Interesting, the #vlc #configuration #file needed to be #reset *again* - appears to be some #bug ... This is #fixed by completely #resetting all configuration. If it happens again I will grab a #screenshot and #write a #coffeespace #article so that people can #search for the #solution online - I cannot personally find any other person talking about how to fix this. Very weird...
#upgraded my #ubuntu #machine earlier, mostly went well. One thing that did go wrong was #virtualbox was unable to install the #extensionpack (but I was able to correct this post #install ) and then #vlc #corrupted its settings, so I had to #reset the #preferences ... Anyway, there is always *some* kind of #issue in these things, but at least I was actually able to #boot my #machine this time.
Leaving #vlc running during suspend in #gnome #unity #ubuntu logs infinite errors to disk until it fills up. The solution is to delete the file using up all that disk space, which in this case means a simple `sudo rm /var/log/syslog`. Problem is, if the file is still in active use, the disk space doesn't get released: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3326..
