[ubuntu-uk] gopenvpn
Hi I am using gopenvpn gui (http://gopenvpn.sourceforge.net/) to connect to multiple vpn servers. It works fine. There is a issue. The issue is that the internal name servers doesnot get populated in /etc/resolv.conf file. I am using Ubuntu 9.04 Desktop. so i am not able to browse some internal sites is there a way to populate the internal nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf With Network Manager, the internal Name servers are populated in /etc/resolv.conf but i cannot simultaneously connect to multiple vpn servers. There is a Bug for it https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/91389 Please guide/suugest Thanks and Regards Kaushal -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

If you can login to a terminal (either console or other terminal) under your normal user account, try renaming .gnome2 and .gnome2_private (they are usually hidden directories): mv .gnome2 .gnome2-old mv .gnome2_private .gnome2_private-old Then log out and try logging in again and see if it makes any difference. With any luck Gnome should re-create the folders and fix the problem. If all else fails just rename the folders back. Hope this helps.

[ubuntu-uk] Logging into a blank white screen
Hi all, Something is borked on my Lenovo 3000 N500 laptop :( When I boot up, I get the log-in screen as per normal, but after logging in I'm faced with a blank white screen, wether with the normal gnome desktop or the failsafe. I can get into a shell no probs. Amongst the errors in .xsession-errors is: ** (nautilus:8497): WARNING **: Unable to add monitor: Not supported I'm presuming that this has been triggered by a recent update, but cannot recall any that would affect the display. Booting into a crunchbang live cd works fine Running an up to date jaunty with Intel graphics. Suggestions?
