[Qgis-user] Ubuntu 14.04 and qgis

[Lens Paul]

Hi Randy,

Your message came when I was about to send a message explaining my problems.

Using QGIS 2.2+Grass on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, installed in accordance with 
the instructions given on the "alldownloads.html" page on qis.org.

At first, it worked very well. QGIS could even open a project file which 
didn't  open on another computer.
After several boots,  Ubuntu began to display an internal error message, 
than it hanged on next reboot, displaying "running in low graphics mode" 
(the graphic card is in the chipset: "Intel(R) 82945G Express Chipset 
Family").

After reinstallation of Ubuntu and QGIS, QGIS 2.2 opened the project 
file but could not load the layers.
In fact, it adds "1" to the partition name (in this case the NTFS 
partition named "R3SERVE" becomes "R3SERVE1") and whence it doesn't 
recognise the path. A weird behaviour since Ubuntu still displays the 
correct name "R3SERVE"!

Here is a sample (I deleted several lines) of the messages displayed in 
"Terminal":

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Besides after reboot, Ubuntu displays again an internal error problem.  
I suppose it is going to hang again on the next reboots.


Hope this helps,


Paul
