*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 96991 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/96991 I don't think that my problem is Compiz related as I was not using anything related to Compiz at the time of my writing. I have since installed and use Compiz. Now I have other applications doing this same thing

I have the exact same problem. Don't know how to tell what card I have but I think it uses the intel module also. Any help would be appreciated. I am on a Acer 5610z laptop. -- audacity stops recording after about a second when using software play-through https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/355846 Yo

Btw, everything was working fine until I upgraded to Ubuntu 9.04. When I upgraded everything was slow but enabling UXA made it speed up. The only thing not working now is Audacity with software play-through. I can get it to sort of work by playing with the input and output devices in Audacity, but

I too have the same problem. I have attached a screen-shot of what is happening. Basically, the whatever program is on top, gets pushed behind the preview. When moving the preview window, it leaves a trail of images of the preview. The screen just fails to refresh, even hitting F5 at the desktop to

Thank you thank you thank you for this. I could not find an alternative to the system->preferences->appearance->interface tab until now. Your second solution of going to desktop->gnome->interface->can_change_accels in gconf-editor worked. So, thank you. -- "Open in terminal" should have a keyboar

The battery indicator is not an "ignorable" icon! I think it is a stupid idea to have everything menus. If the application is not "notifying" you then what is it doing when you hover over it and it shows useful information? Your just making me have to click more! STOP IT! I like Ubuntu but, I am go

Simply changing "true" to "false" within the match block, as stated by pruch, works for me. It was all working fine until I accidentally unplugged my Sansa without unmounting it first. Now I can do that and have no problems but, I believe that is what caused this because up until now I have had no

Andrea, Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have searched high and low, all over the Internet and your post is the first to actually answer the question of how to set F4 to open the current directory in a terminal window like KDE's Konqueror does. I found several other pages relating to the nautilu

Ubuntu is already overweight and bloated. I'll beit, not as much as Winblows but it is. The reason I stick to Ubuntu is because it "just works". Though, now, It does not "just work" a lot of the times and this tool tip thing has just about done me in on switching back to Winblows. I have been usin
