[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 553200] Re: Mouse and keyboard stop working after selecting user
Woops, I had bungled up the PPA install. So I removed it and then ran sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade and since Alberto's changes have been included in the updates everything is now fixed. Awesome! Thanks so much for fixing this!

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 553200] Re: Mouse and keyboard stop working after selecting user
Yep, this bug is now affecting me too. Weird because Ubuntu 10.04 was working fine on this Dell Inspiron 2650 for some time before. So now I used scalawag_'s suggestion at http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9054571postcount=7 to get to the Ubuntu Desktop: At the gdm screen: Ctrl+alt+F2 login with username and password sudo service gdm stop startx After I was booted into the GUI, I created a special user(I used username: freeuser) via SystemAdministrationUsers and Groups, set it up with admin privileges, then enabled the Don't ask for password on login setting. So then after I reboot, I click the user freeuser and it logs in automatically (sometimes gdm restarts and I have to click it a second time, but after that it works). Then after that, I had to(as I've always had to do with this machine while the nvidia graphics are installed) set Appearance Preferences(right-click the desktop, click Change Desktop Background, then Visual Effects), from Normal to None. Something else I notice is that my nvidia driver won't install properly. I click SystemAdministrationHardware Drivers and then try to activate the driver(version 96) but it fails with Sorry, installation of this driver failed. Please have a look at the log file for details: /var/log/jockey.log (attached). Seems unlikely that any typical new user could even make any of this work. So in the case of this Dell Inspiron 2650 anyway, this problem is a vote for buying Ubuntu preinstalled. Thanks to everyone helping with this!

Whoops, I meant to attach my jockey.log in #16. So I've done one better.. I've attached the jockey.log and I generated a log from 'sudo nvidia-bugreport.sh' and tarred them up together in the attachment. Cheers!

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 460616] Re: [i945GM] Black video playback with dual screen enabled
@davidcaste, your workaround works for me, Thanks a bunch for posting it!! (Doesn't Work)Previously my xorg.conf showed: Virtual 2048 2048 Now it's set as you said to: Virtual 2880 900 and I can play videos. When I first changed the setting, I thought the screen resolution for my dual monitor configuration was going to suffer, but it didn't. The resolutions for my monitors are as follows: 1280x1024 Planar 19 lcd monitor 1400x1050 hp Compaq nc6320 lcd screen Right On. That just made my day. Ubuntu is awesome!

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 393623] Re: Can't play multimedia video (i.e., *.ogg, *.flv, *.wmv) when external monitor is connected
Bryce, I've tried booting to Karmic Alpha and am able to run a .wma video (after installing ubuntu-restricted-extras of course) but only when my two displays are set to mirrored. So as soon as I try to extend my desktop onto the second monitor by unchecking 'mirror displays' in SystemPreferencesDisplay, the tool informs me that config files have to change and I have to logout/back in. The problem now is that once I logout, the screen goes black, and the login screen never reappears (but there is the Ubuntu theme sounds). So when this happened, I tried switching to run level 3 and then running the apport-collect bugnumber command, which then connects me to launchpad via the lynx web browser (which I installed previously) only to find out that this process does not appear to work with Lynx. I even tried copying in my older xorg.conf file and using the startx command to try to get video, and nothing... the screen is backlit-black. So I've attached a few files from the /var/log dir and the xorg.conf file for your perusal. Needless to say, since I was never able to log back in with non-mirrored screens, I was not able to test to see if the videos work. Any suggestions? Thanks a lot!

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 393623] [NEW] Can't play multimedia video (i.e., *.ogg, *.flv, *.wmv) when external monitor is connected
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg When I have an external monitor attached, I can't play multimedia video (i.e., *.ogg, *.flv, *.wmv) in any player (i.e., totem, vlc, mplayer, gxine, etc.). The behavior is that when the player(i.e., totem, vlc, mplayer, gxine, etc.) is launched, the player window shows momentarily, and then it crashes before playing the video. When running from the command line, a command such as totem-gstreamer somemovie.ogg, or even vlc somemovie.ogg, the player crashes and the following error msg is displayed:The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. (Details: serial 139 error_code 11 request_code 132 minor_code 19). I've used the suggested method to report this bug. Thanks for any help you can provide.
