[Bug 111558] Re: Audacity skips while playing sound file

2007-05-05 Thread jesusthepirate
CPU usage?

use gnome-system-monitor

if you are hitting 100%, it will skip.  obviously, you should not hit
100% on your hardware, especially playing a WAV file.  if you -are-
hitting 100%, then there is a problem.. somewhere.

[Bug 82312] Re: [feisty] X is blank after upgrade

2007-04-23 Thread jesusthepirate
Thanks for the update flabdablet... until I read your comment, it didn't
occur to me that my post wasn't really that informative.. I guess I was
just focusing on getting people back up and running.

First of all, as far as I know, there is absolutely no reason to run the
legacy drivers, so please don't... glad it worked for Michael Asher, but
the 440-go isn't on the legacy list,  so that might be a bad idea
overall.

The issue here is obviously very simple:  we're defaulting to the wrong
display, which is why the DFP is actually turned off, not just blank or
corrupt (like when encountering other problems nvidia binary driver
setup on a Latitude C840 / Inspiron 8200)

Option "UseDisplayDevice" "DFP"
conveniently tells x.org what display to use,  which is why the display works 
on your 8200,  not to mention why the display works on my C840.

just to be clear since i'm sure a decent few people will be skimming
through here:  please do not just download other people's xorg.conf file
(like flabdablet's or my own) and replace yours with them.  it's pretty
much a bad idea to just go copying entire xorg.conf files from other
people, as they covers quite a few settings.  (such as the resolution,
my xorg.conf is for a 1400x1050px screen, flabdablet's is for a
1600x1200px screen.. and both our notebooks were available with either
screen.)  It's a much better idea to read the xorg.conf file and compare
the options in appropriate sections with the options in your own
xorg.conf file.

To clarify on the instructions I posted above, the commands are intended to
A. reset xorg.conf to a defaults file,
B. have nvidia set it's defaults,
C. splice in the UseDisplayDevice option.

hopefully that clears up a little bit about where the problem lies and
what my instructions do, for those who may be a little shaky on
either...

not a big deal.

from the black screen when you boot up, press CTRL+ALT+F2 to get a
console, log in.

next, please:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
sudo nvidia-xconfig
nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

in xorg.conf please locate the section "Screen" and add an option line like so:
 Option "UseDisplayDevice" "DFP"

you may also want to use this opportunity to change the default color
depth from 16 to 24

i've attached my xorg.conf

the laptop this xorg.conf runs on is a Dell Latitude C840 w/ GeForce GO
MX440 64MB w/ 1400x1050px LCD

[Bug 60277] Re: Windows Network entries use a text icon instead of a computer one

2006-11-07 Thread jesusthepirate
a co-worker and I were experiencing the same problems on our Ubuntu 6.10
(fresh) installs, I happened to drop by here:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=122292

and the posted work-around:

Modify the following file as noted below and this will fix your problem.

/etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/smb-module.conf
#smb: [daemon] libsmb > commented out
smb:libsmb.so > added


that works, for me at least.  haven't tried it on the other unit yet.  of note 
is that one of the posters in the thread -clearly- states that this work-around 
is "quite wrong"
