Hi guys,

I've been plagued with an issue for a little while now. It's followed me through a number of versions of ubuntu (perhaps 3 or 4) to varying degrees. From time to time, it will simply shut...

This error's been plaguing me on and off since the last time I posted. There are days when I boot into ubuntu no problem and days when I get hit with the terminal and that error message. Right now I...

And somehow, now it loads without a problem. This after doing nothing but waiting 4 or 5 days before trying to login to ubuntu again.

This is good for now but still a bit distressing since I'm not...

Hello everyone,

I've had a very interesting time with installing the latest version of ubuntu (16.04).

Initially, I could barely get it to work. After a fresh install ubuntu would load only the...

For those of you having issues running the patch on a reinstall, there's a hidden file that the patch creates somewhere that you have to delete first before you can do so. I had to do this when I...

I installed vmware player 4.0.2 and had the same problem as the OP. The patch fixed it all up. Just updated to 4.0.3 and back to square one but now the patch won't execute and gives an error message...

Actually I've found a reference to a similar bug in debian but this dates back to Jan / May 2009. So I'm not sure what came of that. And, of course, I wasn't having this problem with ubuntu around...

I've actually done that before, and just tested it a while ago on a local ntfs formatted drive, and what happens is that it allows for both upper/lower case files to co-exist and linux can tell the...

I just did a bit of testing and it seems this error does not occur when I'm editing files that are local to my computer but the error continues to show itself while editing files on a writeable samba...

Hi,

I've noticed since upgrading to Maverick that nautilus has become very buggy and crashes quite a bit (I've noticed it tends to happen during multiple file transfers but really it happens often...

Hi,

I've noticed that nautilus has been crashing on my system (Maverick 64bit) a lot. It tends to happen when I'm transferring files from one drive to another, especially when I transfer multiple...

Hi,

Does anyone know how to fix this issue. Whenever I import a CD each track is displayed twice in the library (but only one mp3 file is made) with one track displayed as being a few seconds...

Hi,

I've done much research on using XBMC with a upnp network drive and have discovered that XBMC can stream the files located on such a drive but does not support scraping for metadata with them....

I think I have it figured out though this is only a short-term fix. If you downgrade wine1.2 to 1.1.31 and uninstall wine (it seems wine is only a dummy package so i suppose wine 1.2 does all the...

Okay. I tried downgrading to 1.01 and that didn't work for me. Same error.

Why not try vlc? One of the better players I would say (some might tell you mplayer is better and they might be right but vlc's pretty good as well). Just install it through synaptic.

Wow. I just posted with the same problem except I'm using office. You wouldn't happen to have figured this one out yet have you? I'm thinking maybe a wine downgrade would do the trick (at least it...

Hi,

I'm not sure what I've done (I must have done something because this was not happening to me say 1 or 2 weeks ago) but now every time I load microsoft office 7 (using wine) the program will...

It seems the problem was file and folder structure. More on that in the xbmc forum post in the previous link.

I've posted a similar request on the XBMC forum that I think might be a little bit more clear on exactly what I've done so far and what the big problem is if you're interested.
...

Another quick, and hopefully easy, question.

I've added a source for my movies via the menu and that worked out fine. But If I go into the "Watch TV Shows" section, then to the files section and...

Hello again,

Of course I've come back with more XBMC related questions. I've noticed that everytime I turn off my XBMC box (ubuntu 9.04 with xbmc running in it's own standalone session) the audio...

Hello again. Just wanted to say that I solved my problem and actually feel a little foolish about it. If you go into the configure system>settings.appearance>screen section (I think I got that...

Hi,

I've installed jaunty and xbmc and xbmc-standalone on my pc. Now whenever I start in the XBMC session, the viewable content (menus / videos / etc) is shrunk to a little less than a half of...

I've been fiddling with what I hope to be a PVR very soon for a while now and I've found myself in an odd predicament.

I'm using the on-board composite video output on my Jetway motherboard which...
