Good to hear its working as expected for you.

I don't use a ~/.fonts.conf on my Ubuntu system but I still have this issue. My Arch Linux system does not have problem, leading me to believe the...

Yeah, unfortunately a lot of this stuff is already out-of-date for Awesome 3.1

Shame they keep breaking things ;)

Thanks, I tried the .fonts.conf file, but still hasn't made a difference :(

Here's some relevant posts on the Arch Linux forums:

Using

URxvt*font: xft:DejaVu Sans Mono:size=7:VL Gothic:size=7:antialias=true:hinting=true
for me, gives (in comparison with your image) the following. Notice the difference in spacing.

Solved it by adding my username to the audio group:

sudo usermod -a -G audio [user]

I'm in the same position with a minimal install at the moment. I have installed:

sudo apt-get install alsa-base alsa-utils linux-sound-base
but running alsamixer gives me:

In the release notes, do they just mean that the keycodes have changed?

I just updated my .Xmodmap keycodes by determining them all again using:

xev | sed -n 's/^.*keycode...

Same issue here, though this solved it:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libopenal.so.1 /usr/lib/libopenal.so.0

:oops: Thanks

I tried:
sudo aptitude purge `sed 's/purge$//' packages` but aptitude wants to remove all these, instead of just
x11-apps that I have specified :confused:

Hmm, something strange has happened (before trying your suggestion). apt-get is saying the xclock (one from my purge list) isn't installed even though it is:

I know I can make a list of all installed packages and reinstall them with something like:

I have an Acer laptop with a Phoneix 4.0 release 6.1 BIOS.

Thanks PriceChild, that does look useful. @CGorman68: Let us know if you get anywhere with this as it sounds like your after the same thing as me.

Thought I'd bring something else up: I copied the HD vid in question (Elephants Dream) to my external drive (SATA II going thru USB, can't remember any of the other specs) and it played absolutely...

I had a go at CoreAVC/compiling Mplayer and didn't finish it easily.

Are there any hints for improving h264/x264 performance without going through ugly compilation?

I'm currently reading...

Hey there,

Sorry, I should have been a bit more specific. Yes, I do have a wireless router that I use for internet on my laptop.

I have, as you rightly say, used a wire from the Xbox to the...

I have my xbox networked as so:

Crossover cable to/from laptop/xbox
xbox network settings as:


address 192.168.2.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.2.1

I have the same problem (no sound after suspend) with my EMU-1616m. I had to compile the latest ALSA myself for it to work.

Noticing:



do I have to do something similar?

Haha, I've always wondered this aswell. Cheers

There have been a few threads about this, it is something to do with QT3(4) apps hinting/antialiasing user preferences being ignored and are set based upon symlinks located at /etc/fonts/conf.d (i.e....

Who needs extensions when you have Opera!

Is there anything out there that will mimic the eee PC's "Easy Mode" tabbed desktop interface onto standard (X)Ubuntu?
