22 to 24 upgrade still held up after 17 months https://askubuntu.com/questions/1565191/22-to-24-upgrade-still-held-up-after-17-months

node-tar is one of the broken packages. It seems to have a lot of bits. Can I remove it, or completely remove it, and reinstall, without risking breaking the system?

i.e. is this essential stuff or will the removal and reinstall run OK?

The full set of faulty packages is node-{mkdirp,nopt,pre-gyp,tar}

Is it safe to fully remove the lot and reinstall them?

Trying to set simultaneous audio output broke my system. How can I fix it? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1565190/trying-to-set-simultaneous-audio-output-broke-my-system-how-can-i-fix-it

I'm a brand new Linux user running Kubuntu for the second day now.

I was looking for a way to set up audio output from two devices at the same time, which is a very important feature for me. I looked up a recent and human-written guide for this but, after following it, not only did I not achieve what I wanted, but something went wrong.

Some of the symptoms I'm experiencing: I can't correctly switch between my audio devices. Audio is either coming only through the speakers or not working at all. The menu seems glitched, as the radio buttons allow multiple selections, even though this has no effect. Youtube videos are not playing. And even Firefox became non responsive a few times since.

Screenshot of the current audio devices list

Here's what I did, following the guide:
1. Run

sudo apt install paprefs

This also uninstalled something, but I don't remember what it was.

2. Opened Paprefs, went to the "simultaneous output" tab and enabled "add virtual output device for simultaneous output on all local sound cards".

3. Restarted the system.

4. I could now see a new "simultaneous output" in my list of audio devices, but it didn't work and it was accompanied by the other symptoms I described above.

I have no idea how to check what went wrong and how to solve it, so any help would be appreciated.

mailman3-full install errors https://askubuntu.com/questions/1565189/mailman3-full-install-errors

I'm trying to set up a new 24.04 LTS machine with mailman3 to replace a mailman2 machine I currently run.

The issue is that during the install, I'm seeing multiple errors like the following:

Thanks!

Mouse clicks are not working https://askubuntu.com/questions/1565183/mouse-clicks-are-not-working

I am running the latest build of Ubuntu and have been trying to set up and run a Windows game. I can successfully install and initially run it via Heroic, and as a non-Steam game added to my library.

Launching it with Proton 9 or 10 works fine, but as soon as I am in the main screen and have to make a choice of two options on screen, the mouse clicks do not work. I can move the mouse cursor fine, but the game doesn't respond to any mouse key entries.

I have run app updates and upgrades, and tried uninstalling it via Wine/Winetricks and Bottles with no luck. When I tried running the installation via Winetricks, it rejected the 'broken' Nvidia driver build (I have tried switching multiple times to various supported Nvidia drivers and trying the installation after each change, again with no luck). I haven't got a clue what to do next.

I've tried doing multiple searches for an answer with no luck. In addition, all other Steam-based games and games I've added to Heroic work fully with no mouse-related issues. This looks like it's something specific to the game (Foundation: Galactic Frontier).

Do you have any ideas or suggestions?

Surface Book 3 Not Booting Kernel 6.17 https://askubuntu.com/questions/1565181/surface-book-3-not-booting-kernel-6-17

Can anyone provide exact steps to fix this issue? I can GRUB boot into Kernel 6.14 but my external monitors don't show the GRUB menu at boot time and it is very inconvenient to unplug from externals and use laptop screen for this.

Thanks- D-

Ubuntu 24.04 won't remember Numlock State or set default https://askubuntu.com/questions/1565178/ubuntu-24-04-wont-remember-numlock-state-or-set-default

Ok, so here is my setup... I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 24.04 I set up just a day or two ago.

I have followed this guide (which is obsolete for the Keyboard settings window) to use numlockx. It doesn't work. Numlockx reports my numlock is on when it in fact is not.

I tried this guide to configure it in gsettings, and it does not start with it on. Neither does it remember the status. I played around with changing it back and forth with terminal using numlockx and nothing ever happened in regards to the actual state of the numlock status.

