I can see that. I think I spend too much time in a terminal to really see the issue. My nvidia hasn't spiked without some 3d wine action as a catalyst.
i'm actually liking openbox. thinking about slapping together a little "me" pseudo-package to pull in all the way i like it stuff once i get it set up in a vm just so
After upgrade to 12.10, Ubuntu starts as normal however the system only loads the desktop background, the left/upper bars is not displayed and Ubuntu reports that gnome-control-center failed.
So, say my wallpaper is a picture of my family or something, or a picture of a flower. But, when I log in, I don't want my family/flower to show on the log in screen but instead be something separate. Is there a possible way to do this?
Like, say, this is my desktop image:
But for my log in scr...
All 12.04 systems, including desktop and server, have an "Ubuntu Error Reporting" daemon called whoopsie. It, along with apport, is part of the Ubuntu error tracker project. While it isn't one of the tools that allow you to report bugs, it is part of the system that processes the bug reports.

@EliahKagan Do you think that answer is enough? --^
@jokerdino I think more information about other tools, and about how to make Apport send a crash bug to Launchpad rather than using Whoopsie, might be helpful. Some of that could be provided in a different answer (by someone else), though. I do think your answer is good and appropriate.
I maintain a few Ubuntu servers and it works great... but, I now have notifications on a few that state there is a new release available and I should run do-release-upgrade.
Since these servers were initially provisioned, I have create a few extra ones that are on the newest version, and, I have...
Now I'm very aware that there are many questions out there that are quite similar to what I'm experiencing, but I have looked through many and I have not found a suitable answer. You are welcome to suggest questions that are similar, but I doubt that it will help.
Getting on to the issue at hand,...
@Takkat Because the related question doesn't have an answer that says how to remove the minimum entropy requirement...and adding an answer with that information would probably not fall within the scope of that question.
I have tried all apt-get commands in terminal... all are deemed useless because the libapt-pkg4.12 and libapt-pkg4.12:i1382 (?) are both broken for some reason///
@jokerdino well, I am not really doing anything at the moment (as I am worried to do it), It is 10.04.3 on a few... and installing the latest LTS in test
@OliveTwist ...I'm not sure. As far as I knew, I haven't really done much installing. I think the last program I installed was like Xscreensaver or something... the last thing I did with the apt was probably installing a indicator or something.
I cannot see the grub loader etc.... Only a blinking cursor for 2 seconds and then reboot again... My files are OK though (speaking through a live cd now)
@jokerdino That's fine - I read the basic release notes and found nothing.... I just see pro Linux guys and I really don't feel like that at all despite doing this for the best part of 6 months now.. If this is what you guys do, then, guess it is the right thing to do
@hakermania I think this is more of a Windows problem. Especially if it messed with the Windows registries. You ought to look in a Windows 7 forum or something similar. I'm sure it would be harder for us to help you here :)
@Mochan I don't have a Windows repair CD and there doesn't seem to be any other option for me rather than fixing it through a live usb. @Takkat This is what I believe. Should I try to re-install grub to the partition it was before?

I would like to set the wallpaper in LightDM, how do I do that?
