I did run apport-collect from a VT (as nothing other than the dasher icons appear, cf screenshot), and that is what I meant by terminal windows are fine. Should have said tty? Try it out: apport-collect will mumble about launching a browser and that's as far as it gets - yes, from a VT.
I find "please send me the log file called foo.log" a perfectly acceptible question, and exactly what I am happy to provide. (I don't find log files a waste - I do find "run this script that we hope works everywhere" a waste) "You don't mention if you have proprietary drivers" Well, from the subject of the bug, and the way to repeat: all I did was boot the beta1 CD. You tell me if it contains proprietary drivers. FWIW I just booted an opensuse 11.4 + gnome 3 CD on said box and can use it without problems. No doubt you will say "open another bug as this is a separate problem", but the point of all this originally was simply to fsck a duff ext3fs disk. The oneric beta1 cd failed to detect the SiI3124 SATALink based sata card the disk was plugged into. Opensuse did detect it, I ran fsck, now I can send the disk off under waranty, and I don't need to worry about any of this any more :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/839573 Title: blank main window oneric beta1 live cd - unity OK To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/839573/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
