Yeah...I know that already...but I am searching for a question that will answer this kind of issue: "I installed the fglrx driver and successfully entered my desktop session. But I see no panel or dash but just my wall paper" Its a common problem, or is it?
I installed Ubuntu 12.10 and at first when I go to check the system information I used to have (unknown) on the graphic card section, I used the synaptic manager and downloaded the fglrx, after that I restarted my laptop and now I don't have any menus, all of them are gone.
Now I am only using t...
I'm newbie in Linux world but I'm a big fan of Ubuntu.

but then in the answer it says to sudo apt-get something..I am wondering how will a newbie connect to internet through terminal...so that answer must include something about nmcli shouldnt it?

I put user id to -1. But then I want to search the community protected question that will come up if I search "fglrx problem" in AU... Any query for that..?
@AvinashRaj No, it's what you had. I have no idea what you're attempting, why did you write out there?
@fossfreedom ouch, poor mousey.
Actually, some of the MS fonts are fine, it's just the overuse of comics that bugs me. Every damn presentation I have to see some idiot things that using it makes them look younger or something.

@AvinashRaj I saw the answer you have posted here... askubuntu.com/questions/65911/… ... I cant understand much...(Sorry If I am being a nuisance here)....But should you not save "ppa-remove" as "ppa-remove.sh" and then run it with "sudo sh ppa-remove.sh" ??
@JorgeCastro The progress bars and colors work on the apt-get install, remove and upgrade commads.. Or at least the progress bars so. I'm pretty sure the colors do to.
@Braiam and @Seth Yes, that's the one I used. I clicked on a post from the review queue, went to it's actual page and took the post ID from there. OK, I'll try with a different one.
Hi I am new to ubuntu I want to install lights, and have to be root from the terminal I typed:
Su (to become in the root)
but in the terminal it say authentication failure.
Why does Ubuntu not allow the GUI users to login as root at the time of system start up like administrator in Windows?
Why they are restricting us to login only through the terminal?
Those are both similar, but it was more along the lines of why su doesn't work and what to do to become root safely. Mitch's is closest. He isn't asking why the root account is disabled.

I am working on a shell script and python script as well. Python script is passing certain parameters to my shell script and then I am using those parameters in my shell script.

In older versions of Ubuntu when you pressed Ctrl+Alt+L it would lock and blank the screen (start the screensaver). In 14.04 it just locks the screen.
How can I get it to lock AND blank the screen?
i do the same with block after my first epic set of armor. just go in a field with a heavy shield and find a rat. look at it and background the game for an hour or two.
@Mateo - in other news, some of the stock app stuff is coming along nicely. it was mostly for historical back-checking of custom queries with lots of identifiers and running a substantial amount of math on the outputs. i talked it over with a friend who did their degree in machine learning. they seem to think it's a solid, if i can isolate the variables i'm grinding upon.
@Mateo yes it is. the approach i'm taking is quite weird, but the more i work out the details - the more i get the "you might be even smarter than i initially gave you credit for...". taking it as a vote of confidence and motivation.
oh, that and don't click on anything when you open a laptop from being locked, I lost focus from the lock screen and ended up typing passwords in stuff on the desktop...

This is longer than most answers, but there is nothing bad in trying.

gives
