Hi,
i have upgraded to the Intrepid Ibex of late and i am facing constant
issues with the desktop manager on every login.
This is what happens
+++++++++++++++
1. there is no background/wallpaper display
2. the manager doesn't load at times. I have to explicitly go to the
settings and start it
- 3. even when the explicit start is issued, the screen blanks out
- 4. ntfs disks are not mounted , but if an external ntfs disk is connected, it
auto mounts
This is what i have tried
+++++++++++++++++
1. added xfce-desktop and xfce manager in auto start applications
2. tinkered with fstab for auto mount
-
-
- Sporadic behavior noticed.
- +++++++++++++++++++
- When i first upgraded to 8.10, the kernel version was 2.6.x.x.7 , on an
update it turned 2.6.x.x.9. I had copied the files in /var/cache/apt/archives
to another folder on my external hard drive so as to keep a copy of the updates
in case the OS crashes due to some reason. I then install grub-splashimages
and startupmanager and installed a grub image to the system. I cross checked if
the image was applied in the /boot/grub/menu.lst file and reloaded. I did
comment out the earlier versions of the kernel available on the system before
reloading it
-
- Observed Behavior
- +++++++++++++
- Except for the windows option, all other options when selected would bring me
back to the grub again. I dint know why this happened, i coudnt edit the
command line either because i had no idea what went wrong with it.
