[Bug 1262752] Re: nvidia_304 not blacklisted or removed when nvidia_304_updates is installed.

2013-12-23 Thread Wayne McDougall
For your information:

> dkms status

Both modules were listed as being activated.

> dkms remove nvidia-304/304.88 -k 3.2.0-57-generic

I used this command, and everything worked perfectly on reboot.

Thanks for posting a solution

Thank you. Yes I was running the old version and since the NZ mirror was
4 days old, I got the update from the main server.

Have also run grub-install and dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc

Will let you know if I have any further problems.

How do I check what version of Grub2 I have installed?

I have experienced this bug on an up-to-date system, but it's possible
the mirror was out of date. It is still at this moment telling me I am
completely up to date.

Sorry for a noob question.

[Bug 402950] Re: PCM volume is reset to zero each time I log in

2009-10-15 Thread Wayne McDougall
1. Ctrl-alt-F2 (et al) gives me a screen of static - guess limitation of 
graphics card.
So I tried logging on using XTERM rathern than Gnome - I don't know if that is 
sufficient.
Under Xterm alsamixer shows PCM volume is zero. I set it to 71, exit, and 
reboot. Logging in to Xterm shows it 0 again.
Reboot and log in to Gnome desktop. Use alsamixer at terminal to increase PCM 
to 71. Reboot and log in using Xterm, and it's zero again. Log in using Gnome 
and it's zero again.

2. I then transferred hard drive to a different PC (with a different
soundcard). Repeated above but using tty2 instead of Xterm. Same
results. On this PC (with motherboard sound card) PCM volume does not
need to enabled to have sound. The original PC with a SB16 soundcard
does need PCM enabled for sound to work.

3. Happy to do anything else.

[Bug 226391] Re: snd-sb16 module not loaded for CT4180

2009-09-30 Thread Wayne McDougall
Using Ubuntu Karmic I have the same issue with the CT3180 identified as
card 'Creative Phone Blaster 28.8/33.6' but no sound modules are loaded.
The modem is detected and works just fine using wvdial.

modprobe snd-sb16 does NOT give me sound. It does work with Windows XP.
I'm trying to figure out how to manually set up with sound.

Installed Karmic alpha 5 as a base install with all updates (dist-
upgrade) installed up to 30 September 12noon GMT.

[Bug 430583] [NEW] New GDM login screen counter-intuitive

2009-09-16 Thread Wayne McDougall
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gdm

Looking at Karmic Alpha 5:

On logging on for the first time, the user only sees two buttons.
Restart or Shutdown. Many users will only look at the buttons.

Worse the login user name is already highlighted by default (only one
user after first install) - it is not at all obvious that you should
click on an already highlighted user name to bring up a password prompt.

I believe this needs some work to make it more friendly, usable and
intuitive. I'd suggest a Login button, even if all it does is act the
same as clicking on the highlighted user name. Not have the user name
highlighted, unless you also display the password box.

At the moment I know most of my family would try clicking on a button or
Other... in the hope that something would work. And I've spoken to some
other experienced Ubuntu users who admit that on first seeing this
screen they have to stop, and consider what should be done.
