Specifically, what happens in my particular case (I have a first generation Mac Mini) is that the text Plymouth screen will change background colors from cyan to black. Typically this is a sign that the boot process is proceeding normally. Usually some extra text will show up , but currently there

I have to do the same thing when I'm in the classroom and we're watching a long music performance on MPlayer.

Not only is this problem causing sudden shutdowns or suspensions of the netbook (sometimes with embarrassing results like in a classroom situation where I have spent time talking about the benefits of open source software), but it causes the power-management records to be wildly inaccurate, even wh

I'm not sure why this bug is now on an "invalid" status as of May 8. I'm having issues with this bug too, although I'm not as good as the previous people as far as trying to trace it.

I'm having the same issue with my Aspire One and the Lucid RC. It wouldn't be a problem except that when the power manager reports the wrong percentage of power (believing that my battery can hold 270 watts of power when it only holds about 48) the computer automatically shuts down (that's the sett

Thank you for making the change. I admit that I'm relatively new at this and was confused about the "NOT UBUNTU" even though it said Lucid. So I thought it was for something specific to Lucid but somehow not a general Ubuntu issue, which is confusing me more now that I'm trying to explain it. I apo

Pat, I remember having a ton of DNS issues for a while (they're all cleared up, but for the life of me I wouldn't be able to tell you how), and all the resolv.conf stuff sounds all too familiar. I use static DNS (OpenDNS is a good DNS server, Google has a DNS server too) and I haven't had any trou

Curt, I wish I had a solution for you. Pat's workaround was successful for me. In fact, I'm using the Quicksilver connection right now to send this. Ideally, it would seem to me that the GNOME folks would see what's different between GNOME's tools (network-manager and modem-manager) and wicd, make

Thank you for posting the workaround.
