The paignton meets are generally more casual,  while we can help with
technical issues, it is worth noting the venue is up a flght of steps, 
so it is not very practical to carry a pc + monitor etc up those steps, 
given that the seafront is also closed to traffic during the summer. 
Laptops are not an issue.

Can you give us some more information on the issue e.g

is it a fresh install did this problem start perhaps after upgrading to
12.04 ?

in the latter case you may want to check to see which codecs etc have
been removed during upgrade.  Look under additional drivers.   Failing
that if no one else can help or suggest things.   I am planning on
holding the June meeting at Paignton cricket club as that should allow
people to bring PC's in to the venue easier.

Where are you based ?


hope this helps.

Paul