My BIOS is configured with Numlock default on. It remains on until Ubuntu starts loading after the Grub menu. I have never had this much trouble before. WTSF?

EDIT: In case it matters, my keyboard is a prixx Periboard-312.

virtual box shared folders: cannot see full home directory to add path https://askubuntu.com/questions/1565176/virtual-box-shared-folders-cannot-see-full-home-directory-to-add-path

When trying to add a shared path using the Add Share dialog: Folder Path/Other directory pop up, the display of my home directory only shows Downloads/ and "VirtualBox VMs"/, not any of the other directories there, despite all sharing identical permissions.

This is VirtualBox 6.1 and VBoxGuestAdditions_6.1, with a Windows10 guest OS.

This stuff used to work. Some update must have killed it. Have not used it for a few years. There was a shared folder, but its entry is now shown mounted on D: rather than Z: where it was, and D: is the virtual box CD.

Firefox 149 hangs on startup unless I disable hardware acceleration https://askubuntu.com/questions/1565175/firefox-149-hangs-on-startup-unless-i-disable-hardware-acceleration

After updating the Firefox snap to 149, it seems to hang on startup. It'll just open a blank window and then stop. The only way I've managed to fix it is starting it in safe mode and disabling hardware acceleration. After that, it'll start fine, albeit with degraded performance.

Since it's probably relevant, my GPU is a Nvidia 1080Ti with driver 580.126.09.

Deja Dup cannot connect to remote server for backup https://askubuntu.com/questions/1565173/deja-dup-cannot-connect-to-remote-server-for-backup

Deja Dup failed to connect a remote FTP server where it sends my backups. Last backup was 7 days ago. The error message is as below: "Error: Cannot open data connection. Maybe your firewall prevents this?".

Deja Dup Error Message

I have never made any changes to the firewall settings, so the issue is somewhere else. I have checked the username/password in Seahorse and they are correct. I can connect to the remote server and browse around with Filezilla. I can also connect with the command line but I cannot browse around. The error message is "Passive mode address mismatch".

I suspect the ftp command line is having the same issue as Deja Dup. Any idea how I can resolve this ?

Only noticeable change last week is I've set up 2 VPN connections in Network Manager (OpenVPN and WireGuard). Not sure if they are to blame, but everything else works whether the VPN is on/off (regardless if I use OpenVPN or WireGuard). Deja dup and the ftp command fail as above with/without VPN.

I have also noticed that the IP mentioned on the PASV command (see image above -> YYY.YYY.18.28) differs from the one I get if I ping the server (YYY.YYY.18.68). Could be wrong but I suspect I need to force the ftp client to resolve the correct address before sending the command, but I have no idea how to do so for either ftp command line or Deja Dup.

I have tried forcing active mode (ftp -A) passive mode (ftp -p) and IPv4 only (ftp -4), with no luck. According to Murphy's law, I am due an HDD failure v soon, so I really hope someone can help fixing this before it happens.

I wonder if it's a cache I need to flush. It's working fine with lftp.

EDITS:

  • Using Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS.
  • The local system where Deja Dup is installed is a laptop on a home network. It is restarted daily, including after I noticed the issue.
  • I have no control on the remote FTP server, which is somewhere on the Internet. I rent some space there to drop off my backups. I cannot reboot it. Note that I can reach it and browse through using lftp. Only ftp, and more critically Deja Dup are failing with the error above. I wonder if it's a cache I need to flush.
HP Victus fb3022 is freezing https://askubuntu.com/questions/1565172/hp-victus-fb3022-is-freezing

I am relative new to Linux and have installed Ubuntu 24.04 on my HP Victus 15 fb3022no laptop.

The problem is that the computer freezes at random intervals - at least I have not found a pattern. It is often under low workload, e.g. browsing with Vivaldi browser.

As I understand the problem from other posts it is related to the onboard CPU/GPU AMD Ryzen AI 7.

Solutions that I have tried without it working:

  • Memory test: Passed (one test done - will do some more soon.)

  • Hardware acceleration disabled in Vivaldi.

