I'm confused by this. The fix was a setting problem, and I was informed a long time ago. Moribius1 nailed it on July 21st, in the page http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2235440&p=13078735#post13078735 , also referencing https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfe/+bug/1029256 . Fixed by : System Settings > Language Support > Keyboard Input Method System > From IBUS to None: Apparently a setting changed in 14.04 defaults from earlier Ubuntu versions?
It works fine now, just rechecked it. Definitely NOT a BIOS problem. I don't have the latest BIOS, but I also don't know of any bugs that affect operations. Everything seems to work fine. Where can I see info on the Ubuntu problems with this BIOS? Just for reference, here is the output from the command sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date : BHZ7710H.86A.0057.2012.0208.1904 02/08/2012 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1346435 Title: Cannot enter name for new folder, can't make folder To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1346435/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
