I think the fact that I can't access the site in a Linux browser but can in a windows browser is probably conclusive. I still could have two different problems however. I tried the yet third attempt at syntax modification of the sources.list file and got the same thing. I could be wrong, but it looks unlikely to be a syntax problem

It's variables exported into bash, a kind of where to find the libraries, etc. Surely your GTK from the repos should be turned off and a different GTK (like mine, for example) turned on. That's how it works. You can enter these variable manually, if you want. At first try little GTK programs to...

My system is set up with English as the system language but I and other users of the machine use various keyboard layouts within gnome. If a user does "lock screen", they have to type in their password again, and in this dialog they can click on the keyboard indicator to choose which keyboard layout to use when typing in the password. All good, everything works fine. But , in the main login screen (which looks very similar to...

Only some humour, no bad language required I actually can't make sense of some of the things you say. I know the definitions of the individual words but together they don't communicate a meaning, so I was poking fun at you. And also I enjoy your posts, they take me on a journey into a different kind of thinking of which I am incapable. I need to rip and encode to mkv container: encode to avi container. I need to crop: initially...

I decided to experiment with the ~/.gnome2/session file. As always... Google is your best friend. http://library.gnome.org/admin/system-a ... -3.html.en To restore the default session settings for a user, delete the session file from the home directory of the user. If no user session file is present, the default settings in /usr/share/gnome/default.session are used. I renamed the file, logged out, logged in... issue resolved. So it was due to...

Hi, My Mic is Up, I just check that. When I do the test call in skype, and then listen the test, there is no my voice, but its some noisy siren. Speakers and ringing is fine. EDIT: Just tried to purge skype, and install it again, problem with Mic still persists.
