[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1424491] Re: apt-get fails to install fglrx or fglrx-updates in 14.04.2 and 12.04.5
Things were working for me [after a very long fight - so complex I don't even know what worked] in 12.04.5 until some weeks ago. Something changed and now I can't get fglrx to work or to install/reinstall. What is the situation with 12.04.5? Many of the 'It worked' above remarks fail to mention which, and I assume it is always 14.04.2 I'm very frustrated having been unable to use my OS for many weeks now [again]. What recently changed that could have caused the problem anew or new problem? Short of removing the stack [don't know how and don't really want to] how can I get fgrlx-updates or any fglrx on 12.04.5 I have a MSI Radeon HD.7970.

I'm having big problems getting the new 2:15.200-0ubuntu0.3 installed. I've tried over five times and can't get it to work - can't even get into the OS in 14.04.2 when it is installed and reboot. What special 'sauce' is needed? I'm not very proficient with Linux and have tried in terminal and by synaptic [when all fglrx drivers are purged I can get in on Xorg - but even that is no longer seeing my three monitors and has each one as a separate monitor, rather than one big desktop, as before. Downloaded the fglrx-installer-updates_15.200.orig.tar.gz for Trusty, but don't see how one is supposed to install it...the only method I didn't try.

You have put many launchers on panel, bet programs does not exist for them anymore. This is what I see from log messages. You say that clicking on panel makes it crash/disappear. It could crash because panel fails to find program you try to launch. If so this is definetly bug as panel should not crash in such cases (I have no time to verify this). If you run programs from terminal and then close terminal it won't close only terminal, it will close all other programs you launched from terminal. Add ' ' at the end of programs names when you launch applications - 'gnome-panel --replace ' . And if you want close terminal don't do it by clicking close button but type 'exit' command in terminal. You can see your username in terminal. None of the launchers/programs I tried to launch are the ones now missing [they are not displayed]. The are ones I have successfully used only a few days before today. My panels are all black now and not pretty - why did you want me to change them and can they be changed back to colored and partly transparent? You are correct about using exit rather than the close button. But I don't want to launch programs from terminal, but from launchers on a panel. Is there not a way to just re-install the likely problematic packages, such as gnome-panel and a few related? On the username - yes it shows in terminal, but I had my old username and created another, and can enter into 14.04 using either - but I think they may be the same 'user' with two different names - but not sure.

I tried it once and it not only failed, but was several WEEKS work for me to try to get things almost to how I had them. I know for some, a clean install is not terrifying or doesn't take them long. Not so for me. Are you using default theme - Ambiance? Then panels should not be black. I wanted that you change back to system theme to check if problem is in custom style. I know one person who had problems with transparent panels. Problem disappeared when he changed settings back to system theme. I'll have to check which theme I'm using and will have to research how to tell. I think, but not sure, it is not the default one. Panels are definitely black now. In 12.04 the color and transparent panels worked perfectly. I also can't seem to add launchers for many of the programs and monitors [temp, disk activity, etc.] I had on them before. They are just not there now after the upgrade. Transparency does not work fully anyway so I would suggest to use system theme for now. I have plans on fixing panel background, but that probably wont happen this year - so background probably will be broken even in ubuntu 15.04 version. :( Reinstall wont solve anything. You can try to reset gnome-panel configuration (see accepted answer): http://askubuntu.com/questions/125662/how-to-reset-gnome-panel NOTE: It will remove all your customization to panel and will reset to default. Then try if now gnome-panel starts every time you login. If all good try to start customize it step by step: 1) Add custom launcher - do several reboots. I understand. I mentioned before that my 14.04 [on a very fast machine] takes about 10-15x longer to start than did 12.04 - so many reboots really takes a long time! 2) Try to customize panel style - do serveral reboots. This way you will find what part is causing problem or you will be lucky and problem will disappear. Pfft! A lot of time and work...but I'll give it a try.

It is important as we need understand if your problem is caused by your customizations/settings. There is no need for save button.

Have you tried to login in session after changing background to none? When you try to launch gnome-panel do this: 1) Open gnome-terminal (/usr/bin/gnome-terminal) not gnome-panel 2) Then type in this command: gnome-panel --replace You may need to do it multiple times as --replace command does not work like it should. Running gnome-panel from terminal will allow you to see error/warning messages. Sadly, there is no guest account and I see upon looking that changing that is not very simple. Yes, I found the way to save the changes, but I'm doing it in under my login - and while the panels change to black [there were blue and partly transparent], the fix works ONLY for ONE next session - then I get the desktop with no panels and no terminal via keyboard I'll try the launching of gnome-panel if it will do something when logged in as me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1380095 Title: Gnome Fallback[s] don't work in 14.04.

Help! Having multi-problems. Have been through no boot; booting into tty1 terminal only; now two out of three monitors working and the two working ones are not a desktop, but clones. Seem not to be able to install the new drivers. Getting many error messages that I don't understand. Also, on the internet I found 3 [!] slightly different instructions on how to install these...and don't know which to trust. Can't tell what is currently installed along the lines of CCC, if any and am having very hard time using the computer. Also get a message of it being in low graphics mode and don't know how to get out of this. They well could be related. Someone please help me know how to install the new drivers. I recently upgrated the VGA card and it needs these new drivers and they are supposed to work in both 12.04.4 and 14.04.