  • PSR (Panel Self Refresh) disabled by adding the following parameter to my kernel command line: amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x12 - from answer no 2 in this thread: Ubuntu 24.04 freezing with AI 9 HX 370

Results of cat /proc/cmdline:

BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-6.17.0-19-generic root=UUID=35bedf7b-bdb8-4c6f-83b7-44dc3d7467cb ro quiet splash amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x12 vt.handoff=7

Have I done disabled the PSR right?

Very briefly under boot I see this message:

From other posts I get the impression that it is not important, but is that also the case for me?

Please let me know if there is any information that you need to understand the problem.

Ibus-table error "Permission denied: '/home/username/.local'" https://askubuntu.com/questions/1565169/ibus-table-error-permission-denied-home-username-local

I have set up Ubuntu on ZFS under LUKS as described here. However, I have used Ubuntu 24.04 instead of 22.10. This seems to work just fine, except for one thing: Directly after installation, on the first login, I get a "Ubuntu 24.04 has experienced an internal error" dialog box:

Ubuntu 24.04 has experienced an internal error

ProcEnviron:

There may be typos in the traceback because I had to copy it from a screenshot. Note that username is the literal string username and not something I substituted for my actual username. If this is python, I would expect it to contain the actual path. Of course, there is no user named "username" on my PC. (Maybe there is some substituion of the exception message going on, but I think that's unlikely. perhaps for anonymization purposes?)

This error keeps appearing and does not disappear after a reboot. The error persistently appears and after clicking the window away, it just re-appears, often several times. I have checked the permissions on my home directory and it is 755, owned by me and my group. Strangely, after some time and some reboots this error seems to disappear. I am not sure if this actually solves it.

I think on a previous installation I created a fake home directory for "username" with 777 permissions, but I do not think this solved the issue., but this does not solve the issue. Nothing happens inside /home/username.

What is the actual way to fix this?

Edit 1

Here is the output of printenv | grep XDG_:

XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/etc/xdg/xdg-ubuntu:/etc/xdg
XDG_MENU_PREFIX=gnome-
XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP=ubuntu
XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland

XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1000 
XDG_DATA_DIRS=/usr/share/ubuntu:/usr/share/gnome:/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/:/var/lib/snapd/desktop

Edit 2

It seems there is a second variation of this error, where the permission denied occurs for /home/username and not for /home/username/.local.

I also added ProcEnviron to the error message above. It seems XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is "set". I don't know to what it is set though or how to figure this out.

Steam adds way too many shortcuts https://askubuntu.com/questions/1565156/steam-adds-way-too-many-shortcuts

I installed Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS on a laptop, and when I install Steam games, for some reason, it adds like 40ish shortcuts, so when I look in the apps, all my games have 40ish. I would like to be able to just have one of each (or none would even work), as I can launch though Steam.

I switched to x11 instead of wayland but the problem remains the same.

What else shall I check ?

Why am I getting a black screen for 10-15 seconds on wake from suspend on Ubuntu 25.10 on an HP Envy x360 laptop? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1565135/why-am-i-getting-a-black-screen-for-10-15-seconds-on-wake-from-suspend-on-ubuntu

I've been having issues with my laptop taking an abnormally long time to wake from suspend, either via terminal or when closing the lid.

The laptop is a dual boot setup with Windows, and the problem persists between distros (Ubuntu 24.04, 25.10, Fedora 43), but does not appear when using Windows.

  • Model: HP Envy x360 2-in-1 Laptop 15-fh0xxx

  • Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 7730U with Radeon Graphics x 16

└─ EDID conformity: PASS

shows that my laptop doesn't have the option for deep (d3) suspend in the first place, so this makes me particularly suspicious.

Attempted fixes:

  • Switching distros to provide a clean boot experience

  • Messing with kernel boot parameters like

    • nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0
    • mem_sleep_default=s2idle
    • pci=no_d3
    • nvme_core.quirks=144d:a80b:0
  • Updating to the most recent BIOS firmware available for the laptop by HP (2025)

  • Attempting to change AHCI settings in BIOS

    • No such options exist on my BIOS for some reason, and I was having trouble booting into any custom "advanced" options, trying various keybinds with little luck. I'm not particularly enthusiastic to run a modified or custom BIOS just for the sake of changing it, either.

