Yes, a while ago, maybe a year or so. Maybe there have been some
improvements since then? I tried the version available in the Ubuntu
9.04 repositories, so maybe there is a much newer version available
for Ubuntu 10.04. I'll have a look.

... except for the mic in skype...
==========================================
Here is the work-around: Install "PulseAudio Device Chooser" then go to
"Volume Control", "Input Devices"... then unlock the level (slide bar).
Make the settings different... mine is 99/98%. Don't know why this
works or why it isn't FIXED by now, but there you have it.

Thanks. I'll be patient.
Don't forget I can gather information by booting from the 10.04 live
USB and I can also do command line operations when booted with
the old 9.10 kernel (use apt-get, for instance).

Tried it and it doesn't seem to suit my needs at all. Seems to be made
with DVD etc in mind and that's not what I had in mind.

Some questions:
1. Is your ISP in the UK?
2. Is it any one on Virgin Media's companies?
3. Have you recently downloaded your .iso file of (K)ubuntu through
torrent?
4. Have you downloaded software/music/videos lately?

I downloaded the flashplayer from adobe (in the tarball - not the deb!). I then
manually installed it. Everything is working now.

Thanks, we will give this a try.
Here is information I was entering earlier but did not finish before I sent it.
I had her restart and enter recovery and then recover broken packages,
something like that. She did that and upon resume normal boot she
noted that I had her restart and enter recovery and then she noticed
upon boot that 1) "pulse configured for user session" was not checked
and "speech dispatcher configured for user session" was also not checked

Yes, most (if not all) dv cameras need Firewire to grab dv, USB is usually
only capable of grabbing still shots from the camera. This may or course
have changed since last I looked at it but unless you have managed to pull
dv of the camera using USB in Windows then you have no chance under Lucid.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
For reasons described in this thread,
http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3111517.0
I am unable to use either the gdm or kdm login managers.
I can start KDE from the terminal on lucid with
startx /usr/bin/startkde
Does anyone know how to start GNOME from a terminal session
analogous to starting KDE above, e.g., is there a
startx /usr/bin/start_gnome_from_terminal
command?
Thanks!
Charlie

well, that could mean your Atheros wifi-card is flakey, or the router is
rejecting you, either because of the torrents, or because it is out of
memory due to all incoming connections.
