I have a strange situation at the moment and I am not sure if the issue lays on the side of the hardware.
I wanted to create a new partition table with Gparted as well as with cfdisk. Both applications confirmed that they created it. But afterwards the table is still not existent, not readable.
This is the error message which always occurs:
Disk /dev/sde doesn't contain a valid partition table
Does anyone have any ideas?
The problem I am having is that some of my compiz settings are lost after a reboot. I am using 13.04 and Unity.
The problem is with the focus-follows-mouse, auto-raise and auto-raise-delay setting.
After a reboot my system forgets about ffm and reverts it back to default click on focus. I exported a working compiz config from another machine (where it works fine) and wanted to import the settings file to the system with the bug but in the compiz backup config there is no ffm setting included and compiz enables the default values.
So how could I solve this issue? Before I do a bug report I wanted to ask here for help if someone knows a work around this situation.
Syslog: on Pastebin
Every time I turn on my webcam and start the screen sharing my Ubuntu 12.04 (Unity 3D) logs out and show me the login screen. The syslog above shows the relevant lines. Does someone know any solution?
Btw: My skype version: Skype 4.0.0.8
I always could connect to my companys Microsoft Lync network which is based on SIP. There is an addon for Pidgin called pidgin-sipe. Everything worked fine unless the company changed something weird.
Now I always get a Read Error when I want to connect.
The debug output shows the following:

Isn't it possible anymore to connect or is this an error of pidgin-sipe?

Yesterday I tried to buy some Gigabytes but there is always a Payment Failure. Am I the only one who's affected or is this a general known problem?
a friend of mine has the same problem like many other users with Ubuntu Precise. With Ubuntu 12.04 wireless is dropping sometimes. He has to reconnect to the wifi SSID.
This is the relevant output of such a drop: http://fixee.org/paste/8hwpt89/
Would be nice to get help if someone knows why this occurs.

On Windows I can set the input Hz to 48000. With 41000 Hz my microphon makes annoying sounds. With 48000 Hz this is solved in Windows. So how can I set the frequency in Ubuntu globally for all application, especially Skype?
I have MSN, XMPP, SIPE (with plugin) and Skype (with plugin) in my Pidgin configured. If I open Pidgin through Unity launcher, Unity menu or with autostart sometimes the Pidgin main contact window is hidden. If someone writes a message, the message window appears. Only by killing the task with "kill -9 **" helps and brings the window back to desktop by restart of Pidgin. Only closing Pidgin and starting Pidgin again doesn't work.
Thanks for helping.
My friend has a new Asus G53SW notebook with Ubuntu Oneiric installed. Sometimes the touchpad is weird and hangs around or you can't click on things. It's quite unusable.
How can I fix this weird behaviour, are there any "drivers" for the touchpad?
In Evolution Mail there is an option to create an account for Exchange with an OWA address. Does someone have an idea how to get the required data from Office 365 to get working in Evolution? Microsoft support did not help and refused my help request because of the word Ubuntu in the post ;)
The OWA url is https://amsprd0302.outlook.com/owa but I do not know what username and mailbox name to use.