I'm starting to hit a dead end here, and while it's not the complete end of the world, a 15 second wait every time I open my laptop has been frustrating. Is there something I'm missing?

Setting my mother's 2GB RAM computer with Lubuntu and have tried unsuccessfully to install Broadcom wireless drivers https://askubuntu.com/questions/1565118/setting-my-mothers-2gb-ram-computer-with-lubuntu-and-have-tried-unsuccessfully

My mother's computer is a 2GB RAM HP Steam, and as you can imagine it has been unused for a while. I am trying to give it a new life using Lubuntu. Everything is alright except for the Wi-Fi connection to the internet. It is my first time using a terminal and I have already tried multiple ways to update the drivers and none of them have worked.

I started here: Installing Broadcom Wireless Drivers and have been trying to fix the errors that appeared along the way until getting to this tutorial: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=2749276#p2749276. And it still doesn't work.

Here is my terminal output.

Unable to install Upwork Desktop on Ubuntu 24.04 https://askubuntu.com/questions/1560592/unable-to-install-upwork-desktop-on-ubuntu-24-04

I just installed Ubuntu 24.04 on my HP Victus laptop and was setting up everything for work, but I am not able to use Upwork Desktop. I need it for time tracking as I work for my clients on Upwork. I have downloaded the .deb file from its official download page and installed it, but when I try to run it, nothing shows up, it runs in the background and after some time an error shows that "Upwork is unresponsive. Do you want to restart it?".

I am using Ubuntu 24.04 and the latest version of Upwork Desktop for Linux.

fprtintd-enroll not responding to touching the fingerprint sensor https://askubuntu.com/questions/1553885/fprtintd-enroll-not-responding-to-touching-the-fingerprint-sensor

I have the following sensor Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0a5c:5865 Broadcom Corp. 58200

I try to run fprintd-enroll, but when I touch the sensor, nothing happens. This is the only thing I can see

I installed the Dell OEM Ubuntu image for my laptop (Dell pro 14 plus, PB14250), and it didn't work there, and then I upgraded to 25.04 (using do-release-upgrade, I am still on the same image)

I have this in my additional drivers section enter image description here

In /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-libfprint-2-device-broadcom-cv3plus.rules I can see my sensor

which makes sense because fprintd recognizes the sensor..

Update: I am also getting the following logs before I touch the sensor

(fprintd:7097): libfprint-device-DEBUG: 14:35:40.371: Updated temperature model after 0.00 seconds, ratio 0.26 -> 0.26, active 1 -> 1, FP_TEMPERATURE_COLD -> FP_TEMPERATURE_COLD

by running sudo G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all /usr/libexec/fprintd

which looks like the sensor is starting to capture before I touch it...

gpg-agent is older than us: how to find "us"? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1457995/gpg-agent-is-older-than-us-how-to-find-us

From what I understand, the gpg-agent is older than us warning happens when the gpg-agent version doesn't match the gpg version, often because there are two gpg-agents installed (and sharing the socket). Other answers I saw about this warning usually boil down to uninstalling the old gpg-agent or restarting it after an update. I have the opposite problem: I can't find what is this "us" that has a newer version.

$ pass email
gpg: WARNING: server 'gpg-agent' is older than us (2.2.27 < 2.2.32)

It's not just with pass, any use of gpg shows the warning. As far as I can tell, the only gpg and gpg-agent are the ones from the ubuntu repository:

$ gpgconf
gpg:OpenPGP:/usr/bin/gpg
gpg-agent:Private Keys:/usr/bin/gpg-agent
scdaemon:Smartcards:/usr/lib/gnupg/scdaemon
gpgsm:S/MIME:/usr/bin/gpgsm
dirmngr:Network:/usr/bin/dirmngr
pinentry:Passphrase Entry:/usr/bin/pinentry

When I use gpg, it is indeed those binaries that I'm calling:

