graphics card in my Ubuntu 12.10 desktop. I was disappointed that Xorg's radeon driver does not support Unity 3D for this card.

Is that really the...

AMD (née ATI) declared the x1200 "legacy" soon after I bought the motherboard 3 years ago! There hasn't been Catalysis driver support since. :(

I have been using the xorg's radeon driver since...

In the meantime, wouldn't be possible to modify a css stylesheet by brute force?

I tried the openjdk6 + icedtea6-plugin combination and it breaks with this particular banking security applet. Not from first hand experience, but from other reports in forums and blogs, other...

I am still confused about the veredict on this issue. I tried OpenJDK 6 and 7 with respective plugins and my bank's security applet goes into a loop, quickly using 100% of the processor.

The...

Well, the refined look and the dock in OSX I get. Unity has neither. The global menu can be an absurd in the Mac as well. Applications always in full screen are no longer a given in Macs. Have you...

I am serious.

With the Global application, launcher without a hierarchy and huge icons, it made the interface just plain silly in a desktop of a user with a multitude of application open.

But...

Maybe I didn't look hard enough, but the symbol panel disappeared completely after I installed the launchpad patch indicated above.

I had better luck with the official sid debian release, which is...

Things I can't live with:

1. Top panel with the application menu.
2. No hierarchy in the launcher. Do we really need an icon for each LibreOffice app?
3. Icons are HUUUUGE. Take so much space,...

Thanks for your suggestion. The mouse works fine if I plug it in after booting, I assume all drivers are present.

Tried the following suggestions from other threads, but my partivcular problem...

I am bumping this post as I have been having this same problem off-and-on with a variety of generic USB mice.

I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 AMD-64

Mouse won't be recognized at boot, but will work...

The typical event was to leave the system unattended and find it frozen at return. On occasion, it also happened while I was at the keyboard. The screen would simply go blank. At first I...

Yesterday, I installed the mainline kernel (2.6.34-020634-generic) and had no black-screen freezes since then. It looks promising. This system doesn't use any Ubuntu added kernel features. The...

Is the problem traceable to the kernel itself or to some feature added by ubuntu?

I am tempted to try the latest mainline kernel on lucid. How do I make sure I am not using any of the Ubuntu added...

Goodbye Yellow Brick Ubuntu ...

This went on for long enough. This system is barely usable with the frequent freezes. What distro do you guys think I should try next?

I have been trough Red...

So far, I set all power saving features to "never", added "nolapic" to grub and uninstalled ubuntuone.

System freezes went "down" to 3-4/day. Usually black screens after ...

:mad::mad::mad: Oh...

It turns out the answer from MPlayer-users was correct in the sense that that url (rtsp:) did not run in my old setup either. What I was doing on a regular base was to record the broadcast stream...

I just upgraded from Ubuntu 9.10->10.04. In the new system, mplayer stopped working with some RTSP streams which worked perfectly in my Ubuntu 9.10. Am I missing some codec o plugin I used to...

I spoke too early. It crashed 3 times in the past 2 hours.

I was looking at a couple of other problems at the same time. At one point it looked like mplayer needed the bluetooth service on. I had already stopped some unused services. After I brought ...

I went one step further and removed all Ubuntu One related packages. Guess what?

No more crashes !!!!

At least for the past 6 hours.
knock on wood ....

Let me join the chorus of crash and freeze victims.

I am running 10.04 AMD64 with all updates. This is an desktop AMD dual core system with ATI onboard X1200 graphics through the X.org radeon...

Confirmed as a bug in the xorg ati driver:

May is too late for a reply, but here it goes:

AFAIK, Octave only has some symbolic math capabilities. For a full featured system, look for maxima and wxmaxima.

Is this funny version number a good idea?

I tried to install a package from Debian Sid on Karmic and it requires version >= 4:4.5.2 for the qtlib4 packages. Which would be fine with the 4.5.2...
