Since upgrading to Jaunty, I have a had a series of issues. During the upgrade, the only error was b34cutter. Unfortunately, as this was the network connection, it meant that I couldn't report the bug, as I had lost network connection! This has since been restored using ethernet, but, the issues are as follows:
1. Low volume, High pitched screech through the sound as I log in, seems to be connected to Wi-Fi, if the card is disabled, the noise doesn't happen.
2. Unable to type sudo password in any of the boxes, so, have had to use apt-get command to update. If I do try to use a sudo box, I can't type in anything else afterwards.
3. The window frames are all missing, I cannot move, resize minimise etc. And nothing shows on the taskbar.
4. I only have 1 desktop, no amount of adding extra desktops changes anything!
I have tried deleting the .kde & .kde4 folders in my home folder, this has not changed the window issue, I can't sudo, so I can't use the hardware manager to check the wi-fi card out, and I haven't had time to hack around in the terminal yet to see if the wi-fi card is an issue, trying to get the basics of the window working properly first.
This is on a Dell Vostro 1500.
I have so far managed to guide 3 others from the dark side into the light of Linux, but, have had to advise all 3 to stay with Intrepid until I am sorted, don't want them ending up with a barely usable system like myself!!
Please help!!