$ which gpg
/usr/bin/gpg

$ which gpg-agent
/usr/bin/gpg-agent

They are both version 2.2.27:

$ gpg --version
gpg (GnuPG) 2.2.27
libgcrypt 1.9.4

$ gpg-agent --version
gpg-agent (GnuPG) 2.2.27
libgcrypt 1.9.4

If I uninstall gpg-agent, I can't use my gpg key anymore:

$ sudo apt remove gpg-agent
$ pass email
gpg: decryption failed: No secret key

If I uninstall gpg, there's no other gpg:

$ sudo apt remove gpg
$ gpg --version
Command 'gpg' not found, but can be installed with:
sudo apt install gpg

I tried to find if there was any other gpg binary in the path (I used to have newer versions installed with guix), and there aren't:

$ for folder in $PATH
$     find $folder -name "gpg*"
$ end
/usr/bin/gpg
/usr/bin/gpg-agent
/usr/bin/gpg-connect-agent
/usr/bin/gpg-wks-server
/usr/bin/gpgcompose
/usr/bin/gpgconf
/usr/bin/gpgparsemail
/usr/bin/gpgsm
/usr/bin/gpgsplit
/usr/bin/gpgtar
/usr/bin/gpgv

I ran gpgconf --kill all, systemctl --user restart gpg-agent, restarted the computer many times, but the warning persists.

So how do I find this mysterious gpg with version 2.2.32, or what else could be causing the warning?

Carbon X1 Gen 10 Lenovo not detecting monitor through usb - c connection? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1435932/carbon-x1-gen-10-lenovo-not-detecting-monitor-through-usb-c-connection

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS: bpfilter read fail: 0 when shutting down w/kernel 5.16.13 https://askubuntu.com/questions/1397886/ubuntu-20-04-lts-bpfilter-read-fail-0-when-shutting-down-w-kernel-5-16-13

Installed Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS on an Acer Swift 3 notebook (model SF314-42-R6T7). With the included 5.13.0-30 and also the newer 5.13.0-35 generic kernels, Suspend did not work correctly. Machine would Suspend with a press of the power button, but there was a long delay - up to a minute or so - for the machine to wake up after pressing the power button again.

I installed a newer kernel, 5.16.13 and now Suspend works as expected (except when closing the lid with an external monitor connected, but that's for another thread). However, when doing either a restart or shutdown, I get a minute or more of zillions of messages like the following:

[114.588698] bpfilter read fail: 0

I believe the number is system uptime. I get these messages constantly for as much as a minute and a half before the machine finally restarts or shuts off.

So far I tried:

--rebooting into the older kernels (5.13.0 and 5.13.35) using the GRUB menu. with both choices, Suspend again doesn't work right, but I don't get the bpfilter messages when shutting down or restarting.

So it seems like this bpfilter problem was definitely introduced with the newer kernel.

Going back to the older 5.13 kernel(s) does fix the bpfilter messages, but then Suspend does not work properly.

Is there any way to get rid of the bpfilter messages which are delaying shutdown, while keeping the 5.6.13 kernel so that Suspend works properly?

Ubuntu freeze on boot purple screen https://askubuntu.com/questions/1143309/ubuntu-freeze-on-boot-purple-screen

After a day of restarting my computer i finally given up. I had Ubuntu 18.10 installed and worked perfectly and then i got the upgrade prompt and upgraded to 19.04. The upgrade crashed and after that the system was still booting except 80% of the time. Most of the boots resulted in a purple screen and that is all. I tried everything on the web and nothing seams to work. It is very very random. Couldn't find a way to see where it hangs. The frozen boots fo not appear in the journal. If i try to boot the recovery both messages appear so loads the kernel and the other thing and then it hangs. I reinstalled Ubuntu 18.10 (with updates) and had the same problem. I did the upgrade (which this time worked) to 19.04 and same problem. Now I installed Ubuntu 18.04.2 without any updates and i got it working 4/4 boots. I did the updates 400ish mb of updates and then started doing the same thing with the purple screen. I reinstalled the 18.04.2 and didn't do the updates.

