If your VLC is showing green and purple insteed of the natural colors when playback video go to the Extended Settings under the Tools menu, Video effects, Basic and adjust the colors options below. Hit the Close button and enjoy vlc.
P.S: I know this is a codec issue but i haven’t found any proper fix to all video playback programs (except mplayer), if you’ve some clues give me a hint please.

Ubuntu Intrepid has a known bug in usplash which it’s not shown at boot/shutdown time. Therefore only text is shown. I haven’t got a solution to use some random usplash but i’ve found one usplash who work’s on Intrepid. Download it and enjoy usplash during boot/shutdown time.
For those who are beginning on a Linux/Unix environment, here is a good website with cheats sheets.

Just like it happened in Hardy, sound cards using chipset SigmaTel STAC9872AK can have no audio output. The solution is:
sudo echo “options snd-hda-intel model=vaio” >> /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-`uname -r`
sudo reboot
Done.

Yesterday after upgraded my VAIO to Intrepid some problems happened. One of them was:
nm-applet just didn’t appear on the gnome-panel and when opening the nm-connection-editor (also as root) an error appeared “can’t modify settings (…) read-only”. After some trys to fix this the most efficient one is:
sudo apt-get remove –purge network-manager
sudo apt-get install network-manager
And, voilá! NetworkManager is working and with no errors.