I have no other options than to hope.. I have a Zenbook UX433FA and dualboot with Windows. I guess it is one of the packages that gets updated on 18.04.2 but i don't know which one.

Thank you.

edit: before the 18.10 reinstall i did a fresh reinstall of 19.04

How to create a bootable USB from a macOS dmg file? https://askubuntu.com/questions/974614/how-to-create-a-bootable-usb-from-a-macos-dmg-file

I badly need to install macOS Sierra in a Macbook Pro (early 2015). I accidentally erase the contents of it's hard drive. The only option I have is using Internet Recovery, but I don't want to waste Internet bandwidth and the fact my connection is very very very very very slow.

I only have:

  • Ubuntu 15.10-installed computer
  • 64GB USB Flash Drive
  • DMG file: Install macOS Sierra.dmg
  • DMG file: InstallESD.dmg extracted from the DMG file mentioned above
  • GParted Partition Editor
  • dmg2img package, which is used to convert DMG to ISO
  • hfsprogs package, which is used by GParted to create a partition having a HFS+ file system

I have tried:

  • Converting the DMG files to ISO
  • Formatting the USB Flash Drive with GPT as the partition table
  • Creating a partition of an HFS+ file system on the USB Flash Drive
  • Unmounting the USB Flash Drive before I issued the command below
  • Issuing a command $ sudo dd bs=4M if=/path/to/converted.iso of=/dev/sdb && sync

Supposedly, I already had a bootable USB that will install macOS sierra. But when I plugged it in the Macbook Pro, turned on the computer, and pressed the alt/option key (which will give me options what drive to boot), only the Internet Recovery was the option. I was expecting the bootable USB to show up.

I would like to know the correct way of creating a bootable USB, for the DMG file, in Ubuntu. Let me know what I am missing.

How to disable my inboard ( intel ) graphic card https://askubuntu.com/questions/726169/how-to-disable-my-inboard-intel-graphic-card

I'm pretty new to linux, but I did my best to obtain all information regarding my issue so maybe someone could help out.

I have an HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook, with Ubuntu 14.04 manually installed.

The log of lspci | grep VGA is:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF108M [GeForce GT 630M] (rev ff)

I need to disable the Intel graphic card and only use my NVIDIA, as currently I'm pretty sure the NVIDIA is not in use.

From lsmod I see it uses the i915 module. I tried blacklisting that module in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf but that didn't really work because i still couldn't use the NVIDIA card for display.

I can't enable NVIDIA from BIOS, nor disable intel.

So what I'm looking for is a solution allowing me to use the power of my NVIDIA laptop, as currently the graphics are pretty bad due to the intel usage.

Thanks

Unload saa7164 module for Hauppauge 2250, and stop tvheadend to suspend Ubuntu 15.04 https://askubuntu.com/questions/724052/unload-saa7164-module-for-hauppauge-2250-and-stop-tvheadend-to-suspend-ubuntu-1

I'm a noob when it comes to using systemd. I'm running Ubuntu 15.04 with the Hauppauge 2250 TV tuner. Unfortunately, the driver/module for the 2250, "saa7164", is not compatible with suspend/resume so live TV will not work after resuming. So I'm using the following file to stop/resume tvheadend and saa7164:

sudo gedit /lib/systemd/system-sleep/50_tvheadend

Which contains the following scipt:

#!/bin/sh
case "$1" in
  pre/*)
    echo "Entering sleep..." >  /tmp/sleep.log
    echo "Entering sleep"
    cat /proc/acpi/wakeup >> /tmp/sleep.log
    service tvheadend stop
    sleep 1
    modprobe -r tveeprom
    modprobe -r dvb_core
    modprobe -r v4l2_common
    modprobe -r videodev
    modprobe -r saa7164
    sleep 3
    echo "After modprobe..."  >> /tmp/sleep.log
    cat /proc/acpi/wakeup >> /tmp/sleep.log
    ;;
  post/*)
    echo "Awaking from sleep..." >>  /tmp/sleep.log
    echo "Waking up"
    modprobe saa7164
    modprobe videodev
    modprobe v4l2_common
    modprobe dvb_core
    modprobe tveeprom
    sleep 3
    echo "After modprobe..."  >> /tmp/sleep.log
    service tvheadend start
    sleep 1
        \cat /proc/acpi/wakeup >> /tmp/sleep.log
    ;;
esac

For good measure, I made the file executable by everyone:

sudo chmod 755 /lib/systemd/system-sleep/50_tvheadend

But this didn't work. So I ran the commands to start and stop tvheadend in terminal, which worked. But when I tried to stop the saa7164 driver in terminal using "modprobe -r saa7164", it errored. So I followed these instructions on how to unload a kernel module which is in use, but my script attempted to unload all the modules listed in "lsmod | grep saa7164" and failed. So I attempted to run the commands in terminal, as follows:

htpc@htpc-desktop:~$ sudo modprobe -r saa7164
modprobe: FATAL: Module saa7164 is in use

htpc@htpc-desktop:~$ lsmod | grep saa7164
saa7164               131072  -1
tveeprom               24576  1 saa7164
dvb_core              126976  1 saa7164
v4l2_common            16384  1 saa7164
videodev              159744  2 saa7164,v4l2_common

htpc@htpc-desktop:~$ sudo modprobe -r tveeprom
modprobe: FATAL: Module tveeprom is in use.

htpc@htpc-desktop:~$ lsmod | grep tveeprom
tveeprom               24576  1 saa7164

How do I unload the saa7164 driver/module?

How to force Ubuntu to detect external display? https://askubuntu.com/questions/707422/how-to-force-ubuntu-to-detect-external-display

My laptop recognises external display devices if I connect them before booting the system, but many times it doesn't if I connect while the system is running. In this case, rebooting naturally solves the problem.

Is there a way to force Ubuntu to detect external displays? Opening up the display menu and pressing "Detect displays" does nothing.

Installing Samsung Xpress M2825DW drivers on Kubuntu 12.04 https://askubuntu.com/questions/424310/installing-samsung-xpress-m2825dw-drivers-on-kubuntu-12-04

I'm having trouble with installing printer drivers. I tried to find them in the data base and could not find them. So I downloaded the linux drivers from samsung.com (http://www.samsung.com/de/support/model/SL-M2825DW/SEE-downloads#) and then used the .ppd-file. The error message was: Package missing: "/usr/lib/cups/filter/rastertospl".

Where can I find this package?

Geforce gt650m laptop driver https://askubuntu.com/questions/307452/geforce-gt650m-laptop-driver

Ubuntu was working with default mesa graphic drivers. I tried to install nvidia driver for my geforce gt650m. I installed different versions of nvidia 319, 310, etc. All of them installed but my entire UI system crashed. Now my login screen looks so small, i don't have desktop or unity.

I am running 13.04.

My story about the Nvidia drivers: At first apt-get install nvidia-current, removed it later.

Then i just downloaded nvidia 319 310 313 different versions with wget stopped gdm and just run ./NVIDIA

How to disable mouse scrolltabs ubuntu chrome https://askubuntu.com/questions/250619/how-to-disable-mouse-scrolltabs-ubuntu-chrome

When I hover on tabs in chrome and scroll the mouse wheel, the tabs are changing focus. This feature is really annoying for me and i want to turn it off. Any ideas?

P.S. The way I usually close an opened tab is to hover the pointer over that tab and click the wheel (also known as middle button). This feature is kind of a convention and is available in many applications.

Printing Comments with PDF https://askubuntu.com/questions/46804/printing-comments-with-pdf

Is there a way to print the comments that are associated with a pdf on the linux version of Adobe Acrobat 9? Both acroread and evince display the comments just fine, however the linux version of the reader lacks the button in the print dialogue to enable printing comments.

Specifically I'm looking to recreate this feature (image taken from adobe.com) where the comments are printed on a seperate page with lines to the main document indicating where the comment was inserted.

enter image description here

Please Note: I am not asking to modify or write comments and annotations (typically a feature associated with Acrobat Pro), but to merely print them in a conveniently readable way.
